Getting Started
Power On & Sign In
To turn on your Prestige, press the Power button on the
right edge near the top for a few seconds, then release it.
Charge the battery
The battery may not be fully charged at first. It’s a good
idea to fully charge it as soon as you can.
The tablet can be charged 2 ways. With the power
adapter, connect the power adapter to the tablet and to a
power outlet. With a USB, connect the included USB
cable to the tablet and to a computer that is powered on.
(Note: charging via USB is slower than via power adapter.)
Set up your tablet
The first time you turn on the tablet, you'll see a Welcome
screen.

When you sign in with a Google Account, all the e-mail,
contacts, calendar events and any other data associated
with that account are automatically synced with your
tablet.

You’re in control
When you decide to use Google Now, you’re turning on
location reporting and location history. Google Now also
uses location information provided by Google’s location
service and GPS, if those are currently turned on.
Google Now also uses data that you may have stored in
other Google products. For example, if you have searches
stored in your Web History, Google Now can show cards
based on sports scores, flight status, and so on.
Similarly, Google Now can use data that you may have
stored in third-party products that you allow Google to
access. For example, your tablet’s synced calendar may
include entries from non-Google calendar products. If you
have a synced calendar entry for a dentist appointment
that includes the dentist’s address, Google Now can check
traffic and suggest when to leave.
You’re in control. You can choose exactly which cards
you’d like to see, adjust the details of what they display,
and adjust your privacy settings.

Connect to 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 certificates or
other ways to ensure that only authorized users can
connect.
To extend the life of your battery between charges, turn
off Wi-Fi when you’re not using it. You can also set your
device to disconnect automatically from Wi-Fi networks
when it’s sleeping.
To work with Wi-Fi settings, go to

Secure Your Tablet
Set Screen Lock
Depending how you use your tablet, you may want to set
some form of automatic screen lock to prevent
unauthorized access. If a screen lock has been set, the
screen locks when your tablet’s display goes to sleep.
If your tablet’s playing music when the screen locks, you
can continue listening or pause the selection without
unlocking.
To adjust your lock settings:
1. Go to
Settings > Personal > Security > Screen lock.
2. Touch the type of lock you want and follow the onscreen
instructions. If you have previously set a lock, you must
enter the pattern, PIN, or password to unlock the lock
settings.
You can choose among these lock options, listed in
approximate order of strength:

P a g e | 46
PRESTIGE Android Tablet Guide Book
Slide provides no protection, but lets you get to the Home
screen quickly, or open Camera and start taking pictures
immediately.
Pattern lets you draw a simple pattern with your finger to
unlock. This is more secure than Slide unlock.
PIN requires four or more numbers. Longer PINs tend to be
more secure.
Password requires four or more letters or numbers. This is
the most secure option, as long as you create a strong
password.
Password tips: For best security, specify a password that is
at least 8 characters long, contains a mixture of numbers,
letters, and special symbols and doesn’t contain any
recognizable words or phrases.
To change when it goes to sleep, go to Settings
> Device > Display > Sleep.
To see your passwords when you input them, go to

information, and so on. if you do, you must enter a
numeric PIN or password each time you turn on your
tablet. Note that this is the same PIN or password that you
use to unlock your tablet without encryption, and cannot
be set independently.
Warning: encryption is irreversible. The only way to revert
to an unencrypted tablet is to perform a factory data reset,
which erases all your data.
Encryption provides additional protection in case your
tablet is stolen, and may be required or recommended in
some organizations. Consult your system administrator
before turning it on. in many cases the PIN or password
you set for encryption is controlled by the system
administrator.
Before turning on encryption, prepare as follows:
Set a lock screen PIN or password.
Charge the battery.
Plug in your tablet.
Schedule an hour or more for the encryption process: you
must not interrupt it or you will lose some or all of your
data.

Work with Certificates
You can use digital certificates to identify your device for a
variety of purposes, including VPN or Wi-Fi network access
as well as authentication to servers by apps such as email
or browser. To use a certificate to identify your device, you
must obtain it with help from your system administrator,
and install it in your device’s trusted credential storage .
Android supports DER-encoded X.509 certificates, saved in
files with a .crt or .cer file extension. If your certificate file
has a .der or other extension, you must change it to .crt or
.cer or you won’t be able to install it.
Android also supports X.509 certificates saved in PKCS#12
key store files with a .p12 or .pfx extension. If your key
store has some other extension, you much change it to
.p12 or .pfx or you won’t be able to install it. When you
install a certificate from a PKCS#12 key store, Android also
installs any accompanying private key or certificate
authority certificates.
Install Client & CA Certificates

Typically, a CA certificate included with a client certificate
is installed at the same time. You can also install separate
CA certificates using the same steps.
if you have not already set a pattern, PIN, or password for
your device, you’re prompted to set one up. The type of
lock that’s acceptable may be predetermined by your
system administrator.
You can now use the certificate that you installed when
connecting to a secure network or for client authentication
with email, Browser, and third-party apps. After a
certificate is installed successfully, the copy in storage is
deleted.

Warning: Apps such as email and browser that support
certificates allow you to install certificates directly from
within the app. For details, see the Help or other instructions that come with each app.
Work with CA Certificates
If a certificate authority (CA) certificate gets compromised,
or for some other reason your organization doesn’t want
to trust it, you can disable or remove it. To do so, follow
these steps:
1. Touch

fingertips.
To know when to display what information, Google Now
uses contextual data from your tablet and from other
©2013 Visual Land Inc.
P a g e | 61
PRESTIGE Android Tablet Guide Book
Google products, plus data from third-party products that
you allow Google Now to access.
For example, Google Now uses the time of day, your
current location, and your location history to show you
what the traffic on your commute is like when you wake
up in the morning. It also uses information from Google
services such as your Web History for sports or flight
updates, or from your synced calendar entries for
appointment reminders.
About Google Now cards
A Google Now card is a short snippet of useful information
that slides into view right when you’re most likely to need
it. For example, here’s a traffic card:

PRESTIGE Android Tablet Guide Book
In addition to the cards shown in the list of samples, you
may also see a Public Alerts card.
Public Alerts provide emergency information from sources
such as the National Weather Service and the U.S.
Geological Survey. Coverage is currently provided by a
limited number of key partners, only in the United States
(excepting U.S. Geological Survey earthquake alerts).
Google can’t guarantee that you’ll see every relevant alert.
However, Google Now attempts to show you what’s
important when you need it, in the hope that such alerts
are a useful additional source of information. To learn
more, visit support.google.com/publicalerts.
About location access, reporting, & history
Location access settings determine whether your tablet
can use your current location. When location access is
turned on, apps can use it to give you more relevant
information, such as nearby restaurants or commute
traffic.
To turn off location access for all apps, go to Settings >
Personal > Location access. If you prefer, you can turn off
location access by Google apps while still permitting its use
by non-Google apps – just go to Settings > Accounts >

PRESTIGE Android Tablet Guide Book
Location reporting refers your tablet’s ability to report
your current location for the purpose of recording your
location history.
Location history refers to your tablet’s ability to store your
past locations, including home and work.
When you decide to use Google Now, you’ll start reporting
your location and turn on your location history. Google
won’t share this information with other users or marketers
without your permission.
If you opted in to location history in the past, Google Now
uses your previously recorded locations as well as ongoing
locations when making suggestions. Turning off location
history pauses the collection of location information, but
doesn’t delete your history. To manage or delete your
location details, visit google.com/locationhistory.
Along with location history, Google Now uses your tablet’s
location access service, which must also be turned on for
Google Now to work. To manage this setting, go to
Settings > Personal > Location access.

history.”

About Web History & other data
Google Now uses data from multiple sources to help
predict what you need. For example, if you have a synced
calendar entry for a dentist appointment, Google Now can
check traffic and suggest when to leave. And if you have
relevant searches saved in your Web History, such as for
your favorite sports team or for upcoming flights, Google
Now can also show cards for sports scores, flight status,
and more.
To manage your Web History, visit google.com/history.
You can delete or pause your Web History and still use
Google Now, but certain kinds of information, such as
flight details, won’t show up.

Control location access, reporting, & history
This section describes how to set your home and work
addresses and manage other location-related features
used by Google Now.
Define home & work

home or work address to get commute traffic information,
travel help, and more. You can change these addresses in
several other ways:
• When a Traffic card appears for home or work,
touch the Info icon.
• On the main Google Now screen, go to Menu >
Settings > My stuff > Places, then edit Home or
Work.
• Visit maps.google.com from a browser and open
My Places.

Go to Settings > Google > Maps & Latitude. This

Google Maps.
To turn off location reporting, touch Location
reporting > Do not update your location.
To turn off location history, uncheck Enable
location history.
You can turn off and delete your location history and still
use Google Now, but certain kinds of information, such as
commute traffic, may be limited or won’t show up at all.
Delete location history details
Even if you turn off both location reporting and location
history, your previously recorded history is still available to
Google services such as Google Now.
To delete location history details, follow these steps from a
desktop computer:
1. Open a web browser and make sure you’re signed
in with the account whose location history you
want to manage.
2. Visit google.com/locationhistory. A page appears
that allows you to view your location history for
any date.
3. To delete all your recorded location history, click
Delete all history. Alternatively, from this screen

you can delete a portion of your location history
starting from a date you choose in the calendar.
Click OK.
Turn off location access for your tablet
Even when location reporting and location history are
turned off, Google can periodically report data for use by
various apps from sources such as Wi-Fi, mobile networks,
and GPS to determine your precise location at any given
time.
To turn off access to precise location information for your
tablet, go to Settings > Personal > Location access and
slide the switch to Off.
To keep location access on, you must keep GPS satellites,
Wi-Fi & mobile network location, or both settings checked.
If you prefer, you can turn off location access by Google
apps while still permitting its use by non-Google apps – just
go to Settings > Accounts > Google > Location settings.
For more information about location access settings, see
Manage location access.
Use your voice on Android
You can speak into your Android tablet to search, get
directions, send messages, and perform other common

tasks. To initiate an action or a search using your voice,
touch the Microphone icon on the Home screen or in the
Google Search app.
If your device is running Android 4.1 or later, you don’t
have to touch the microphone — just open the Google
Search app and say “Google.”
Turn hotword detection on or off
The ability to trigger a search or action by saying “Google”
is called hotword detection. To turn it off or on, open the
Google Search app and touch Menu > Settings > Voice >
Hotword detection.
Voice Search
After you touch the Microphone icon or say “Google,”
Google listens as you speak and initiates the search or
action you describe. If Voice Search doesn’t understand
you, it lists a set of possible meanings. Just touch the one
you want.
If you ask your question to Google, the answer can be
spoken to you. The answer can be a fact, weather
condition, stock price, flight status, sports score, currency
conversion, mathematical calculation, and more. Some
examples include:

About Gmail Cards
Gmail cards are based on confirmation messages sent to
the Gmail account you’ve selected for use with Google
Now. For example, cards appear before restaurant
reservations you’ve made with OpenTable or when you
receive email updates for packages in transit.
Gmail cards typically include links to other useful
information, such as a link to the email on which the card
is based, or directions to a restaurant or hotel from your
current location.

PRESTIGE Android Tablet Guide Book
You can turn Gmail cards off or on from the main Google
Now screen:
All Gmail cards at once. Go to Menu > Settings > Google
Now and touch the On/Off switch for Gmail cards.
Individual Gmail cards. Go to Menu > Settings > Google
Now > Gmail and check or uncheck each card.
About the Activity summary card
The Activity summary card appears once a month. It
provides a very rough approximation of how far you’ve
walked or cycled during that month compared to the
previous one. These estimates are based on occasional
samples of the accelerometer in your tablet, which are
then compared to typical movements involved in walking
or cycling.
This information isn’t available unless you’ve turned on
location reporting and history for at least one of your
Android devices. If you’ve turned these on for more than
one device, the Activity summary card reflects the one you
used most often that month.
About the Stocks card
The Stocks card displays stocks that:
• You’ve searched on recently.

PRESTIGE Android Tablet Guide Book
You’re tracking through Google Finance.
You’ve explicitly listed in the Stocks card settings.
You can choose whether to display stocks when their price
changes by 1% or more, or in the mornings or evenings.
To change the stocks displayed by the stocks card, do one
of the following:
• When the Stocks card is displayed, touch the
Info icon to modify your existing stock list or add
new stocks.
• Go to Menu > Settings > My Stuff > Stocks. Then
touch the stock you want to remove, or Add stock
to add a new one.
About the Research topics card
The Research topics card appears when your recent Web
History includes several searches related to a single topic –
such as a trip you’re planning – and Google detects
relevant webpages that you may not have found yet. For
this card to appear, you must have Web History turned on
for the account you use with Google Now.
To explore more links that may be relevant to the topic,
touch Explore at the bottom of the card. From the list of
links, touch the History tab to view a summary of your
recent Web History related to this topic.
