in the EU. To prevent possible harm to the environment or human health from uncontrolled waste disposal, recycle it
responsibly to promote the sustainable reuse of material resources. To dispose of your used device, please use the return
and collection systems available in your area or contact the retailer where the product was purchased. They can take this product for safe
environmental recycling.
This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator & your body.
CE in which countries where the product may be used freely: Germany, UK, Italy, Spain, Belgium, Netherlands, Portugal, Greece, Ireland, Denmark,
Luxembourg, Austria, Finland, Sweden, Norway and Iceland. In France, except the channel 10 through 13, law prohibits the use of other channels.
The NS7016 respects the current regulations for limiting the output volume of consumer audio devices to a safe level. By listening to your
with headphones or ear
device
buds at high volumes, you run the risk of permanent damage to your ears. Even if you get used to listening at high
volumes and it seems normal to you, you still risk the possibility of damaging your hearing. Reduce the volume of your device to a reasonable
level to avoid permanent hearing damage. If you hear ringing in your ears, reduce the volume or shut off your device. This device has been tested
with the supplied earphones. In order to preserve your hearing, it is advised that you use only the following headphone models: the earphones
supplied with your device, or any other headphones that respect the current regulations. Other types of headphones may produce higher volume
levels. At full power ,the prolonged listening of the walk man can damage the ear of the user
Cautions
Maximum output voltage<=150mv
Do not use while operating a motorized vehicle. It may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.
You should use extreme caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations created by obstructed hearing.
Even if your headphones or earphones are the open-air type designed to let you hear outside sounds, don’t turn up the volume so high that you can’t
hear what’s around you.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound. What sounds “normal” can actually be loud and
harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting the volume of your device at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe volume level:
a. Start your volume control at a low setting.
b. Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion. Once you have established a comfortable sound
level, leave it there.

ClassiĮĐa on of storage MS7016
Depend of model number the device can have 4, 8 or 16 GB storage spaces: Inner storage 1, Inner storage
2, USB type external storage, TF card.
Example 4GB : The storage available for end user is divided into two parts: local par ons and user data.
When you browsing the internet, pictures etc are downloaded into local par ons 1.51GB. When you
downloading applica ons from applica ns (APKs) are saved to user data area. The size of user data you
could check with: Se ngs->SD card & device storage -> Available space. For example, available space for
user data is 0.78GB. The total available internal storage is Local Par ons + User data area =
1.51GB+0.78GB = 2.29GB, the android system and data take about the other 1.71GB = 4GB Internal
Memory.
1 Micro USB type storage and 1 Micro SD card support max up to 32GB

View or restrict data usage by app
Some apps transfer data in the background; that is, when you're not actually using the app, it may
download data for future reference. RestricƟng background data usage for individual apps can someƟmes
be a useful way to reduce your overall data usage. However, this is a drasƟc measure that may also aīect
the app's performance or cause it to malfuncƟon. Check whether data usage can be restricted from the
app's own seƫngs (available from within the app) before restricƟng it here.
1. Make sure you're viewing the network for which you want to view or restrict app data usage.
2. Scroll down to Įnd the app whose data usage you want to view.
3. To see more details for an app, touch its name.
4. To stop background data usage for this app, check Restrict background data.
5. Read the message that appears. If you're willing to proceed, click OK.
Advanced data usage seƫngs
Two other seƫngs available from the Menu icon can have dramaƟc eīects, but may someƟmes be useful:
zData roaming can result in steep addiƟonal charges. However, in some locaƟons this may be the only
way to connect to the Internet.
zRestrict background data aīects all your apps across all available networks, and may cause some
features to stop working. This is an extreme step that should be used with cauƟon.
OpƟmize memory usage
You typically don't need to worry about managing apps beyond installing, opening, and using them. But
there may be Ɵmes when you want to know more about what's happening behind the scenes.
Apps use two kinds of memory: internal storage and RAM. They use internal storage for themselves and
any Įůes, seƫngs, and other data they use. They also use RAM (memory designed for temporary storage and fast
access) when they're running.
Android manages and carefully guards the porƟon of internal storage where the system, apps, and most data for
those apps are stored, because this area may contain your private informaƟon. It's not possible to view this porƟon
of internal storage when you connect your device to a computer with a USB cable. The other porƟon of internal
storage, where music, downloaded Įůes, and so on are stored, remains visible for your convenience.
Android also manages how apps use RAM. It may cache some things you've been using recently, for quicker access if
you need them again, but it will erase the cache if it needs the RAM for new acƟviƟes. You Ăīect the way apps use
internal storage directly and indirectly in many ways; for example, by:

භ Installing or uninstalling apps.
භ Downloading Įůes in Browser, Gmail, and other apps.
භ CreaƟng Įles (for example, by taking pictures).
භ DeleƟng downloaded Įles or Įůes you created.
භCopying Įles between your device and a computer via USB.
You rarely need to manage the way apps use RAM. But you can monitor apps' RAM usage and stop them if they
misbehave.
Use the Apps screen
The Apps screen allows you to adjust several aspects of the way your device uses memory. To view these seƫngs:
1 From a Home or All Apps screen, touch the Seƫngs icon .
2 Under Device touch Apps.
You'll see three tabs at the top of the screen, each displaying a list of apps or their components:
භ Downloaded. Displays apps you've downloaded from Market or other sources.
භ Running. Displays all apps, processes, and services that are currently running or that have cached processes, and
how much RAM they are using.
The graph at the boƩom of the Running tab shows the total RAM in use and the amount free. Below the graph,
touch Show cached processes or Show running services to switch back and forth.
භ All. Displays all apps that came with Android and all apps you downloaded from Android Market or other sources.
To switch the order of the lists displayed in the Downloaded or All tabs, touch Menu icon > Sort by name or Sort
by size.
To view details about an app or other item listed under any tab, touch its name. The informaƟon and controls
available vary among dŝīerent types of apps, but commonly include:
භ Force stop buƩon: Stops an app that is misbehaving. Stopping an app, process, or service may cause your device
to stop working correctly. You may need to restart your device aŌer doing this.

Connect to Wi-Fi networks
Wi-Fi is a wireless networking technology that can
provide Internet access at distances of up to 100
meters, depending on the Wi-Fi router and your
surroundings.
To use Wi-Fi, you connect to a wireless access point, or
"hotspot." Some hotspots are open and you can simply connect to them. Others implement security features that
require other steps to set up, such as digital cerƟĮcates or other ways to ensure that only authorized users can
connect.
To extend the life of your baƩĞry between charges, turn oī Wi-Fi when you're not using it. You can also set your
device to disconnect automaƟcally from Wi-Fi networks when it's sleeping.
Turn Wi-Fi on and connect to a Wi-Fi network
If you're adding a Wi-Fi network when Įrst seƫng up your device, Wi-Fi is turned on automaƟcally.
1 Touch the Seƫngs icon on a Home or All Apps screen.
2 Touch Wireless & networks > Wi-Fi.
3 Slide the Wi-Fi switch to the On posiƟon.
24
The device scans for available Wi-Fi networks and displays the names of those it Įnds. Secured networks are
indicated with a Lock icon. If the device Įnds a network that you connected to previously, it connects to it.
4 Touch a network name to see more details or connect to it.
If the network is secured, you're prompted to enter a password or other credenƟals. (Ask your network
administrator for details.)
To modify a network's seƫngs, touch & hold the network name.
Add a Wi-Fi network
You can add a Wi-Fi network so your device will remember it, along with any security credenƟĂůs, and connect to it
automaƟcally when it's in range. You must also add a Wi-Fi network if the network does not broadcast its name
(SSID), or to add a Wi-Fi network when you are out of range.
To join a secured network, you Įrst need to learn security details from the network's administrator.
1 Turn on Wi-Fi, if it's not already on.
2 In the Wi-Fi seƩings screen, touch Add Network.
3 Enter the SSID (name) of the network. If necessary, enter security or other network conĮguraƟon details.
4 Touch Save.
The informaƟon about the network is saved. Your device will connect to this network automaƟcally the next Ɵme
you come within range.
Forget a Wi-Fi network
You can make the device forget about the details of a Wi-Fi network that you added; for example, if you don't want
the tablet to connect to it automaƟcally or if it's a network that you no longer use.
1 Turn on Wi-Fi, if it's not already on.
2 In the Wi-Fi seƫngs screen, touch the name of the network.
3 Touch Forget in the dialog that opens.
ConĮgure proxy seƫngs for a Wi-Fi network
25
Some network administrators require you to connect to internal or external network resources via a proxy server. By
default, the Wi-Fi networks you add are not conĮgured to connect via a proxy, but you can change that for each Wi-
Fi network you've added.
Proxy seƫngs are used by Browser but may not be used by other apps.
1 Touch & hold a network in the list of Wi-Fi networks you've added.
2 Touch Modify network in the dialog that opens.
3 Select Show advanced opƟons.
4 If the network has no proxy seƫngs, touch None under Proxy Seƫngs, then touch Manual in the menu that
opens.
5 Enter the proxy seƫngs supplied by your network administrator.
6 Touch Save.
The proxy seƫngs apply only to the Wi-Fi network you modŝĮed. To change the proxy seƫngs for other Wi-Fi
networks, modify them individually.
Set Wi-Fi noƟĮcaƟons, disconnect policy, and other advanced opƟons
To work with advanced Wi-Fi seƫngs:
1 Turn on Wi-Fi, if it's not already on.
2 In the Wi-Fi seƫngs screen, touch the Menu icon and choose Advanced.
These are the seƫngs you can adjust:
භ Network noƟĮcaƟon: By default, when Wi-Fi is on, you receive noƟĮcaƟons in the Status bar when your device
detects an open Wi-Fi network. Uncheck this opƟon to turn oī noƟĮcaƟons
භ Avoid poor connecƟons: Check to automaƟcally avoid using networks with a low-quality or intermiƩĞnt Internet
connecƟon.
භ Keep Wi-Fi during sleep: To conserve mobile data usage, your device stays connected to Wi-Fi when the screen
goes to sleep.
Touch this opƟon to change this default behavior: either to stay connected to Wi-Fi only when the device is
connected to a charger (when baƩĞry life isn't a problem), or never to stay connected to
26
Wi-Fi during sleep. The laƩer choice is likely to increase mobile data usage. You may want to revisit this seƫng if you
receive a noƟĮcaƟon that you're approaching your specŝĮed mobile data limit.
භ Wi-Fi frequency band: 2.4 GHz Band
This screen also displays the following informaƟon:
භ MAC address: The Media Access Control (MAC) address of your device when connected to a Wi-Fi network.
භ IP address: The Internet Protocol (IP) address assigned to the device by the Wi-Fi network you are connected to
(unless you used the IP seƫngs to assign it a staƟc IP address).

ConĮgure account sync opƟons
29
You can conĮgure synchronizaƟon opƟons for any of your apps. You can also conĮgure what kinds of data you
synchronize for each account. Some apps, such as Gmail and Calendar, have separate synchronizaƟon seƫngs that
provide more Įne-grained control. In such cases, the seƫngs you select at the account level are sƟůů valid.
For some accounts, syncing is two-direcƟonal; changes that you make to the information on your device are made to
the copy of that informaƟon on the web. Your Google Account works this way. Other accounts support only one-way
sync: the informaƟon on your mobile device is read-only.
To view the Accounts & sync seƫngs screen described here:
1 From a Home or All Apps screen, touch the Seƫngs icon .
2 Under Personal, touch Accounts & sync.
Some apps also have their own seƫngs related to syncing. For example, to control message syncing in the Gmail

device or on the web are automaƟcally synced with each other.
If you turn oī Auto-sync, you need to sync manually to collect messages, email, and other recent informaƟon, and
won't receive noƟĮcaƟons when updates occur.
For example, when this opƟon is checked, changes that you make in your People app are automaƟcally made to
your Google contacts on the web.
If this opƟon is not checked, you may be able to use an applicaƟon's tools to sync data manually. You can also sync
manually to collect messages, email, and other recent informaƟon. Leaving Auto-sync oī can help extend your
