Patent Notices

Thank you for purchasing Amazon Kindle. You are reading the Welcome section of the Kindle User's Guide that provides an

overview of Kindle.

Your Kindle must be registered to an Amazon account in order to shop in the Kindle Store. If you bought your Kindle using

your Amazon account, it is already registered. Otherwise, please look at the Quick Start Guide instructions that came with your

Kindle for information on registering your device.

You can leave this guide at any time by pressing the Home button on your Kindle. To turn to the next page, press the Next Page

button (labeled with >) on either side of your device.

Congratulations!

You are reading on your new Kindle.

If you haven't done so already, please follow the Getting Started instructions that came with your Kindle and plug your Kindle

into a power source to charge the battery. The charge indicator light on the bottom edge of your Kindle turns yellow and a

lightning bolt appears on the battery icon at the top of the display. Charging the battery fully should take less than three hours

and you can continue reading while it charges.

Tip: The charge indicator light will turn green when the battery is fully charged.

If you prefer to read the Kindle User's Guide side-by-side with the device, you can download and print a PDF copy at:

http://www.amazon.com/kindledocuments (U.S. and other countries)

http://www.amazon.co.uk/kindledocuments (U.K. customers)

You can also download the .AZW version of the Kindle User's Guide and read it on any supported device (for example, Kindle

for iPhone or Kindle for PC). For a complete list of supported devices, visit the Kindle Store on the Amazon website.

Getting Around

You navigate Kindle using the 5-way controller; the Home, Menu, Back, and Next/Previous Page buttons; and the keyboard:

1 of 99

To select a particular item such as a menu option or a speciﬁc word in your reading material, press the up, down, left, or right

button on the 5-way controller to highlight your choice and then press the center of the 5-way controller to conﬁrm your choice.

You can press the Next Page or Previous Page button to move forward or backward in your reading material and press the Back

button to retrace your steps on your Kindle. Use the keyboard to type words or phrases when searching your reading material or

items in the Kindle Store. You can also use the keyboard to create notes while reading. All of these are covered in more detail

later in this guide.

Navigating this Guide

You navigate the Kindle User's Guide just like any other book on your Kindle. To navigate, follow these steps:

To go forward or back one page at a time: use the Next Page and Previous Page buttons. These buttons are labeled

with >(for Next Page) and <(for Previous Page) and are conveniently located on both sides of your Kindle.

To go to the next or previous chapter: press the right (>) or left ( <) button on the 5-way controller

To go to the beginning of this guide, or to go to the Table of Contents: press Menu and select “Go to”, and then select

“table of contents” or “beginning”.

To retrace your steps: press the Back button.

For more details on navigating your books and other content, see “Moving from Place to Place” in Chapter 3.
