Continue reading in a Daisy book
Milestone automatically continues to read where you stopped to read before. The marker is
set automatically, and it is stored inside the book you read. It is important to know that this
marker is set only if Milestone puts itself into the sleep mode, or a PC is connected, or the
book is changed to another book on the same memory card, or you change to a different
mode of your Milestone, for example "internal memory". Just pressing stop/pause or
removing the memory card does not save the marker in a book.

Bookmarks
7.3.1.
Inserting bookmarks
To insert a bookmark press the “Rec” button for at least two seconds. Milestone will
announce “bookmark set“. The bookmark is saved in the book. Bookmarks in different
books are therefore inserted entirely unconnected of each other. Bookmarks are inserted on
the SD memory card just as the book itself. You may therefore pass on your book together
with the bookmarks to a friend.
7.3.2.
Erasing one bookmark
To erase one bookmark press the “Mode” button and additionally the “Play” button.
Milestone will announce “bookmark erased“.
7.3.3.
Erasing all bookmarks
To erase all bookmarks in the current book press the four buttons “Mode”, “Play”, “FF” and
“Rew” simultaneously in this order. Start with “Mode”, then press “Play” in addition, then
“FF” and “Rew”. Another order will not erase the bookmarks.

Playback of a Daisy book
7.4.1.
Preparations to start a Daisy book
To listen to a Daisy book it needs to be located on your SD memory card. Press the
“Selector” button on the face side until you hear the announcement “Daisy player”.
If Milestone does not react when pressing the “Selector” button, you have to activate it or
unlock the keyboard (see above).
7.4.2.
Start / stop reading
To start the reading press the “Play” button in the middle of the keyboard. The same button
also has a pause function. You may pause playback by pressing the “Play” button again
and you may resume seamless playback by pressing the “Play” button once more.
When you start the playback of a book for the first time you will hear a strange low chirp for a
few seconds. This indicates that Milestone is carrying out a sorting process to subsequently
access the structure of the Daisy book very quickly. Thus, you may enjoy very efficient
navigation in your book.
