Getting Started
Welcome to your new Kindle Paperwhite. This short guide will familiarize you with all of the
features and functionality of your Kindle. Some Kindle features may not be available based on
your country of residence or location. Please visit http://www.amazon.com/devicesupport
for more information about specific features.
Registering your Kindle
If you bought your Kindle online using your Amazon account, it is already registered to you.
To verify, tap the Home button and look for your Amazon user name in the upper left corner
of the Home screen. If it says My Kindle or shows the name of a previous owner instead of
your own Amazon account name, you'll need to register it. See Setting up your Kindle
Paperwhite in this chapter for instructions on setting up and registering your Kindle.
Kindle controls
You need to learn only a few simple controls to use your Kindle Paperwhite.
