Screen Unlocking:
When the screen is off, you will need to unlock it to resume use. To do this, drag the lock icon across the screen towards the slide lock icon, which is typically located towards the top of the screen where an unlock icon is shown. This action will unlock the tablet and display the home screen.
Applications:
Applications can be accessed from the home screen by tapping their respective icons or by navigating to the Launcher screen, which can be accessed by tapping the ":::" icon on the home screen. The tablet comes with several preinstalled applications for convenience, including:

Additional applications can be downloaded and installed from the device's applications marketplace, through the web browser, or from other sources. To install applications from non-Market sources, the "Unknown sources" option must be enabled in the Application settings menu.
Connecting to the Internet (Wi-Fi):

If automatic setup fails, manual configuration may be required. It is advisable to consult an IT professional or your email provider's website for detailed server information (POP3, IMAP, or Exchange).

Maintenance Features
Troubleshooting:
The manual provides solutions for common issues:
- Wi-Fi Connection Issues: Ensure the wireless network is functional, the tablet is within range of the router, and the security password is correct. Walls and other obstructions can reduce signal strength.
- Device Not Turning On: If the battery charge is critically low, charge the battery. If the issue persists, use a needle or paper clip to press the reset button on the back of the device. Verify that the charger is connected correctly.
- Heat Issues: It is normal for the device to become warm when running multiple applications, using the screen at its brightest setting, or while charging. This should not cause inconvenience.
- System Anomalies/Malfunctions: If the system is not operating correctly, often due to third-party applications, press the RESET button and perform a system reset.
- Email Account/Registration Issues: Ensure the tablet is connected to a Wi-Fi network with internet access. Verify that email settings are entered correctly and that system time and local time are accurate.
- Recording Issues: If the record function is not working, use a needle or paper clip to reset the unit and re-test.
- Short Stand-by Time: Battery duration varies with environmental temperature and service conditions. Use the device at normal temperatures. High volume, Wi-Fi, and frequent use can drain the battery faster.
- No Sound via Earphone: Check if the volume setting is at 0. Test with another audio file to confirm if the original file is broken, which can cause noise or static.
- Color Distortion (Video/Picture): Use a needle or paper clip to reset the unit.
- File Copying Issues: Ensure the device is correctly connected to the computer, check if memory space is full, and verify that the USB cable is not broken.
- Other Troubles: For other issues, first try resetting the device with a needle or paper clip. If that doesn't work, upgrade the firmware from a PC, restart the device, and then check the function again.
Factory Reset:
Performing a factory reset on Android 6.0 units can take up to 10 minutes. During this process, the screen will continuously display "Android" while the firmware reloads. It is crucial not to turn off the tablet during this state. The tablet will automatically restart once the firmware reloading is complete.
