into lock mode. The device automatically gets locked if it is not used for a
specified period. This helps to prevent accidental taps and saves battery
power.
To unlock the device, press the Power/Lock Key and swipe the screen in
any direction.

it on or off.

•
For better recognition performance, tap on the centre of the screen, but not on
the bottom or on the top of the screen.
Knock Code
The Knock Code feature allows you to create your own unlock code using
a combination of knocks on the screen. You can access the Home screen
directly when the screen is off by tapping the same sequence on the
screen.
NOTE
•
If you enter the wrong Knock Code 5 times, it will compulsorily take you to
your Google account log in/backup PIN.
