1 Go to android.com/find and sign in to your Google Account. You must log into the account which you have been using on your tablet.
2 The lost phone gets a notification.
3 On the map, you'll get info about where the phone is.
4 Pick what you want to do. If needed, first click Enable lock & erase.
In this case, you will need to pick erase to delete all info.

Oleksandr Kamennyi Tech Expert & Writer
It will ring your phone at full volume for 5 minutes, even if it's set to silent or vibrate.
After that, it will stop.
If you want to erase the tablet, press on erase button there.

Erase device: Permanently deletes all data on your phone (but might not delete SD cards). After you erase, Find My Device won't work on the phone.
