Basic Operations / The Home Screen at a Glance
Charging the Tablet
It is best to charge the tablet before the battery
icon is blank, or when the tablet pop-up indicates
that it needs charging. To charge the tablet, plug
in the AC adapter to a convenient outlet, then
plug-in the tablet to the AC adapter. If the tablet
is on, the battery icon will pulse, showing that it is
being charged. It is fully charged when an icon
of a full battery is displayed on the screen.
A complete battery charge will take
approximately 5 hours. It is normal for the tablet
to be warm to the touch as it is being charged.
Connecting to a Computer for File Transfer
The included USB cable can be used to connect the
tablet to any PC computer, for the purpose of transferring
music, picture and other data files between the two units.
Charging the Tablet
Upon pressing the Power button for about 3 seconds to
start the tablet, there will be a series of screens, and then
you will see this locked Start-up screen:
Press and hold your finger on the lock icon, and two
options will appear. Drag it to the right, so that the circle
clicks onto the unlock icon. The tablet will be unlocked,
and will proceed to the Home screen. Drag it to the left
to go directly to the Camera app. If you do nothing, the
tablet will return to Standby mode.
