Troubleshooting 

If you encounter problems while using the tablet, or if it performs 
abnormally, you can refer to the chart below. If your particular problem 
cannot be resolved using the information in the chart, contact the dealer 
where you purchased the tablet. 

Problem 

Possible causes 

Possible solution 

Poor reception  The network signal is too weak at 

your current location, for 
example, in a basement or near a 
tall building, because wireless 
transmissions cannot effectively 
reach it. 

Move to a location where 
the network signal can be 
properly received. 

The network is busy at the 
current time (for example, during 
peak times, there may be too 
much network traffic to handle). 

Avoid using the device at 
such times, or try again after 
waiting a short time. 

You are too far away from a base 
station for your service provider. 

You can request a service 
area map from your service 
provider. 

Unable to 
select certain 
features 

Your service provider does not 
support these features, or you 
have not applied for services that 
provide these features. 

Contact your service 
provider. 

Battery not 
charging 

The battery or battery charger is 
damaged. 

Contact the dealer. 

Problem 

Possible causes 

Possible solution 

The temperature of the tablet is 
below 0°C or higher than 35 °C. 

Adjust the battery charging 
environment to avoid 
extremes of temperature. 

Poor contact between the device 
and charger. 

Check all connectors to 
ensure that all connections 
have been properly made. 

Shortened 
standby time 

The standby time is related to 
your service provider system 
configuration. The same device 
used with different service 
providers’ systems will not 
provide exactly the same length 
of standby time. 

If you are located in an area 
where signaling is weak, 
temporarily power off the 
device. 

The battery is depleted. In high 
temperature environments, 
battery life will be shortened. 

Use a new battery. 

If you are not able to connect to 
the network, the device will 
continue to send out signals as it 
attempts to locate a base station. 
Doing so consumes battery 
power and will consequently 
shorten standby time. 

Change your location to one 
where the network is 
accessible, or temporarily 
turn off your device. 

Cannot turn 
your device on 

Battery power has been 
depleted. 

Recharge the tablet’s 
battery.
