A Word About Wireless
To get the most from your Kindle, you will want to use the Amazon
Whispernet wireless service. When you connect to Amazon through the
wireless connection, you can shop for, purchase, and download a variety
of reading materials. You can also access other Kindle services available
on Amazon.
Simple Explanation of Wireless Technology
The Kindle electronic reader uses the same EVDO wireless technology
that advanced cell phones use. When you have your Kindle turned on,
and wireless switched to the ON position, your device is a radio trans-
mitter and receiver just like a cell phone.
The quality of your connection depends on your distance from the
cellular tower and the signal strength in your area. Your Kindle informs
you of the current signal strength by displaying a number of bars next to
the signal strength icon located at the bottom of the screen. The more
bars displayed, the stronger the signal.
Wireless Safety
In general, turn Amazon Whispernet off in areas where wireless use is
forbidden or when it may cause interference or danger. Some specific
situations are described below. In general, you should not use your Kindle
with Whispernet turned on any place you are not allowed to use your
cell phone.
17
11_14_R_ManualMECH_v8.qxd:Layout 1 11/14/07 5:05 PM Page 22
Turn Off Wireless When Flying
Turn off your wireless service before boarding any aircraft. To prevent
possible interference with aircraft systems, the U.S. Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) regulations require you to have permission from
a crew member to use your device’s wireless service while the plane
is on the ground.
If you have your wireless service turned off, you can use your Kindle for
reading once a crew member has said it is okay to use electronic devices.
Be Careful Around Other Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency
(RF) signals. However, RF signals may affect improperly installed or
inadequately shielded electronic operating systems or entertainment
systems. If in doubt, check with the manufacturer. Consult the
manufacturer of any personal medical devices (such as pacemakers
and hearing aids) to determine if they are adequately shielded from
external RF signals.
Watch for Signs
There are some places where radio signals could constitute a hazard.
For example, health care facilities, construction sites, and so forth.
If you are not sure, look around for signs indicating that two-way radios
or cell phones should be turned off.

Maintaining Your Kindle
Caring for Your Kindle
Avoid exposing your Kindle electronic reader and its accessories to
rain or liquid spills. If your device does get wet, immediately turn the
power off and remove the battery. Wait for it to dry completely before
inserting the battery again. If your device needs service, consult only
Amazon-authorized-personnel by contacting us through Customer
Support listed at the end of the Tips and Troubleshooting section. Faulty
service may void the warranty.
Clean the screen with a soft cloth; be careful not to wipe it with
anything abrasive. When carrying your Kindle in a bag or briefcase, keep
the book cover on to avoid scratches.
Don’t expose your Kindle to extreme heat or cold. For example, don’t
leave it in the trunk of your car in sub-zero or high-heat conditions.

Tips for Conserving Your Battery
The Kindle battery will have a much longer life if you charge it
frequently, rather than waiting until it is fully drained to charge it.
The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long period
of time, whether or not it was fully charged before it was stored.
Battery Safety
CAUTION! FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS COULD
RESULT IN FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR OTHER INJURY OR DAMAGE.
Do not attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.
Do not handle a damaged or leaking battery.
Do not incinerate the battery.
Charge the battery only in temperatures that range from 32°F to 95°F
(0°C to 35°C).
Recycling Kindle and the Battery Properly
In some areas, the disposal of rechargeable batteries and certain
electronic devices is regulated. Make sure you dispose of or recycle
Kindle
and the battery in accordance with your local laws and regulations.
For information about recycling Kindle and the battery, go to:

Items” from the menu.
25
11_14_R_ManualMECH_v8.qxd:Layout 1 11/14/07 5:05 PM Page 30
The USB Connection
Q: When I connect Kindle to my computer with the USB cable,
my computer does not recognize Kindle.
A: First, make sure your Kindle is in the ON position and awake. Then
verify that your USB cable is inserted correctly in your Kindle and in
your computer USB port. Finally, reset your Kindle, and wait until it
finishes starting up before reinserting your USB cable. (See “Resetting
Your Kindle” earlier in this section.)
Q: I transferred some content from my computer to my Kindle, and now
I can’t find it on my Kindle.
A: Make sure the file format of the transferred item is supported by
Kindle. Formats natively supported are: .AZW, .PRC, .MOBI, .MP3,
.AA and .TXT.
Also, make sure that you placed the file in the appropriate folder.
All of your reading content should go into the “documents” folder,
.MP3 files should go into the “music” folder, and Audible.com files
(.AA) should go in the “audible” folder.
No Sound
Q: Why don’t I hear any sound coming from my Kindle?
A: Try increasing the volume by pressing the “+” button at the bottom
of your Kindle (pictured in “Bottom View of Kindle” earlier in this
manual). If you are using headphones, make sure that they are
plugged in all the way. Remember that the speaker is disabled when
headphones are connected.

Notices and Certifications
Government Standards for Radio Frequency Signals
In 1991-92, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the American
National Standards Institute (ANSI) joined in updating ANSI’s 1982 standard for safety levels
with respect to human exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) signals. More than 120 scientists,
engineers and physicians from universities, government health agencies, and industries
developed this standard.
In 1993, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted this updated standard. In
August 1996, the FCC adopted a hybrid standard consisting of the existing ANSI/IEEE
standard and the guidelines published by the National Council of Radiation Protection and
Measurements (NCRP). The Kindle design complies with updated NCRP standards.
FCC Notice
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must
accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is
no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which
can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to
correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: Reorient or relocate the
receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Connect the
equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. Changes or
modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the
user‘s authority to operate the equipment.
This device meets the FCC Radio Frequency Emission Guidelines and is certified with the FCC
as FCC ID number: UUU-L7E20070323
28
11_14_R_ManualMECH_v8.qxd:Layout 1 11/14/07 5:05 PM Page 33
Radio Frequency Exposure Information (SAR)
This device meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves. This device is
designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency
(RF) energy set by the U.S. Federal Communications Commission.
The exposure standard for wireless devices employs a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. Tests for SAR are
conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the device transmitt-
ing at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is
determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the device while oper-
ating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the device is designed to operate
at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general,
the closer you are to a wireless base-station antenna, the lower the power output. The highest
measured SAR value for the device as reported to the FCC when held at least 0.60 inches
(1.5 cm) from the body is 0.96 W/kg.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device with all reported SAR
levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on
this device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/ after searching on FCC ID: UUU-L7E20070323.
This device meets RF exposure guidelines when used either with the book cover accessory
that comes with the device used in its recommended configuration (see page 12) or when
positioned at least 0.60 of an inch (1.5 cm) away from the body. Use of other accessories
may impair compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines. If you do not use the included book
cover, position the device a minimum of 0.60 of an inch (1.5 cm) from your body when the
