Power and Charging

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 will start 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 off completely. 

2.  Tap the 

Power off

 button in the dialog box. 

Your NOOK will turn 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.

Charging Your NOOK

There are two ways to charge your NOOK. You can plug it into your personal computer. Or you can use a power 
adapter and plug it into a wall socket, after following the power adapter assembly instructions below. (If your NOOK 
does not include a power adapter in the box, you can purchase one from your retailer or online at http://NOOK.
co.uk.) 

CAUTION: 

If you are using a power adapter, use only a NOOK power adapter and custom microUSB cable sup-
plied with your NOOK. Other power adapters might damage your NOOK and its battery. Do not use 
a power adapter and cable intended for other models of NOOK eReader. Use only a NOOK Simple 
Touch power adapter and cable.
