You need to learn only a few simple controls to navigate around your Kindle.
The Next Page and Previous Page buttons. buttons are located on each side of the
screen so that you can hold your Kindle with either hand while reading.
Back button: Use this button to retrace your steps. For example, you can follow a web link
from a book, then press the Back button to return to your place in the book.
Keyboard button: This button brings up an onscreen keyboard for entering text. Use the
5-way controller to navigate the keyboard. You can dismiss the keyboard either by pressing
the Done button or the keyboard button. When searching for a title or author, press the
keyboard button, enter your search string, and select the return key on the onscreen keyboard
to initiate the search.
5-way controller: The 5-way controller enables you to quickly perform many common tasks
on your Kindle. It has a center select button plus four arrows. To scroll up or down on a page,
use the Up and Down arrows. When reading a book with chapters, you can use the Left and
Right arrows to skip from chapter to chapter. Please note that pressing the Left and Right
arrows to change chapters is not supported in all books. You can also use the Left and Right
arrows to move the cursor along a line of text. To select a menu item, press the Up or Down
Arrow until the item you want is underlined, then press the center select button on the 5-way
controller to select it.
