Front Face of the Player
The face of the player can be divided into upper and lower sections:
In the upper section are 5 rows of 3 keys each. The top left key is the
Go To Page
key to
allow you to go directly to a desired page or heading number. Above the
Go To Page
key
is a very small hole. This is the built-in mono microphone. To the right of the
Go To Page
key is the circular shaped
Online
key for enabling/disabling Airplane Mode (Wi-Fi) and
switching between
the player’s standard and online bookshelves. At the 2 o’clock position
of this
Online
key is a LED which glows amber
when the player’s Wi-Fi feature is
enabled. The LED blinks when actively trying to connect to a network. The LED is turned
off when the airplane mode is enabled and when the Stream has no network
configuration. To the right of the
Online
key is the
Bookmark
key for setting and
returning to marked passages. Rows 2 through 5 comprise a 12 key telephone-style
numeric key pad with two raised dots on the number

key. This numeric key pad is used
to move through the structure of a book as well as enter bookmark, page, or heading
numbers.
Below the number pad is a raised horizontal line that separates the upper and lower
sections. The lower section contains 4 keys. The
Play/Stop
key is located at the bottom
of the player between the
Rewind

Fast Forward
keys. Above the
Play/Stop
key is
the
Sleep
key. Press this
Sleep
key once to announce the time and date. Press it
multiple times to activate different Sleep timers after which the player will automatically
shut off.
