Operating Instructions
Using the Stand Function:
The Targus 3D Protective Case offers multiple viewing angles for your iPad Mini. The soft textured interior provides a non-slip base to hold your device securely in various positions.
- Viewing Mode: Fold the front cover back and position the iPad's edge into one of the grooves or against the textured interior of the cover to achieve your desired viewing angle. This is ideal for watching videos or making video calls.
- Typing Mode: For a more comfortable typing experience, fold the cover to create a lower, angled stand. This elevates the iPad slightly for ergonomic typing.
