CAUTION: Only use the Barnes & Noble power adapter and custom microUSB cable supplied 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.
NOTE: Using your NOOK's microUSB cable, you can connect your NOOK to your personal computer to
transfer files. However, connecting your NOOK to your personal computer may not fully charge
your NOOK. To charge your NOOK, you must plug it into a wall outlet.
To charge your NOOK from a wall outlet, do this:
1. Assemble the power adapter and microUSB cable. Insert the large end of the USB cable into the matching recep-
tacle on the power adapter.
2. Plug the NOOK end of the USB cable into your NOOK.
3. Plug the power adapter into a compatible electrical outlet. If your NOOK was turned off, it will now turn itself
on.
NOTE: Depending on how much power remains in the battery, it might take around 3-4 hours to fully recharge
your NOOK. Do not turn off your NOOK while it is charging.
NOTE: Once your NOOK has enough power to turn on, you can see how much power remains in the battery
by checking the battery charge indicator in the right corner of the Status Bar. You may need to drag the
green NOOK symbol to the right across your screen to unlock your NOOK and display the Status Bar,
which runs along the bottom of the screen.
4. Once your NOOK has fully charged, unplug the power adapter from the electrical outlet. Unplug the USB cable
from your NOOK.
