Section 1: Getting Started

This section explains how to start using your tablet by configuring your hardware and activating your service.

Setting Up Your Tablet

Prior to use it is necessary to install both the SIM card and the memory card into their corresponding compartments.

Warning!:

Please note that a touch screen responds best to a light touch from the pad of your finger. Using excessive force or a metallic object when pressing on the touch screen may damage the tempered glass surface and void the warranty. For more information, refer to “Standard Limited Warranty” on page 135.

Installing the SIM Card

When you subscribe to a cellular network, you are provided with a plug-in SIM card loaded with your subscription details, such as your PIN, available optional services, and many others features.

Important!:

The plug-in SIM card information and its contacts can be easily damaged by scratching or bending, so be careful when handling, inserting, or removing the card. Keep all SIM cards out of reach of small children.

䊳

Carefully slide the SIM card into the SIM card socket (as

shown) until the card locks into place.

•

Make sure that the card’s gold contacts face downward and that the upper-left angled corner of the card is positioned as shown.

Note:

If the card is not inserted correctly, the tablet does not detect the SIM card. Re-orient the card back into the slot if the SIM is not detected.

Installing the Memory Card

Your device lets you use a microSD™ (SD) or microSDHC™ card to expand available memory space. This secure digital card enables you to exchange images, music, and data between SD-compatible devices. This type of memory card is designed for use with this tablet and other devices.

䊳

Push the microSD card into the slot until it clicks (as shown).

•

Make sure the microSD’s gold contact pins face downward and the

card is securely inserted.

Note:

Your tablet has been tested to support up to a 32GB memory card.

For more information on Memory Cards, see “Memory Card” on page 27.

Charging the Battery

Your tablet is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. The Travel Adapter that is used to charge the battery, is included with your tablet.

Note:

Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, browser use, and other variables may reduce the battery’s talk and standby times.

Although you can use the device while the battery is charging, doing so will require additional charging time.

Note:

You must fully charge the battery before using your tablet for the first time. A discharged battery recharges fully in approximately 6 hours.

Using the Travel Adapter

To use the travel adapter to charge your battery, follow these steps:

1. Carefully slide the Outlet Connector into the Charging Head

(1). Make sure the connection is secure.

2. Connect the USB cable to the Charging Head (2).

Getting Started 5

Insert the USB cable into the device’s Charger/Accessory

jack.

4. Plug the charging head into a standard AC power outlet.

Low Battery Indicator

When the battery is weak and only a few minutes of talk time remain, the battery icon ( ) blinks and the device sounds a warning tone at regular intervals. In this condition, your tablet conserves its remaining battery power, not by turning off the backlight, but by entering the dimming mode. For a quick check of your battery level, glance at the battery charge indicator located in the upper-right corner of your device’s display. Solid color ( ) indicates a full charge.

When the battery level becomes too low, the tablet automatically turns off.

Switching the Tablet On or Off

1. Press and hold (on the upper right side of the

tablet) until the tablet switches on.

2. Sweep your finger across the glass to unlock the tablet.

Note:

The display language is preset to English at the factory. To change the

language, use the Language menu. For more information, refer to “Changing Your Settings” on page 65.

3. To switch off the tablet, press and hold , until

Using Contacts

Once you have stored email addresses in the Address Book, you can message them easily and quickly by either using their SIM card location number or by using the Search field to locate the entry.

Finding an Address Book Entry

You can store phone numbers and their corresponding names onto your SIM card and tablet’s onboard memory. The two locations are physically separate but are used as a single entity, called the Address Book.

Depending on your particular SIM card, the maximum number of phone numbers the SIM card can store and how they are stored may differ.

Joining Contacts

Joining Contact Information

Many people now maintain multiple email accounts, social networking logins, and other similar account information. For example, a Facebook account login name might differ from a corporate email account login because they are maintained separately and for different groups of people.

This device can synchronize with multiple accounts such as Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, Corporate email, and Google. When you synchronize your tablet with these accounts, each account creates a separate contact entry in the Contacts list.

If one of your contacts (Amy Smith, for example) has a regular email account that you maintain in Gmail, but also has a Facebook account under her maiden and married name, as well as a Yahoo! chat account, when you merge these accounts into your Contacts list you can join all of her entries and view the information in one record.

The next time you synchronize your tablet with your accounts, any updates that contacts make to email account names, email addresses, etc. automatically update in your contacts list.

For more information about synchronizing accounts, see “Synchronizing Accounts” on page 39.

1. From the Home screen, tap ➔

2. Tap a contact name (the name you want to link to another

entry).

different name or account information.

3. Press ➔

4. Tap the second contact entry (the entry in which to join).

The second contact is now joined with the first and the account information is merged into one screen.

Note:

The information is still maintained in both entries, but displays in one record for easier viewing when you join the contacts.

5. Tap the joined contacts to view the contact information you

joined. The contacts and information displays with an icon next to the contact name to indicate what type of account information is contained in the entry.

Unjoining a Contact

1. From the Home screen, tap ➔

2. Tap a contact name (the account name from which you

want to unlink an entry).

3. Tap

from the Joined Contacts

area.

4. Tap the minus sign next to entry in which you want to

unjoin. The contact is now separated and no longer displays in the merged record screen.

Marking a Contact as Default

When you use messaging type applications, the application needs to know which information is primary (default) in a contact entry list. For example, you may have three different contact records for John Smith, so the application will be looking for the “default” number or entry.

1. From the Home screen, tap ➔

Wi-Fi

About Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi (short for "wireless fidelity"and sometimes referred to as wifi) is a term used for certain types of Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN). These device types use an 802.11 wireless specification to transmit and receive wireless data. Wi-Fi communication requires access to an existing and accessible Wireless Access Point (WAP). These WAPs can either be Open (unsecured) as within most Hot Spots, or Secured (requiring knowledge of the Router name and password).

Turning Wi-Fi On

By default, your device’s Wi-Fi feature is turned off. Turning Wi-Fi on makes your device able to discover and connect to compatible in-range WAPs.

1. From the Home screen, tap ➔

Pairing Bluetooth Devices

The Bluetooth pairing process allows you to establish trusted connections between your device and another Bluetooth device. When you pair devices, they share a passkey, allowing for fast, secure connections while bypassing the discovery and authentication process.

To pair your device with another Bluetooth device:

1. Verify your Bluetooth is active.

2. Tap

Scan devices

. Your device will display a list of

discovered in-range Bluetooth devices.

The external device will then have to also accept the

connection and enter your device’s PIN code. Once successfully paired to an external device,

appears within the Status area.

Note:

Due to different specifications and features of other Bluetooth-

compatible devices, display and operations may be different, and functions such as transfer or exchange may not be possible with all Bluetooth compatible devices.

Note:

Pairing between two Bluetooth devices is a one-time process. Once a

pairing has been created, the devices will continue to recognize their partnership and exchange information without having to re-enter a passcode again.

To disconnect a paired device: Disconnecting a paired device breaks the connection between

the device and your tablet, but retains the knowledge of the pairing. At a later point when you wish to reconnect the device, there is no need to setup the connection information again.

1. Verify your Bluetooth is active.

2. From the Bluetooth settings page, tap the previously paired

device (from the bottom of the page).

3. Ta p

Disconnect

Note:

Disconnections are manually done but often occur automatically if the paired device goes out of range of your tablet or it is powered off.

To delete a paired device (unpair): Deleting a device from your list removes its “connection record”

and upon reconnection would require that you re-enter all the previous pairing information.

1. Verify your Bluetooth is active.

2. From the Bluetooth settings page, touch and hold the

name of the previously paired device (from the bottom of the page). This opens the connected device’s menu options.
