Your device has a built-in battery. Before using the device for the first time, you must charge the battery for at least 6-8 hours. Use only Datawind approved chargers.

When your battery is low, the battery level indicator will be very thin. If the battery level reaches a critical level, the device will automatically turn off. Recharge the battery by first inserting the cable into the charging head and then plugging the head into a standard AC power outlet. After the charging is complete, unplug the charging head.

It is best to charge the device at room temperature. It is not necessary to wait until the battery is completely drained before recharging; you may charge at any time. The battery will maintain its lifespan longer if it is not left uncharged for periods of more than 2 weeks at a time.

Press and hold the Power button for 3 seconds to power on the device. It can take up to a minute and a half to boot the system. After the system boot is completed, it will enter the Android desktop. Slide the lock icon to the right to unlock the screen to start to use the device.

You can turn off the screen to save power by quickly pressing the power button. The screen will turn to Lock Screen mode. Repeat the process to reactivate the device.

Note: The device will remain operational as will any applications when the device is in power saving mode; only the screen is turned off.

Press and hold the Power button for 3 seconds. A menu will appear confirming that you would like to power off. Choose your desired option by tapping the corresponding item on the screen or Tap Cancel to exit to the previous operation.

When the device’s battery is low, it will send continuous alerts and will shut down automatically when the battery is empty. If the device fails to power on, please plug it into an outlet to first check if the battery is empty. Please recharge the battery for at least one minute before attempting to restart the device.

The device contains a sensor that will automatically change the orientation of most screens as you rotate the device. The sensor works best when the device is held upright and not flat on its back.

The Orientation sensor can be activated or deactivated in the Setting menu: Go to Setting > Display > Auto-rotate screen. Check the box if you want to activate the sensor or uncheck the box to deactivate it.

Your device comes with a responsive touch screen which works as follows:

• Tap: To activate an on-screen item (e.g., application icons, buttons, menu items, and the letter/symbols of the on-screen keyboard), simply tap them with your fingertip or compatible stylus.

• Double Tap: Quickly tap the screen twice on a webpage or other application screen to zoom (the application must support the double-tap/zoom function). Within the browser, double-tapping a webpage section will cause the browser to zoom and fit that section to the width of the screen.

• Drag and drop: Drag an on-screen item to change its position (e.g., an application icon on the home screen). To drag an item, touch and hold it for a moment, then without lifting your fingertip/stylus, move your fingertip/stylus on the screen until the item reaches its target destination.

• Swipe: Swipe up/down on the screen to scroll through a list. On some screens, you may be able to swipe left/right to change the view. To swipe, touch the screen and then quickly move your fingertip/stylus across the screen without lifting it. Do not pause on the screen with your fingertip/stylus at the initial point of contact or you may accidentally drag an item instead.

• Tap and hold: Some on-screen items have an alternate action if you touch and hold them (e.g., opening an alternate menu, or to activate the drag function). To touch and hold an item, touch the item and do not lift your fingertip/stylus until the action occurs. Tapping and holding an icon will allow you to move it once it appears large.

Note: Do not touch the screen with a body part or any foreign object while switching on the device. To avoid damage, do not use sharp tools or allow the touch screen to come into contact with other electrical devices or water. For optimal use, remove the screen protection film before using your device.

To insert the Micro SD card: Simply push it into the device. It can only fit in one way, with the gold contacts facing up towards the side with the touch screen.

To remove the Micro SD card: You must first go into System Settings. Tap the shortcut, then tap “Storage” and scroll down on the right-hand side until you see Unmount SD card. Accept the unmount and then push down on the top of the Micro SD card, and it will pop back up to be removed.

To access files on the Micro SD card, use the “File Manager” application.

Your DATAWIND UBISLATE 7C PLUS is also a phone which works on quad-band GSM 850/900/1800/1900Mhz frequency spectrums. You can speak either through the speakerphone or headset connections. You must insert your valid GSM SIM card into the SIM card slot while the device is powered off for it to function correctly. Dialing, disconnecting, and contact lists function like your standard mobile phone.

There is a SIM card slot on the side of the device. Insert the SIM Card so that the notch enters the device first and the gold contacts are facing the front of the device. You should see the contacts if you can also see the screen. Ensure that your device is OFF when inserting or removing SIM cards.

The DATAWIND UBISLATE 7C PLUS is a capacitive touch screen device. It requires a simple connection between your finger and the screen for the touch to be registered. At times, instead of using your finger, a stylus made for capacitive touch screen devices may be used. Do not use a pointy object or one that could scratch the surface of the device.

Should you find that the software on the device does not respond to any commands, refuses to turn off or on, or any hardware component is not functioning properly, you may have to do a hardware reset. This is accomplished (after turning off the device if possible) by inserting a pin into the reset key on the underside of the device and pressing the pin until the reset pin clicks.

If the powering on process does not complete, reset the unit and try again.

If your device is not powering on, try the following things:

-Depress the power button until you feel a slight click then hold for 2-3 seconds. Do not force the button beyond the click, as you risk damaging it.

-Plug in a charger, keep it charged for at least 20 minutes and try again.

-Execute a hard reset of the unit (using a pin through the reset hole).

At a very low battery charge, the Wi-Fi module may stop working before the device shuts down. To continue using the Wi-Fi module, the device should be plugged into a charger. If the Wi-Fi has stopped responding, you may need to power cycle the unit and keep it on the charger for an hour.

If there is no sound coming from the speakers, check to see that the volume level is not set to 0. Also check whether or not the audio file that you are listening to is not damaged by trying it on another device or by trying other files on this one.

If you are having trouble copying files, check to see if your PC connection is set up properly, if the USB cable is properly attached, or whether there is enough available memory capacity on the drive in question.

If your device ever requires a hard RESET, please press and hold the ON/OFF button for at least 5 seconds. This will not delete saved information, only reset the device.
