Protecting Your Tablet

You can protect your tablet against unauthorized access by setting a pattern, a PIN, a password,
or with a face unlock. After you configure any of these security options, your tablet prompts for
the respective unlocking information before you can use the tablet.

Screen-unlock pattern

This security method requires you to create a pattern that you need to draw every time to
unlock the tablet. If incorrect unlock patterns are drawn for five consecutive times, the tablet
forces a 30-second delay before you can try again.

Creating a screen unlock pattern

1. Tap

→ Settings→ Security→ Screen lock→ Pattern.

2. Drag your finger to draw the unlock pattern by connecting at least four dots in a vertical,

horizontal and/or diagonal direction. Take your finger off the screen when a pattern is
drawn.
The tablet records the pattern if it is correctly drawn.

3. Tap Continue.

4. Draw the pattern again and then tap Confirm.
