Readingyourdocuments

Your eReader displays documents differently than books. You can zoom in and out of documents

KOBOEREADERUSERGUIDE 11

to see text better. If you are zoomed out so that you can see the entire page of a document, then

you can turn pages using the Navigation Pad in the same way as when you read a book. Pressing

left or up takes you back a page, while pressing right or down pages forward.

If you are zoomed in and the document page takes up more space than the screen shows, then the

Navigation Pad lets you move the document page around instead.

Within a document, you can use the right- and left- directions on the Navigation Pad to go to the

next and previous pages, respectively. To turn the page, you must either zoom out and then turn

the page, or you can use the Navigation Pad to move to the edge of the page and then page

forward or back (you must be at the left edge of the page to go back, or the right edge to go

forward).

document again, it takes you back to the same place so that you can continue reading.

Navigatingyourdocument

•Next Section: Jump to the start of the next section.

•Table of Contents: Go to the Table of Contents, from which you can jump to a

specific part of the document.

screen. To see your viewing options, press the MENU button and select DISPLAY to open the

Display menu. Here you can choose to change the magnification of your document (how much

you are zoomed in or out), or you can change the orientation. If you choose Portrait as your

orientation, your document will be formatted so that you can read it with the eReader in its

normal position. If you choose Landscape, the document will be oriented so that you can turn the

eReader and read with it held lengthwise.

Viewingadocumentoverview

The Overview page gives a brief synopsis of your document’s content, and provides details like

the number of pages, filename, file size, and the dates it was both created and added to your

eReader. Not all documents provide this information.

TO DOCUMENT.

KOBOEREADERUSERGUIDE 12

ShoppingFromYoureReader

Your Kobo eReader supports Wi Fi, which is a type of wireless network. By connecting to a

wireless network you can shop at the Kobo Store and download books on the go, without a

computer. You can also synchronize your eReader with your Kobo account, so that your books

and bookmarks are kept up-to-date.

Understandingwirelessnetworks

A wireless network lets you connect to the Internet using radio signals. Because it uses radio

signals, a wireless network has a range. This is the area in which you can connect to the network.

If you are within a wireless network’s range, your eReader will find a strong signal and you

should be able to connect to it without problems. If you are on the edge of the network’s range

(or if there is interference), the network’s signal may be weak and you may have trouble

connecting. If you leave a network’s range while connected to it, you will lose your connection

to the Internet.

Wireless networks are so common that depending on where you are, there may be several

wireless networks in the area.

UsingyoureReaderwithawirelessnetwork

Your Kobo eReader lets you connect to Wi Fi wireless networks in order to access the Kobo

Store. To set up a network connection, all you need to do is press the SHOP button. This brings

up a menu, from which you can select SHOP NOW. Your eReader will check to see if you’re

connected to a wireless network, and if you aren’t it will prompt you to connect.

It automatically scans your area for available wireless networks, and lists these in two sections –

KNOWN NETWORKS and UNKNOWN NETWORKS.

Known Networks are networks in your area that you’ve connected to before. Unknown Networks

are networks that are available, but that you have never used.

If you have used Wi Fi before, your eReader will automatically reconnect you to a Known

Network when you try to visit the Kobo Store. For example, if you have a wireless network at

home that you normally access from your eReader, it will reconnect to this network when you

come home from work and start shopping for a new book.

If there are several Known Networks in your area, your eReader will automatically connect to

the one with the strongest signal in order to give you the best connection.

ConnectingtotheKoboStoreviaawirelessInternetconnection(WiFi)

In order to shop from your Kobo eReader, you need to set up a wireless (Wi Fi) Internet

connection to the Kobo Store. To do this all you need is your eReader and access to a wireless

network in your area.

To connect to the Kobo Store from your eReader:

1. Press the SHOP button.

2. Select SHOP NOW.

Your Kobo eReader lists any wireless networks it finds in your area.

3. Highlight and select the network you want to join.

Some networks are secured. If you select a secure network, your eReader will prompt you

for a network password. Enter it and click JOIN.

KOBOEREADERUSERGUIDE 13

(See “Using a secure network” for more information.)

That’s it! Once connected, your eReader will take you directly to the Kobo Store.

Usingasecurenetwork

Some wireless networks use security to control who can use the network, and to encrypt

information sent over the network. If you see a lock icon next to a network name on your Kobo

eReader, this means that the network is secured. You will need a password to use the network.

There are different types of security used by wireless networks. The Kobo eReader supports

WEP, WPA, and WPA2 Personal.

If you choose a secure network from your eReader’s list of KNOWN NETWORKS or UNKNOWN

NETWORKS, you will see a password prompt. To use the secure network:

1. Enter the network password using the virtual keyboard.

2. Click JOIN.

If you enter the password correctly and your eReader successfully connects to the network, it

will add the network to your KNOWN NETWORKS list and automatically take you to the Kobo

Store.

If your eReader cannot connect to the network for some reason, it will return you to the password

prompt. Check that you entered your password correctly and try re-joining the network.

Addinganewnetwork

Some networks are hidden, and your eReader will not find them when it scans your area for new

networks. If you want to use a hidden network, you can manually add it to your eReader’s list of

KNOWN NETWORKS. To do this you will need to know:

•the network name

•the type of security it uses

•a password for the network

NOTE: You must be within range of the hidden network in order to join it.

ToconfigureanewnetworkonyoureReader

1. Press the SHOP button.

2. Select WIRELESS SETTINGS.

3. Navigate to the ADD NETWORK button.

Your eReader will prompt you to enter information about the network.

4. Enter the network’s name, which is also called its SSID.

5. Choose the type of security used by the network.

The Kobo eReader can connect to networks that use WEP, WPA, or WPA2 Personal

security.

6. Enter a password for the network.

7. Click JOIN NETWORK.

If your eReader successfully connects to the hidden network, it will add the network to

KOBOEREADERUSERGUIDE 14

your KNOWN NETWORKS list and automatically take you to the Kobo Store.

If your eReader cannot connect to the network for some reason, it will return you to the

setup page. Check that you entered all of the network details correctly and try re-joining

the network.

NavigatingtheeReaderStore

You navigate the STORE pages the same way you navigate other eReader screens. Press up and

down on the Navigation Pad to move up and down on the page. Highlight an item, then press the

center button to select it.

At the top of the page you’ll find a series of links to popular parts of the Kobo Store. To use these

links, press up on the Navigation Pad until the first link is highlighted, then press left or right to

select the link you’re interested in.

The main Store links include:

•HOME – takes you to the main STORE page from other parts of the Kobo Store. You’ll

find the day’s hottest books featured in the Top 50 list, links to the most popular

categories and recommended reading lists, and a selection of featured books.

•BROWSE CATEGORIES – lets you browse for a specific type of book.

•RECOMMENDED READS – shows you lists of books that share a common theme, or

that come recommended by other readers.

•FREE – shows a list of free books available through the Kobo Store.

You can even search for a specific book. Press the MENU button, then select SEARCH from under

STORE.

To get more information on a book, highlight and select its title. Your eReader will display a

synopsis of the book, and its rating.

Buyingabookforthefirsttime

Once you find a book that interests you, select the BUY NOW link to purchase it.

Your eReader will prompt you to sign in or create a new account.

•To sign in, use the virtual keyboard to enter the email address associated with your

Kobo account, and your password. Click SIGN INto continue.

•If you don’t have a Kobo account, select GET STARTED to create one. You’ll be

prompted to choose and enter a valid email address and password for your new account.

Fill in the fields on the CREATE ACCOUNT screen, then click CREATEACCOUNT.

NOTE: When you click CREATE ACCOUNT, you automatically agree to the Kobo

Your eReader checks to see if you have credit card information on file. If not, the CHECKOUT –

PAYMENT screen will appear. Enter your credit card details, then click CONTINUE. On the

CHECKOUT –BILLING screen, enter the address associated with your credit card. Click

CONTINUE when you’re done.

Kobo automatically saves your payment and billing information so that you only need to fill in

these fields the first time you buy a book.

Once you’re all set, the CHECKOUT –VERIFY screen appears, showing the book you chose and a

summary of your payment details. Make certain everything looks okay, then select BUY NOW to

KOBOEREADERUSERGUIDE 15

complete your purchase. Your eReader downloads your new book. You’ll find it in the BOOKS

and I’M READING areas.

TIP: You can also access your new book on your computer using the Kobo

Desktop Application, or on smartphones and tablets that support the free Kobo

applications. Just sign in on your computer or device and update your library.

In the future, all you need to do to buy books is select an item’s BUY NOW link in the Kobo Store.

Since your payment and billing information is now stored, your eReader will take you directly to

the CHECKOUT –VERIFY screen to complete your purchase.

Updatingcreditcardinformation

If you need to update the credit card information you use when shopping the Kobo Store, the

easiest way is to visit kobobooks.com. Just sign in to change your billing information online.

Synchronizingyourlibraryandbookmarks

If you read and shop for books using the Kobo Desktop Application or one of the free Kobo

applications for smartphones, then you may want to synchronize your eReader with these

applications.

Synchronizing involves updating your Kobo account with information about the books you have

bought and the books you’re reading. It ensures that your bookmarks and purchased books are

kept up-to-date and available to you no matter how you access them.

For example, lets say you start reading a book on your eReader but later switch to the Kobo

Desktop Application. In this case syncing your bookmarks ensures that the Kobo Desktop

Application knows which page you last read in your book.

This also works for books you purchase from the Kobo Store. For example, lets say you bought a

book using a Kobo app on your smartphone, but later want to read it on your eReader.

Synchronizing ensures that your Kobo account has a list of all the books you’ve purchased, so

that when you connect and synchronize you can update your library with copies. In this case

your eReader would automatically download your new book when you synchronized it. It will

even get your bookmarks so that you can continue reading where you left off on your

smartphone.

NOTE: Your eReader can only synchronize books that you’ve purchased through

the Kobo Store.

Synchronizing is easy. All you need to synchronize is a Kobo account and access to a wireless

network.

To synchronize your library and bookmarks:

1. Press the SHOP button.

2. Highlight and select UPDATE LIBRARY.

If you’re not connected to a nearby wireless network, you’ll be prompted to either

join an existing network or add a new network.

If you’re not signed in to your Kobo account, the SIGN INscreen appears. Create

an account or sign in.
