Tablet Does Not Turn On - LinQTab LQ8 User Manual

Tablet does not turn on

If the screen is black and does not respond when you push the power button, follow these
steps:
1. Verify that you are using the correct charger for the tablet
Using a charger from another source, such as a cell phone charger, may cause the tablet
to charge slowly, or it may not charge at all. Charge the tablet using the AC adapter that
came with your tablet.
2. Verify the tablet is receiving power from the AC adapter
Verify that the AC adapter is not damaged, and that it is connected correctly to a
working wall outlet plug. Examine the AC adapter, wiring, and mini-USB connection for
damage.
3. Try a different power outlet
Plug the adapter into a different power outlet and try to turn on the tablet.
4. Use a different AC power adapter
If you have access to a different AC adapter that is designed for the tablet, connect it
and try to start the tablet.
5. Perform a hard restart
If none of the steps above resolve the issue, or if the issue has not been addressed in
this document, try a hard restart again. A hard reboot can resolve many tablet startup
issues.
To perform the hard reset: Press and hold the power button for more than eight
seconds to hard reboot the tablet.
If, after performing the hard restart, the tablet still does not start, proceed to contact
Customer Service.
