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 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.
