Power and Charging
This section explains your
NOOK
’s power management and charging.
Device States
Your
NOOK
is in one of five states:
Off
:
Your
NOOK
is off. Nothing is running.
When you first take your
NOOK
out of the package, it is off. We recommend that you also turn
your
NOOK
off when storing it for an extended period and when in checked baggage on an
airplane.
To turn your
NOOK
off, press and hold the power button for about 5 seconds, until the reading
screen is white and the touchscreen is dark. Then release the power button.
Do not turn off your
NOOK
while it is plugged into a power adapter or USB. If you do, it
will not charge.
On
:
Your
NOOK
is on. When your
NOOK
is on, everything works. The main and touch screens are both
lit, and you can read content and listen to music or audiobooks. If Airplane mode is on, you cannot
do things that require the radio, such as shopping at the B&N eBookstore.
To turn your
NOOK
on, press the power button briefly (for a second or so) and release it, connect
your
NOOK
to a personal computer using the USB cable, or begin charging your
NOOK
using a wall
outlet.
When your
NOOK
powers on, it takes you to the Home screen. It also connects to the network
and scans the microSD
TM
card to check for changes in content.
If you are just charging your
NOOK
and don’t need it to be on, don’t worry. It will go to sleep.
Touchscreen backlight dimmed and then turned off
:
To save power, your
NOOK
automatically dims the touchscreen and then turns it off when the
touchscreen is not being used. Everything else is still on. You can continue turning pages with the
Next Page and Previous Page buttons, or by swiping your finger on the unlit touchscreen. You
can continue listening to music or an audiobook. Configure the touchscreen timer in Settings. Tap
settings > Display > Touchscreen timer
