Apple ID setup takes long

I have bought a new iPad and the apple ID setup is taking long. This is my first apple device. It's been 5 hours the apple iD is setting up. What to do?

Try completely shutting down the device for a few minutes. Then restart and skip setting up the Apple ID. Finish setting up the device and then set up the Apple ID.
