The Basics

When you can’t recall your unlock sequence

 If you set a screen lock, you have the opportunity to unlock the screen 

by entering your Backup PIN to unlock the screen after 5 attempts.

 

NOTE

 

 

A warning message is displayed after the 9th attempt.

If you didn’t activate a Google Account on the tablet and you forgot your 
Backup PIN, you have to perform a hard reset.

 

CAUTION

   

If you perform a hard reset, all user applications and user data will be deleted from 

your tablet's memory.

The KnockON feature allows you to double-tap the screen to easily turn it 
on or off.

To turn the screen on

1.  Double-tap the center of the Lock screen to turn the screen on.

2.  Unlock the screen or access any of the available shortcuts or widgets.

To turn the screen off

1.  Double-tap an empty area of the Home screen or the Status Bar.

2.  The screen will turn off.

 NOTE

recognition rate may decrease.

Unlocking your screen using the Knock Code feature 

The Knock Code feature allows you to create your own unlock code using a 
combination of three to eight knocks (or taps) on the screen. 

 While the screen is off, tap the same sequence you established
