nook User Guide Personalizing your NOOK 71

To choose a screensaver set:

1 On the Home menu, tap settings.

2 Tap Display > Screensaver.

3 Tap the screensaver set you want to use. The names correspond to folder names in the folder

my screensavers in the internal memory. When your

NOOK sleeps, you will see the next

screensaver image in the set.

Uncommonly, you might see a screensaver image of the Golden Gate Bridge when you are

not using the Cityscape screensaver set. This is a fallback screensaver image that is used if

your

NOOK temporarily cannot use one of the images in your chosen set. The next time

your

NOOK displays a screensaver image, it should be one from your chosen screensaver

set.
