Changing the Screen Timeout

By default, your NOOK dims its screen after two minutes of inactivity to save power. You change this two-minute interval to five minutes, 15 minutes, or 1 hour. Keep in mind that longer timeout periods consume more power, since the screen will be illuminated even when no activity is taking place.

To change the screen timeout interval, do this:

1.Open the General settings screen by tapping the General menu choice on the All Settings screen.

2.Find the SCREEN area of the scrollable panel on the right. Tap Screen Timeout. A window opens listing four choices for the screen timeout interval:

•2 minutes•5 minutes•15 minutes•1 hour

3.Tap the round button for the screen timeout interval you want. Your choice takes effect right away.

To return to the General Settings screen, tap the back arrow at the top of the right-hand panel.
