You can go into the iBooks store and download the latest iPad user guide for iOS 10.

Can't find the iBooks "store". Looked at updates -- it says my updates,10.0.2
Is updated . So why doesn't it show in iBooks,where all the other versions
Went automatically?

If you follow my screenshots after opening the iBooks app you'll be able to download the latest iPad User Guide for iOS 10. Tapping the Featured icon is what opens the iBooks store.

Hi Doris - first tell us if your iBooks App's icon looks like the one below in the first image? In the second 'screen capture' pic, I've open iBooks - the iPad iOS 10.x guide is downloaded (arrow) - the 'Featured' selection at the bottom (as discussed by Scifan..) is evident - are you seeing this iBooks screen? Dave

Note - this second screen can be changed by the controls to the right and left of my text entry @ the top, i.e. to the left will show a 'list format' and to the right, different groups of items (I'm on 'Books' now) can be selected.

Great! Well, Scifan..'s directions should work, but I'll add several more screen captures - the first one below appears after I tap 'Featured' at the bottom, and then the 'Search' box at the top right - the list opens w/ the iOS 10 Guide at the top (red arrows) - note that 'Books' are selected (blue arrow).

After I tap on the appropriate guide, the second pic below appears - you can then 'Get', i.e. download the guide - mine is already on the iPad, so 'Read' is the choice shown - let us know. Dave

Well I could not get the screen to move left or right, no controls anywhere.But
Going to many places and pushing buttons randomly all of a sudden there was iOS 10 ! Haven't a clue what I did,couldn't do it again.
Thanks both of you, Scifan and Dave. Really appreciate it. Doris

Hi Doris - well, congrats on obtaining the guide! If you still had not succeeded, I was then going to suggest that you Force Close the iBooks app, if not already done? You might want to do the maneuver anyway (does no harm and may normalize the behavior of iBooks); if interested, just click on the link. Dave

You have to pay close attention when searching for the iPad User Guide in the iBooks Store. If you don't specified iOS 10 in the search, the results will show the older versions as well. Apple updates the books for the point udates (iOS 10.1, 10.2, etc) but leaves the major versions in the iBook Store, probably so those that don't upgrade still have an accurate reference.
