Your tablet comes equipped with an easy-to-use touch-
screen which allows access to the tablet’s functions.
Use your nger tip to touch the area of the screen where
a control icon is displayed. If you touch and hold the
screen, it will register as a continuous button press.
 Toavoiddamagingthescreen,donottouchit
with excessive force or with any object other
thanyournger(orastylus).Forbestresponse,
makesureyourhandsarecleanbeforeusing
thetouchscreencontrols.
Protective Film
A thin lm has been applied to the touchscreen to protect
it during shipping. The protective lm should be removed
before use. To remove it, simply take a corner of the lm
and peel it away from the screen.
Touchscreen Actions
You can control the functions of the tablet by using
the touchscreen in combination with the three touch
keys located on the bezel. To control the tablet with the
touchscreen, use your ngertip to manipulate icons,
buttons, menu items, the on-screen keyboard, and other
items displayed on the screen.
You can perform the following actions on the touchscreen
using your ngertip.
Touch: To activate an on-screen item (e.g.,
application icons, buttons, menu
items, and the letter/symbols of the
on-screen keyboard), simply touch
them with your ngertip.
Touch and
Hold:
Some on-screen items have an
alternate action if you touch and hold
it (e.g., opening an alternate menu, or
to activate the drag function). To touch
and hold an item, touch the item and
do not lift your ngertip until the action
occurs.
Drag: Drag an on-screen item to change its
position (e.g., an application icon on
the home screen).
To drag an item, touch and hold it for
a moment, then without lifting your
ngertip, move your ngertip on the
screen until the item reaches its target
destination.

Page 9 Getting To Know The Internet Tablet
English
Swipe: Swipe up/down on the screen to scroll
through a list. On some screens,
you may be able to swipe left/right to
change the view.
To swipe, touch the screen and then
quickly move your ngertip across the
screen without lifting your ngertip.
Do not pause on the screen with your
ngertip at the initial point of contact
or you may accidentally drag an item
instead.
Double-tap: Quickly tap the screen twice on a
webpage or other application screen
to zoom (the application must support
the double-tap/zoom function). Within
the browser, double-tapping a web-
page section will cause the browser to
zoom and t that section to the width
of the screen.

The tablet contains a sensor that will automatically
change the orientation of most screens as you rotate the
tablet. The sensor works best when the tablet is rotated
perpendicular to the ground (i.e., when the tablet is held
upright and not fat on its back).
The orientation sensor can be turned on and off in the
Display settings menu.

This tablet can utilize Wi-Fi data networks to connect to the Internet. Wireless Wi-Fi technology can provide Internet access
at distances of over 300 feet; however, this distance can be affected by your surrounding environment and Wi-Fi router.

In order to connect to the Internet, you will need the
following:
1. A wireless router or access point with a broad-
band Internet connection
The wireless router must support Wi-Fi 802.11b/g connec-
tions. If the router supports 802.11n, make sure that it has
been congured to acc qept 802.11b/g connections as well.
 Aminimumconnectionspeedof64Kbpsisrec-
ommended.Fasterspeedswillenableabetter

2. The wireless router network settings
You will need to know the name of your network (SSID),
as well as the password or other credentials if your
network is secured. These settings can usually be found
on the administration webpage of your wireless router.
Please refer to your wireless router’s documentation for
help, or ask your network administrator for details.
