in a wet basement or near a swimming pool.
2. Avoid using the eBook during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from
lightning.
3. Use only the power cord and batteries indicated in this manual. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire.
They may explode. Check with local codes for possible special disposal instructions.
4. CAUTION - To reduce the risk of fire, use only No. 26 AWG or larger telecommunication line cord.

Your eBook is a compact, handheld electronic reading device. It has a unique high-resolution, backlit screen
that provides an optimal reading experience regardless of the available light. At just 18 ounces, the eBook goes
anywhere. It's your portable bookshelf.
How does it work? You can buy specially prepared electronic reading materials, called "eBook Editions™ ".

Look for the at online bookstores. The first thing you need to do before purchasing eBook Editions is to
register your eBook through the built-in modem. It is important you register your eBook because each eBook
Edition you buy is specially encoded so it can only be read on your specific eBook. The registration process
identifies you as the owner of your particular unit. The special encoding gives protection for both you and the
author's copyright, since it prevents copies of your Editions from being redistributed illegally. If you have not
already registered your eBook, refer to the registration setup in the Quick Start Guide. See
for more details on using the modem.
Setting Your
Modem Preferences
The modem also allows you to purchase eBook Editions without using a PC. Once your registration is
complete you can purchase eBook Editions through the eBook catalogs. After purchasing, simply download to
store them on your eBook. Because they are stored directly on your eBook, you can easily access the eBook
Editions at any time within the United States and Canada.
You cannot play sound clips while using the modem.NOTE:
Your eBook has room to store multiple eBook Editions, and you can purchase an optional SMART
MEDIA™ card to increase the memory for additional storage space. If you have used all the memory and
want to download more eBook Editions,you can use a SMART MEDIA card with your Smart Media
connection. See for more details. You can even remove purchased
eBook Editions from your eBook and SMART MEDIA card without any problem, since you can always
download them again using the modem. You'll never have to buy the same eBook Edition twice!

use the Page Back and Page Forward buttons, located on the spine of the eBook.
You can also use a "silent reading" mode if you want to eliminate even the quiet click of the page buttons. To
do this, you can use the icon to perform the paging functions. See for more
information.
Shortcut Setting the Shortcut Icon

going page by page. Your eBook has a number of features that allow you to move quickly to a specific
location.

eBook Edition when you buy it.
Page Navigation Bar
Your eBook gives you a visual representation of where you are in your eBook Edition with the page navigation
bar. This is the thin bar that appears on the right edge of the screen when you read an eBook Edition. The
whole bar represents the entire eBook Edition. The dark part of the bar shows where you are with respect to
the whole text.
You can use the page navigation bar just like you use the thickness of a book to open to an approximate
location. You can also use the page navigation bar to find out how much of the text you have read. Note that
the percentage displayed is affected by the font and size you've selected, as well as by the page orientation.
This is because the amount of text that appears on an eBook page can change if you change these elements.
To move around the selected eBook Edition quickly using the page navigation bar:
1. Tap anywhere along the thin page navigation bar at the right edge of the screen.
A dark instruction banner with two page buttons appears. For example:
the page you're on currently.13%:
the page that corresponds to the place you tapped.Go To 48%:

If the instruction banner covers text you want to read, you can tap the arrow on
the banner to move it to the opposite edge of the page.

the edges of the image that continue past the edge of the screen. You can tap the arrows to scroll the hidden
portion of the image into view. Alternatively, you can simply touch the image anywhere and drag on the screen
away from the arrows to bring the rest of it into view. When you are done viewing the illustration, use the Page
Back or Page Forward buttons to continue reading.
An example illustration is included below. If you are viewing this manual on an eBook, you can try using the
arrows to view the off-screen portion of the image.

Playing Sound Clips
If the eBook Edition you are reading includes a sound clip, you can play it by clicking on the link provided. To
hear the sound clip, use any standard set of headphones or earbuds. You can stop playing it simply by tapping
anywhere on the screen. In the example given below, the sound clip is identified by a speaker icon. If you are
reading this manual on your eBook, plug in a set of standard headphones or earbuds into the headphone jack
on your eBook and tap on the speaker icon to listen to the sound clip. (If you are reading this on a browser
that is set up for sound capability, you can also click on the speaker icon to play it.)
You cannot use the modem while playing sound clips.NOTE:

Your eBook also makes searching for specific text much easier than thumbing through pages. There's even a
