KINDLE USER’S GUIDE Welcome   •   13
Congratulations!
You are reading on your new Kindle.
If you haven't done so already, please follow the Quick Start Guide instructions that 
came with your Kindle and plug your Kindle into a power source to charge the battery. 
The charge indicator light on the bottom edge of your Kindle turns yellow and a 
lightning bolt appears on the battery icon at the top of the display. Charging the battery 
fully should take less than three hours and you can continue reading while it charges.
Tip: The charge indicator light will turn green when the battery is fully charged.
If you prefer to read the Kindle User’s Guide side-by-side with the device, you can 
download and print a PDF copy at:
http://www.amazon.com/kindledocuments (U.S. and other countries)
http://www.amazon.co.uk/kindledocuments (U.K. customers)
You can also download the .AZW version of the Kindle User’s Guide and read it on any 
supported device (for example, Kindle for iPhone or Kindle for PC). For a complete list 
of supported devices, visit the Kindle Store on the Amazon website.
