Chapter 1 Getting Started withYour Kindle

Back View

The back of your Kindle contains stereo speakers for audio content. The speakers are located near the top right and left edges on the back of Kindle.

1.2 Getting Around

To get around on your Kindle, you use the buttons, menus, and the keyboard—all of which are explained here.

Using the Buttons

In the Welcome section you learned about the navigation buttons (Previous Page, Next Page, and Back). For an explanation of what each button does, see “Front View.”

Using the Menus

In addition to the physical buttons, you also navigate Kindle using the menus. Kindle’s menus are context sensitive, but they all work the same way.

You use the 5-way controller to navigate within the menu and press the 5-way to select an item.

The illustration below shows the Home menu; the bold line under “Shop in Kindle Store” indicates that it is ready to be selected.
