First things first

We would like to thank you for making an Acer computer your choice for

meeting your mobile computing needs.

Your guides

To help you use your Acer computer, we have designed a set of guides:

First off, the setup poster helps you get started with setting up your computer.

The ICONIA TAB Generic User Guide contains useful information applying to all

models in the ICONIA TAB product series. It covers basic topics such as using the

keyboard and audio, etc. Please understand that due to its nature, the Generic

User Guide will occasionally refer to functions or features which are only

contained in certain models of the series, but not necessarily in the model you

purchased. Such instances are marked in the text with language such as "only

for certain models".

The Quick Guide introduces you to the basic features and functions of your new

computer. For more on how your computer can help you to be more productive,

please refer to the ICONIA TAB Generic User Guide. This guide contains detailed

information on such subjects as system utilities, data recovery, expansion

options and troubleshooting. In addition it contains warranty information and

the general regulations and safety notices for your computer. It is available in

Portable Document Format (PDF) and comes preloaded on your computer.

Follow these steps to access it:

1 Click on Start > All Programs > Documentation.

2 Click on ICONIA TAB Generic User Guide.

Note: Viewing the file requires Adobe Reader. If Adobe Reader is not

installed on your computer, clicking on ICONIA TAB Generic User Guide will

run the Adobe Reader setup program first. Follow the instructions on the

screen to complete the installation. For instructions on how to use Adobe

Reader, access the Help and Support menu.
