Getting Started 1
Section 1: Getting Started
This section explains how to start using your tablet by configuring
your hardware and activating your service.
Setting Up Your Tablet
Prior to use it is necessary to install both the SIM card and the
memory card into their corresponding compartments.
Warning!: Please note that a touch screen responds best to a light touch from
the pad of your finger. Using excessive force or a metallic object
when pressing on the touch screen may damage the tempered
glass surface and void the warranty. For more information, refer to
“Warranty Information” on page 119.
Installing the SIM Card
When you subscribe to a cellular network, you are provided with a
plug-in SIM card loaded with your subscription details, such as
your PIN, available optional services, and many others features.
Important!: The plug-in SIM card can be easily damaged by scratching or
bending, so be careful when handling, inserting, or removing the
card. Keep all SIM cards out of reach of small children.
Carefully slide the SIM card into the SIM card socket (as
shown) until the card locks into place.
• Make sure that the card’s gold contacts face downward and that
the upper-left angled corner of the card is positioned as shown.
Note: If the card is not inserted correctly, the tablet does not detect the SIM
card. Re-orient the card back into the slot if the SIM is not detected.
Installing the Memory Card
Your device lets you use a microSD(SD) or microSDHCcard
to expand available memory space. This secure digital card
enables you to exchange images, music, and data between SD-
compatible devices. This type of memory card is designed for use
with this tablet and other devices.

warning tone at regular intervals. In this condition, your tablet
conserves its remaining battery power by dimming the backlight.

color ( ) indicates a full charge.
