By default, the upper button on each side of the screen turns the page backward, and the lower button turns the page forward. You can change these settings on the Reader settings screen, which you can access through the Settings button on the Quick Nav Bar.

These buttons also can be used to scroll through scrollable pages in the Library and the Shop. Press either of the lower page-turn buttons to scroll down. Press either of the upper page-turn buttons to scroll up.
