If you don’t use the tablet for a while, the screen and backlight will turn off to conserve battery power. To unlock the tablet:

  1. Turn the screen on.
    • Press the Power/Lock key on the right side of the tablet.

      OR

    • Quickly double-tap the center of the screen (KnockON).
  2. The default Lock screen will appear. From the center of the screen, swipe in any direction to unlock it.
    • To use a Swipe Lock screen shortcut, swipe the shortcut icon at the bottom of the screen in any direction. The screen will unlock and launch the app.
NOTE

The default Lock screen simply locks the screen to prevent unintentional actions. For more security to guard against unauthorized use, you can set an unlock requirement (such as a pattern, PIN, password, or face recognition) that will need to be entered to unlock it. Please refer Using a Screen Lock for more information.
