Getting Started
Select the Keyboards option. If you have selected multiple keyboards a Globe key is
added to your keyboard. To select a different keyboard, tap the Globe key.
Your Kindle supports the entry of diacritics and special characters using the keyboard. To
display these characters, press and hold the base letter's key. For example, press and
hold the "n" to display ǹ, ñ, or ň.

Tap zones

The EasyReach feature of your Kindle lets you effortlessly turn pages in a book or
periodical whilst holding the device with just one hand. Tapping almost anywhere in the
display area will take you to the next page; the area is large enough to be tapped whether
you hold the device with your left or right hand. Tap the left side of the screen to go to the
previous page. The EasyReach tap zones differ depending on whether your Kindle is in
portrait or landscape mode. When reading, you can change the screen orientation by
tapping on the Menu button and selecting Portrait or Landscape Mode. Note that the
option displayed depends on the current orientation of your Kindle.
