Activate Your Device

Charge the Battery

Your device’s battery should have enough charge to
get started, but it’s a good idea to charge it fully
before you get going. Insert the USB cable into the
charging head. Insert the small end of the USB cable
into the charger/accessory jack at the top of the tablet
and plug the charging head into an electrical outlet.

Before turning on your device:

If you purchased your device at a Sprint

Store, it is probably activated and ready

to use.

If you received your device in the mail, and

it is for a new Sprint account or a new line
of service, your device is designed to

activate automatically when you irst turn
it on. You will see a Hands Free Activation
screen at startup. When it’s inished, tap
OK to continue. To conirm your activation,
launch the Web browser.

If you received your device in the mail and

it is going to be activated on an existing
number (you’re swapping devices), go

to sprint.com/activate and follow the
instructions. When you have inished,
launch the Web browser to conirm
your activation.

If your device is still not activated, visit
sprint.com/support for assistance. If you do not
have access to the Internet, call Sprint Customer
Service at 1-888-211-4727 from another phone.
