Getting Started
Using the controls
You need to learn only a few simple controls to navigate around your Device to download
and read books, magazines, and newspapers.
Power button: To turn your Device on, press the power button. To put your Device in sleep
mode, press and release the power button; the screensaver appears on the display. To wake
up your Device, press the power button. To turn off your Device, press and hold the power
button for seven seconds until the screen goes blank. If your Device does not power on or

computer for charging the battery and transferring files, including personal documents, to
your Device.
Device User’s Guide
Charging the battery
Charge your Device by plugging the supplied USB cable into a power source, such as a
computer or an AC adaptor (sold separately). A lightning bolt should appear on the battery
icon at the top of the Home screen.
The indicator light on the bottom edge of the device will turn amber while charging and green
when the battery is fully charged.
Charging should take less than three hours. You can use your Device while it is connected via
USB and charging from your computer, by un-mounting or ejecting it so that Device exits
USB drive mode.
• Window s Vista and 7: Click the Start button, select “Computer” from the options, right-click
on the Device drive icon, and select “Eject” from the pop-up menu.
• Window s XP: Right-click on the “Safely remove hardware” icon in the lower right-hand
corner of the task bar and follow the on-screen instructions to remove Device.
• Mac OS: Ctrl-click on the Device device icon and choose “Eject.”
Your Device will then exit USB drive mode and display the Home screen. You’ll see a lightning
bolt on the battery status icon that indicates your Device is still charging. If the charge
indicator light does not come on, make sure that the USB cable is fully inserted into your
Device and into the USB port.
Status indicators
At the top of every screen, you’ll see indicators that inform you about the status of various
device services.
Wi-Fi a n d W AN status indicators
Your Device has a strong W i-Fi signal and the Data network service is active. The more bars
that are filled in with black, the stronger the W i-Fi signal.
Your Device is checking for available W i-Fi network, or W AN network
Battery status indicators
The Device battery indicator shows the various states of the battery as it discharges.
Note that subscribing to multiple blogs that update frequently may increase power
consumption and decrease the battery life. A weak W i-Fi signal can also increase power
consumption.
Device User’s Guide
Activity Indicator
This indicator appears in the top left corner of your Device screen when the device is busy
downloading new content, checking for new items, searching for an item.
Setting up your Device
If you’re reading this guide, you’ve probably completed the Device setup process, which
includes connecting to a W i-Fi network and registering your Device to an account. If you
haven’t done these steps yet, go to the Home screen now, select Set Up Your Device,
follow the onscreen prompts. Once you have completed the setup process, Set Up Your

About registration: If you bought your Device online using your account, or you’ve already
gone through the Device setup process, the device is registered and ready to use. To verify
this, press the Home button and check whether your user name is in the upper left corner
of the Home screen. If it says “My Device” your device is not registered.
