numbers and special characters such as %, # and *. In 'Settings' , select 'Security' , then
'screen lock' , then select PIN or Password.
Encryption
In order to protect your personal data on this tablet, in the event of the device
being stolen, you can encrypt your tablet. Go to settings - Security - Encrypt

must return the tablet to factory settings which will erase all of your files and downloaded
apps (securely). To reset to factory defaults go to 'Settings' , select 'Backup and Reset' then
'Factory data reset' .
