Kindle User’s Guide 7
Chapter 1 Getting Started
Activity indicator
This indicator appears in the top left corner of your Kindle screen when the device is busy
downloading new content, synching and checking for new items, searching for an item,
opening a large PDF file, or loading a web page.
Airplane Mode indicator
This indicator appears when your Kindle is in Airplane Mode and you have no wireless
connectivity.
Parental Control indicator
This indicator appears when Parental Controls are enabled for your Kindle. Parental Controls
let you restrict access to the Experimental Web Browser, Kindle Store, and Archived Items.
Parents may use this feature to prevent children from purchasing content without their
permission and from browsing any inappropriate online content.
Setting up your Kindle
Setting up your Kindle includes connecting to a Wi-Fi network and registering your Kindle to
an Amazon account.
Wi-Fi Connectivity
Books, magazines, and other materials are delivered directly to your Kindle via its built-in
Wi-Fi connectivity. You can connect to networks at home or at Wi-Fi hotspots around the
world. To view available Wi-Fi networks, from the Home screen press the Menu button, and
then select Settings. On the Settings page, select “view” next to Wi-Fi Network. Identify the
network you want to use, then select “connect.” If you see a lock symbol next to “connect,
the network requires a password. Keep your Kindle connected to a Wi-Fi network to promptly
receive updates for your Kindle.
Registering Your Kindle
If you bought your Kindle online using your Amazon account, or have already gone through
the Kindle setup process, it is already registered and ready to use. To verify, press the Home
button and look for your Kindle name in the upper left corner of the Home screen. If it says
My Kindle or shows the name of a previous owner, you’ll need to register it.
To register a Kindle that has not been previously registered, go to the Home screen, select
Set Up Your Kindle, and follow the onscreen prompts. Once you have completed the setup
process, Set Up Your Kindle will no longer appear on your Home screen.
To register a Kindle that has been previously registered, press the Home button, and then
press the Menu button. Select the Settings option, and then Registration.
Special Offers & Sponsored Screensavers
For Kindle with Special Offers, you will receive Special Offers and Sponsored Screensavers
that only display on your Kindle’s Home screen or screensaver—not within a book. Note that
Special Offers and Sponsored Screensavers are not available in all countries.
Screensaver
When your device is sleeping, Special Offers and Sponsored Screensavers will be displayed
on your screensaver. To wake your Kindle, press the power button or, to see more details
on the special offer, press and hold the center of the 5-way controller. Special Offers &
Sponsored Screensavers are updated regularly when your Kindle is connected to Wi-Fi.
