use PagePress to navigate your library on the Home screen. Your Kindle must be in portrait
mode to use PagePress.
Power button: To turn your Kindle on, press the Power button located on the back. If you
need to turn off your Kindle screen, press and hold the Power button for 7 seconds until the
Power dialog displays and then select Screen Off.
Your Kindle will go into sleep mode automatically after a few minutes of inactivity and a
screen saver will display. This static screen saver uses no battery power. To put your Kindle
in sleep mode, press and release the Power button. To wake up your Kindle, press and release
the Power button.
If your Kindle does not power on or is unresponsive during use and you need to restart it,
press and hold the Power button for 7 seconds until the Power dialog displays and then select
Restart. If the Power dialog does not display, press and hold the Power button for 40 seconds
or until the LED light stops blinking.
Micro-USB/power port: You can use the USB cable supplied to connect your Kindle to a
computer for charging the battery and transferring files. To charge your Kindle from a power
outlet, you will need a compatible AC adaptor (sold separately) for the USB cable.
When your Kindle is charging, a lightning bolt appears on the battery status indicator at the
top of the Home screen. The indicator light on the bottom edge will turn amber while the
battery is charging and green when it is fully charged. Charging should take less than four
hours using a Kindle AC adaptor. Charging using third-party adaptors or via USB should take
less than four hours, but may take longer depending on the capability of the hardware.
You can still use your Kindle whilst it is connected to your computer and charging via USB.
To do so, dismount or eject it so that your Kindle exits USB drive mode.
Windows: Right-click on the "Safely remove hardware" icon in the task bar and follow the
onscreen instructions to remove your Kindle.
Mac OS X: Click the Eject button next to the Kindle in any Finder window, or drag it from
the Desktop to the Trash.
Your Kindle will then exit USB drive mode, but will continue to charge. If the charge indicator
light on the bottom edge of the Kindle does not come on, make sure that the USB cable is
fully inserted into your Kindle and into the USB port of the computer. If your Kindle is still
not charging, try another USB port or electrical socket.
Note that if your Kindle is plugged into a low-powered USB port — such as those found on
some keyboards and older computers — it will not receive enough power to charge.

Touchscreen interface

Your Kindle Voyage features a touchscreen interface that enables you to perform many tasks
with just a tap or swipe of a finger. To select an item, simply tap it. For example, tap a book
cover or title on your Home screen to open the book, or tap a button to perform that button's
action.
