To change backlight settings:

1.Tap Start Settings Control Panel.

2.Tap OEMs Utility.

3.Select Display Manager, and tap the arrow next to Dark or drag the slider to the left to reduce the screen brightness.

5.3Performing a System Reset

You may need to perform a reset if the device freezes (i.e., device no longer responds to the buttons on the screen). A reset allows your device to get a fresh start, similar to rebooting a computer. This will restart your device and adjust memory allocation. All records and entries are retained after a reset. Unsaved data in open programs may in some cases be lost.

Performing a Software reset (re-boot)

1.Remove the stylus from its holder.

2.Lightly press the tip of the stylus to the reset button located on the PWS-8033M.
