Configuring Security Settings

Using a Device Passcode to Protect Your NOOK
To set up a device passcode for your profile so that no one can pick up your NOOK and start using it
without first entering the passcode, do this:
1. Open the General settings screen by tapping the General menu choice on the All Settings screen.
2. Scroll down the General settings screen until you see the heading SECURITY.
3. Tap the Screen lock menu choice.
A Screen Lock window opens.
4. Tap the Passcode toggle switch.
A dialog box opens, explaining that your passcode will be required for all profiles on the device and that child
profiles will not be able to access content in other profiles once the passcode is set.
5. Tap the Set Passcode button.
A window with a keypad opens.
6. Enter the sequence you want to use as your passcode. Tap the Continue button.
7. Re-enter the passcode to confirm it. Tap Continue again.
You have set up your passcode.
