Troubleshooting
| Security Problems Possible causes Possible solutions | ||
| The SIM card's PIN code is blocked. | You have entered an incorrect PIN code three consecutive times. | Contact your service provider to get the PUK code. |
| System problems | ||
| Battery does not charge. | The battery or battery charger is damaged. | Contact the sales corporation. |
| The ambient temperature is below 0°C or higher than 40°C. | Adjust the battery charging environment to avoid extreme temperatures. | |
| Poor contact between the battery and charger. | Check all connectors to ensure that all connections have been properly made. | |
| Unable to turn the tablet on. | The battery has no charge. | Charge the tablet. |
| Shortened standby time. | The duration of standby time is affected by your service provider's system configuration. The same tablet used with different service providers' systems does not have the same duration of standby time (LTE/HSPA+ only). | If you are located in an area where the network signal is weak, move your location to the area where the network signal is strong or temporarily turn off your tablet if needed. |
| If you are not able to connect to the network, the tablet continues to send out signals as it attempts to locate a base station. Doing this consumes battery charge and consequently shortens standby time. | Change your location to one where the network is accessible, or temporary turn off your tablet or set it to airplane mode. | |
| Messaging problem | ||
| Unable to send or receive text messages. | Your tablet is in airplane mode with no wireless connectivity. | Slide the status panel down and then disable AIRPLANE MODE. |
| The network signal strength is not strong enough. | Try moving to a different location for better signal reception. | |
| Unable to send or receive email. | The Internet connection or the email setting is not configured properly. | Check your network connection, and confirm with your email service provider if your email setting has been configured correctly. |
| Internet problems | ||
| Unable to connect to the mobile broadband networks. | Invalid SIM card. Contact your service provider. | |
| You are not within the network's service area. | Check the service area with your service provider. | |
