Power and Charging

When the touchscreen is dimmed, you can still use it. Tap a menu choice or button, that action will
be carried out, and the touchscreen will brighten.
To light up the touchscreen, tap the touchscreen, tap the Home button, or press and release the
power button.
Sleep
:
To save power, your
NOOK
sleeps after a period of inactivity. It turns off its touchscreen and
wireless circuitry. While your
NOOK
is sleeping it displays a screensaver image on the reading
screen. Configure the sleep timer in Settings. Tap
settings > Display > Sleep timer
.
Do not rely on sleep mode when you should turn on Airplane mode (for example, on an
airplane).
To wake your
NOOK
from sleep, press the power button briefly (for a second or so) and release it.
When your
NOOK
awakens from sleep, you are right where you were when it went to sleep.
For normal use, because the reading screen does not consume power, just let your
NOOK
sleep. It takes longer for your
NOOK
to turn on from off than it does to wake from sleep.
Also, by letting it sleep instead of turning it off, your
NOOK
wakes up periodically to
perform tasks like downloading new content.
USB drive mode
:
When you plug your
NOOK
into a personal computer, it connects to USB. This puts your
NOOK
in
USB drive mode. In this mode, you can access files on your
NOOK
from your personal computer,
but your
NOOK
is locked until you disconnect it from USB.
Power Button
The shiny metal strip at the top of your
NOOK
is the power button:
To turn your
NOOK
on, display the touchscreen, awaken your
NOOK
from sleep, or cause your
NOOK
to sleep, press the power button for about 1 second and then release it.
