Get Started
The following topics give you all the information you need to set up your tablet and wireless
service the first time.
Your Tablet at a Glance
The following illustration outlines your tablet’s primary external features and buttons.
Set Up Your Tablet
You must first charge the battery to begin setting up your tablet.
1. Charge your battery.

Get Started 2
Plug the USB connector into the charger/accessory jack on your tablet.
Plug the USB cable into the AC adapter, and then plug the AC adapter into an
electrical outlet. Fully charging a battery may take up to three hours.
Note: Your tablet’s battery should have enough charge for the tablet to turn on and find a signal.
You should fully charge the battery as soon as possible.
2. Press and hold the Power button to turn the tablet on.
If your tablet is activated, it will turn on and search for Sprint service.
If your tablet is not yet activated, see Activate Your Tablet for more information.
Activate Your Tablet
Follow the instructions below to activate your tablet if it has not already been activated.
Depending on your account or how and where you purchased your tablet, it may be ready to
use or you may need to activate it on your Sprint account.
●If you purchased your tablet at a Sprint Store, it is probably activated and ready to use.
●If you received your tablet in the mail and it is for a new Sprint account or a new line of
service, it is designed to activate automatically.
When you turn the tablet on for the first time, you should see a Hands Free
Activation screen, which may be followed by a PRL Update screen and a Firmware
Update screen. Follow the onscreen instructions to continue.
