Securing your tablet Getting Started Navigation and features 43 If you choose to set a password (with or without encryption), Toshiba strongly recommends that you write down your password and keep it in a safe location where you can later access it should you not remember it. Toshiba is not responsible for any losses that may occur, as a result of the inability to access your device. When you initially turn on or wake the tablet, the lock screen requires you to drag the Lock ( ) icon to unlock the screen, see "Waking the tablet" on page 33. Alternatively, you can secure the lock screen by requiring a pattern or entry of a numeric PIN or password, so only you can access your data. You may also be required to secure the lock screen by a policy set by an email account or other account you add to your tablet. For more information, see "Location and security settings" on page 63. You can also encrypt the data on your tablet, so you must enter a numeric PIN or a password to decrypt it each time you power it on. 1 Touch the Time ( ) display in the System bar, touch the time in the Status Details panel, and then touch the Settings ( ) icon at the bottom of the Quick Settings screen. You can also open Settings by touching the Settings ( ) icon in the Apps screen or on a Home screen. 2 Touch the Location & security ( ) icon. 3 Touch Configure lock screen. 4 Touch Pattern, PIN, or Password. If you touch Pattern, you're guided to create a pattern you must draw to unlock the screen. The first time you do this, a short tutorial about creating an unlock pattern appears. Then you are prompted to draw and redraw your own pattern. If you touch PIN or Password, you are prompted to set a numeric PIN or a password you must enter to unlock your screen. The next time you turn on your tablet or wake up the screen, you must draw your unlock pattern or enter your PIN or password to unlock it. You can encrypt all the data on your tablet: Google™ Accounts, application data, music and other media, downloaded information, etc. If you do, you must enter a numeric PIN or password each time you power on your tablet.
