About the Orientation Sensor

The tablet contains a sensor that will automatically change the orientation of most screens as you rotate the tablet. The sensor works best when the tablet is rotated perpendicular to the ground (i.e., when the tablet is held upright and not fat on its back).

The orientation sensor can be turned on and off in the Display settings menu.
