Barnes & Noble NOOK HD+ User Guide 101
In Auto mode, the Reader reads book or periodical content continuously, highlighting each sentence on the screen
as it goes. When it reaches the end of a page, the Reader will turn the page automatically and continue reading.The
reading continues until you tap once anywhere on the screen. This single tap returns the Reader to Manual mode.
In Menu mode, you select choices to configure the Accessibility Reader or to take an action such as defining a word.

Starting the Accessibility Reader
Once you have enabled accessibility through the Reader settings screen, starting the Accessibility Reader is as simple
as opening a book. When the book or periodical is opened, the Accessibility Reader runs in Manual mode. It begins
by stating the current page number and how many pages are in the book or periodical in total.
A single click will put the Accessibility Reader in Auto mode. The book or periodical will be read to you until you click
again to return to Manual mode.
Navigating in Manual Mode
In Manual mode, you can move by page, by sentence, and by word.
To move forward one page, swipe to the left with one finger. To move forward one sentence, swipe left with two
fingers. To move forward one word, swipe left with three fingers.
To move backward a page, swipe to the right with one finger. To move back one sentence, swipe right with two
fingers. To move backward one word, swipe right with three fingers.
If you are moving word by word, you can move to a word to select it and then use the Menu mode to select an op-
tion for defining the word or spelling the word. Menu mode is described below.
Using the Menu System
You can switch to Menu mode from Manual mode by pressing and holding on the screen. Once you enter Menu
mode, the Accessibility Reader announces the currently highlighted menu selection. Single flicks up or down will move
you through the various menu items.
Once you have found the menu choice you want to select, double-tap the screen to select it.
For menu selections that require no further interaction (for example, defining the current word), the Accessibility
Reader automatically returns to Manual mode once the menu item’s action is complete.
