Turning Your NOOK On and Off
Turning On Your NOOK
To turn on your NOOK, press the power button on the back of your NOOK. Hold the button down for 2 seconds
and release it.
Your NOOK starts up.
Turning Off Your NOOK
You do not need to turn your NOOK off when you stop using it.
With a fully charged battery and Wi-Fi turned off, your NOOK has enough power to support up to two months of
casual reading. With a fully charged battery and Wi-Fi turned on, your NOOK has enough power to support 3 weeks
of casual reading.
If you are carrying your NOOK without a cover in a bag or purse, you might want to turn off your NOOK to avoid it
being accidentally turned on from its “sleeping” state. You also might want to turn off your NOOK simply to con-
serve power.
To turn off your NOOK, do this:
1. Press the power button and hold it down for 5 seconds.
A window appears, asking if you really want to turn your NOOK completely off.
2. Tap the
Power off
button in the dialog box.
Your NOOK turns off.
NOTE: If you ignore the window asking you to confirm that you want to power off your NOOK, after several
seconds the window disappears and your NOOK resumes whatever it was doing before you pressed
the power button.
