Customising your Kindle settings

To go to the Settings page, tap the Menu button and select Settings. Your Kindle must be
registered to view all settings. The available settings are:
Aeroplane Mode: Allows you to enable or disable wireless connectivity.
Wi-Fi Networks: Use this option to connect to a Wi-Fi network, display a list of available
networks and view the name of the Wi-Fi network you are currently connected to, if any.
Registration and Household: Enables you to manage your household and displays the
Amazon account name to which your Kindle is registered. Use this option to register and
deregister your Kindle.
Household and Family Library: Add individuals to your household to share content. For
more information, see Managing your Amazon household. This feature is not available in all
countries.
Register/Deregister Device: Use this option to register and deregister your device.
Device Options: Lets you set a passcode, enable Parental Controls, personalise your Kindle
and select languages and dictionaries.
Device Passcode: Enables you to restrict access to your Kindle by setting a passcode. You'll
subsequently be prompted to enter the passcode whenever you turn on the device or wake
it from sleep. If you can't remember your passcode, you will have to contact Kindle
Customer Service.
Parental Controls: Choose between Kindle for Kids and Restrictions. Use Kindle for Kids
to create personalised profiles for your child, select books from your library to share and set
daily reading goals while automatically blocking access to places you may not want your
child to go, such as the Kindle Store, Goodreads on Kindle or the Experimental Web
Browser. Use Restrictions to manually block the Experimental Web Browser, Kindle Store,
Amazon Cloud and/or Goodreads on Kindle. When you set up Kindle for Kids or turn on a
restriction for the first time, you will be prompted to create a password. Note that this
password will be required to make changes to settings within Parental Controls. To change
the password, select Change Password from the Parental Controls screen. If you forget your
password, reset it by visiting www.amazon.com/devicesupport and deregistering your
device or by contacting Kindle Customer Service. When restrictions are enabled or a Kindle
for Kids profile is active, you will see a lock icon at the top of the screen next to the Wi-
Fi/3G status indicator, and the Deregistration and Reset Device options will be disabled.
Screen Light: Lets you manage the Nightlight setting.
Nightlight: Enable this setting to gradually reduce the screen brightness over time as your
eyes adjust while reading or using your Kindle in the dark. To use this feature, Auto
