Now, let’s get started with a quick tour of your NOOK and its main
features.

Getting to Know Your NOOK

Your NOOK GlowLight 4 is an eReader with a touchscreen grayscale E
Ink® display and a front light now equipped with Night Mode.

On your NOOK, you can:

• Read books, magazines, and newspapers

• Shop from over four million titles

• Buy books, single issues of magazines and newspapers, as well as

subscriptions to magazines and newspapers

• Store hundreds of books, along with magazines, newspapers, and

personal files

• Sample books for free

• Explore books and articles through B&N Readouts™, Barnes & Noble’s
free digital discovery feature, refreshed daily
• Store and read files, including PDFs

Your NOOK is small enough to hold easily with one hand and to slip into a
bag or a purse. When you turn on the GlowLight® feature on your NOOK,
you can read your favorite books and periodicals even in the dark.

Power Button
The power button for your NOOK is located on the top edge. Press and hold
the button for 3 seconds to turn on your NOOK.

If your NOOK is sleeping, press the power button to wake up your NOOK
and turn it on.

To learn more about power management for your NOOK, see “Power and
Charging."

Touchscreen E Ink Display

Your NOOK features a high-resolution, 6-inch touchscreen E Ink display
for easy navigation and page turns.

NOTE: To ensure the highest quality of reading, your NOOK has an anti-
glare film already installed. Please do not install any additional screen
protector. To protect your NOOK’s screen from accidental damage, we
recommend using a NOOK cover.

NOOK Button
The NOOK symbol on the lower front of your NOOK is called the NOOK
button.

If your NOOK is sleeping, press the NOOK button to wake up your NOOK
and turn it on.

If your NOOK is already on, press this button to display the Home screen,
which features navigation controls and your recent reads.
If your NOOK is on, you can also press and hold the NOOK button for 2
seconds to turn on or off GlowLight, the light built into the frame of your
NOOK. When GlowLight is on, you can read your NOOK’s touchscreen E
Ink display even in areas with low lighting.

USB-C Port
Your NOOK features a USB-C port for charging and for connecting to a
personal computer. The USB-C port is located on the bottom edge of your
NOOK.

Page Turn Buttons

Page Turn Buttons are located to the left and right edge of the device. Press
either button to move forward/backward 1 page, or press and hold to
quickly scan through pages. A double tap of the page buttons can be used to
advance to the next chapter, or to go back to the beginning of the chapter
you are currently reading.
Getting Started
The first time you use your NOOK, you’ll need to go through a short set-up
process that will take about 5 to 10 minutes. Make sure that you’re in an
area that has a Wi-Fi® connection (a wireless connection to the Internet),
because part of the process is registering your NOOK with your Barnes &
Noble account on BN.com.

NOTE: You will not be able to set up your NOOK without a Wi-Fi
connection.

In the set-up process, you will do the following:

• Turn on your NOOK by pressing the power button on the left edge of
the device.

• Set the time zone.

• Connect to a Wi-Fi network.

• Accept the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.

• Register your NOOK to a Barnes & Noble account.

NOTE: If you don’t already have a Barnes & Noble account, you’ll have an
opportunity to create one during the registration step.

Barnes & Noble Account

A Barnes & Noble account allows you to purchase and download books,
magazines, and newspapers on your NOOK, and from the Barnes & Noble
website.

The account also allows you to synchronize your NOOK with any other
NOOK devices you have, such as other NOOK tablets or eReaders, and
with NOOK software apps, such as NOOK® for iOS, NOOK® for
Android™.

If you don’t have a Barnes & Noble account, you can set one up in a few
minutes on the NOOK website. Just open a browser on your computer, and
visit https://www.bn.com. You can also set up an account during the
registration process for your NOOK.

Your Barnes & Noble account is ready for use once you have set up the
following:

• An email address

• A default credit card number

• A valid expiration date for the credit card

• A current U.S. billing address

If you have any questions about setting up an account, please visit

NOOK.com/support, or .

Registering
NOTE: You will need to connect to a Wi-Fi network to complete your
registration.

1. Read the Welcome screen. Tap the Let’s Get Started button. Your
NOOK displays its Terms of Service.

2. Select your Time Zone by tapping its button. Tap Next.

3. Connect to a Wi-Fi network.

To register your NOOK and to purchase and download books and
periodicals, you need to be connected to a Wi-Fi network. If you’re
in a Barnes & Noble store, your NOOK will automatically connect
to the store’s free Wi-Fi network. If you’re in some other location
with Wi-Fi access, your NOOK will list all the networks it finds.
 Tap the name of the desired network. If you see a lock symbol
beside the network’s name, it is a secure network; you’ll need to
enter a password to connect to that network. If you do not know the
network password, ask the network administrator for help. If you
have problems connecting, visit NOOK.com/support for more
troubleshooting tips.

4. Once you have connected to a network, tap Next (if you are in a
Barnes & Noble store and connected to its network) or Continue (if
you are connected to any other Wi-Fi network).
Your NOOK displays a message saying it is registering your device.
When the registration has completed, your NOOK displays a Sign In
screen with an email field, a password field, and a keyboard at the
bottom of the screen.

5. Sign in to your BN.com account.

When you register your NOOK, you link it to your Barnes & Noble
account and give it access to all the books and periodicals in your
Barnes & Noble library. You also make it possible to shop for new
books and periodicals on your NOOK.

NOTE: By signing in, you agree to the Device Terms, Store Terms, and
Privacy Policy for our NOOK. Links to these terms appear at the bottom of
the screen.

If you already have a Barnes & Noble account, do this:

On the Sign In screen, enter the email address and password for your
Barnes & Noble account. (As a security precaution, if you enter your
password incorrectly five times, you will be locked out of your BN.com
account for half an hour. If you like, you can reset your account by visiting
BN.com.)

Tap the Sign In button below the password field.

When a dialog box appears, saying “Registration successful,” tap the OK
button.

If you do not already have a Barnes & Noble account:

 1. Tap the Create Account button. Your NOOK displays a form for
creating a Barnes & Noble account.

2. Enter the information requested, including your name, password,

credit card type, number, and expiration date, and a security
question.

3. Tap Submit.
Your NOOK creates your Barnes & Noble account and registers
your NOOK to your account.

NOTE: If you turned GlowLight on, it now automatically turns off.

4. Tap the Next button.

A new screen tells you that you’re ready to get started exploring the
features of your NOOK.

5. Tap the NOOK button (without holding it down) to display the

Home screen and begin exploring your NOOK.

You’re ready to read books, magazines, and newspapers, and to make

purchases in the NOOK Shop.

Power and Charging

Turning On Your NOOK

To turn on your NOOK, press the power button on the top edge of your
NOOK. Hold the button down for 5 seconds and release it.

Turning Off Your NOOK

To turn off your NOOK, do this:

• Press the power button and hold it down for 2 seconds. A window
appears, asking if you really want to turn your NOOK completely off.
 • Tap the Power off button in the dialog box. Your NOOK turns off.

NOTE: If you ignore the window asking you to confirm that you want to
power off your NOOK, after several seconds the window disappears, and
your NOOK resumes whatever it was doing before you pressed the power
button.

Charging Your NOOK

There are two ways to charge your NOOK. Using a USB-C cable, you can
plug it into your personal computer, or you can use a UL listed, approved
power adapter (rated from 5VDC, 1.0A).

CAUTION: If you are using a power adapter, use only a UL listed,

approved adapter and rated from 5VDC, 1.0A. Do not use a power adapter
or USB-C cable that has frayed or otherwise been damaged. When
connecting your NOOK to a personal computer, the computer must be a UL
listed, approved product.

ATTENTION : Si vous souhaitez charger votre liseuse, utilisez uniquement

un adaptateur secteur et cable USB-C de Barnes & Noble pour votre
NOOK. D’autres adaptateurs secteur pourraient endommager votre NOOK
et sa batterie. N’utilisez pas non plus des adaptateurs secteur et cables
conçus pour d’autres modèles NOOK. Assurez vous de n’utiliser que des
adaptateurs secteur et cables conçus uniquement pour votre modèle NOOK.
N’utilisez pas d’adaptateurs secteur ou cables USB-C qui ont été effilochés
ou autrement endommagés. Si vous connectez votre NOOK à un ordinateur,
ce dernier doit être certifié UL.

CAUTION: This product is intended to be supplied by a UL Listed,

approved adapter and rated from 5VDC, 1.0A.

ATTENTION: Cet appareil est conçu pour être alimenté par une source
d’alimentation directe certifiée UL de « Classe 2 » ou par une source
d’alimentation à puissance limitée (LPS) avec un courant de sortie de 5
VDC, 1.0 A
To charge your NOOK from your personal computer, do
this:
• Insert the large end of the USB cable into a USB port on your
personal computer.

• Plug the NOOK end of the USB cable into your NOOK. If your
NOOK was turned off, it will now turn itself on.

• Once your NOOK has fully charged, unplug the USB cable from
your NOOK.

NOTE: Depending on how much power remains in the battery, it might take
approximately 4 hours to fully re-charge your NOOK through a USB port.
Do not turn off your NOOK while it is charging.

Once your NOOK has enough power to turn on, you can see how much
power remains in the battery by checking the battery charge indicator in the
right corner of the Status Bar.

NOTE: Some personal computers must be turned on in order to charge

other devices through USB ports. When these computers are asleep or
turned off, their USB ports are inactive, and no charging takes place. If you
have connected your NOOK to your personal computer and the NOOK
does not seem to be charging, check your computer’s documentation to
determine what the requirements are for charging devices through USB
ports.

To charge your NOOK from a wall outlet with a power

adapter, do this:
• Assemble the power adapter and USB cable. Insert the large end of
the USB cable into the matching slot in the power adapter.

• Plug the small end of the USB cable into your NOOK.
 • Plug the power adapter into a compatible electrical outlet. If your
NOOK was turned off, it will now turn itself on.

• Once your NOOK has fully charged, unplug the power adapter from
the electrical outlet. Unplug the USB cable from your NOOK.

NOTE: Depending on how much power remains in the battery, it might take
approximately 3 hours to fully re-charge your NOOK through an electrical
outlet. Do not turn off your NOOK while it is charging.

Once your NOOK has enough power to turn on, you can see how much
power remains in the battery by checking the battery charge indicator in the
right corner of the Status Bar.

Resetting Your NOOK Performing a Soft Reset

If for some reason your NOOK becomes unresponsive, you can perform a
soft reset to restart the device.

• Press and hold the power button for 10 seconds, then release the
power button.

• Press the power button again for 2 seconds to turn on your NOOK.

Low Power
You can see how much power remains in your battery by checking the
battery icon in the Status Bar, or by checking the Battery indicator on the
Device Info settings screen. (To see the Device Info screen, tap Settings in
the NOOK Navigation Menu to open the main Settings screen, and then tap
Device Info.)

If you turn on your NOOK when its battery charge is almost depleted, a
warning appears on the screen, suggesting that you begin charging your
NOOK before trying to use it.
If the battery is depleted, your NOOK will shut down until it has been
sufficiently recharged.

Charging Recommendations
Your NOOK contains a rechargeable battery. To maximize battery life:

• Avoid fully discharging the battery. Charge your NOOK after several
hours of use or when you see the low charge alert, rather than
continuing to use it until it turns itself off.

• Avoid high temperatures for charging, use, and storage. For more
information, see “Temperature Ranges.”

• Charge the battery halfway before storing your NOOK for a week or
more.

Unlocking Your NOOK

When your NOOK has been idle, your NOOK goes to “sleep.” Your NOOK
displays a screensaver on the screen. It also locks the screen so that
accidental touches do not perform actions.

To wake up your NOOK, press the power button on the upper top edge of
your device. On the screensaver screen slide right to unlock your NOOK.
Safety and Care
Safety Information
This section explains important information about safety and about caring
for your NOOK.

Electricity
Your NOOK is an electrical device. Follow the same basic safety
procedures you would follow with any electrical device.

When charging your NOOK, use only the custom components included
with or sold for your NOOK: either a custom USB-C cable or a custom
USB-C cable along with a power adapter.

Airplanes
When using your NOOK on an airplane, be sure to follow the instructions
of the flight crew.

To turn your NOOK’s wireless networking on or off:

• Tap the right end of the Status Bar to open the Quick Settings dialog
box.

• Tap the Wi-Fi checkbox to turn wireless networking on or off.

• Tap anywhere outside the Quick Settings dialog box to close it.

Electronic Equipment
If you are around sensitive electronic equipment—for example, if you are in
a hospital—ask if you may use your NOOK. Settings such as intensive care
units might forbid the use of any electronic device, with or without
networking turned on.

Battery
Your NOOK includes a non-replaceable, rechargeable battery. Do not
attempt to replace the battery. If you suspect your battery is having
problems, please contact Customer Service at 1-800-THE-BOOK (1- 800-
843-2665).

Caring for your NOOK

To take the best possible care of your NOOK, please follow the
recommendations below.

Temperature Ranges
Your NOOK should function as designed in these temperature ranges:

• Operation: 0°C to 35°C, 32°F to 95°F

• Storage: -25° C to 60° C, -13° F to 140° F

Outside of these ranges, your NOOK might develop power, display, and/or
software issues. If temperatures are extremely cold or hot, permanent
physical damage can result. Such damage is not covered by the limited
warranty. Storage applies to temporary locations, like the trunk of your car
(or other motor vehicle), as well as long-term storage.

Even on a day that is not very hot, the passenger compartment or trunk of a
car can be extremely hot. Do not leave your NOOK in a car.

High storage temperatures reduce battery life. For more information, see
“Charging Recommendations."

Caring for the Screen

You should clean the screen on your NOOK from time to time. Clean the
screen with a damp soft cloth, such as a micro-fiber cloth. Do not use any
chemicals to clean the screen.

NOOK Covers
You can purchase an optional B&N cover for your NOOK at your local
Barnes & Noble Bookstore and online at BN.com. The cover helps protect
your NOOK from daily wear and tear. It keeps dust from accumulating on
the screen, reducing the need to clean it. The cover also provides some
protection against spills.

Limited Warranty Coverage and the B&N Protection Plan

Your NOOK is backed by a one-year manufacturer’s limited warranty
against defects in materials and workmanship. For a copy of this limited
warranty, see “One Year Limited Warranty.” The limited warranty is also
available at:

NOOK.com/warranty

In the event of any changes to the limited warranty, the version in effect on
the website at the time of purchase shall apply.

You can extend your NOOK’s coverage by purchasing a two-year B&N

Protection Plan to help safeguard NOOK against spills, drops, and other
accidents. The B&N Protection Plan can only be purchased together with a
NOOK.

Information about the B&N Protection Plan can be found on the web page
listed above.

NOTE: To ensure the highest quality of reading, your NOOK has an anti-
glare film already installed. Please don’t use any additional screen protector
as it will damage the device. To protect your NOOK’s screen from
accidental damage, we recommend using a NOOK cover. Your limited
warranty does not cover damage to your NOOK’s screen resulting from use
of an additional screen protector.
Using NOOK Gestures
Your NOOK puts great reading material right at your fingertips. To read that
content, to rate it, and so on, you’ll use your fingers in different ways.

Tap
A tap on the screen is a quick touch of your fingertip. It’s the same gesture
you use when you tap a key on a computer keyboard.

Double Tap
Tapping twice quickly on the screen is a useful shortcut for many features.

In the Library or the Shop, double-tapping the cover of a book or periodical

opens a window with details about the item.

Press and Hold

Pressing and holding means touching your finger to the screen and holding
it there for 2 seconds.

In many situations, pressing and holding causes your NOOK to open a

menu at the bottom of the screen. The menu offers you choices about the
image your finger is resting on.

For example, if you press and hold on a word in a book, your NOOK opens
a menu offering you choices of things you can do with that book: highlight
the word, write a note, look up the word in a dictionary, and so on.

Swipe
To swipe is to slide your finger across the screen, usually to the left or right.
You can swipe to turn pages in a book you are reading.

Scroll
Slide your finger up or down the screen to scroll through any list displaying
up and down arrows at the bottom of the screen. A scroll gesture is like a
vertical swipe.
Navigation Buttons

The NOOK Navigation Buttons, or Nav Buttons, are a row of buttons at the
bottom of the Home screen that make it easy to move from one area of your
NOOK to another. For example, if you want to move from the Library to
the Shop, you can simply tap the NOOK Home button to display the Home
screen and tap the Shop button to display the Shop screen.

To open the NOOK Navigation Menu, tap the NOOK button on the front
bezel of your NOOK. The Navigation Menu appears on the bottom of the
Home screen.
The Status Bar
A Status Bar runs along the top of the NOOK touchscreen as shown above.

The Status Bar appears on the Home Screen, the Library, the Shop, the
Search screen, and on Settings screens. A slightly different version appears
in books or periodicals when you open the Reading Tools.

The Left Side of the Status Bar

The left side of the Status Bar presents a profile icon to manage the NOOK
Profiles associated to your NOOK Account. Read the chapter “Configuring
Profiles” for more information.

The Center of the Status Bar

The center of the status bar presents:

• A digital clock showing the current time

By default, the NOOK status bar displays time on a 12-hour clock. To

change the time or to switch to a 24-hour clock, set the 24-hour clock
option on the Time Settings screen.

The Right Side of the Status Bar

The right side of the status bar presents:

• A lightbulb icon that indicates whether GlowLight is turned on or off

 If GlowLight is on, an icon representing an illuminated lightbulb icon
appears in the Status Bar. If GlowLight is turned off, an icon
representing a crossed-out lightbulb appears instead.

• A wireless connection indicator

The wireless connection indicator displays a stack of concentric

curves, indicating the strength of your NOOK’s connection to a local
Wi-Fi network. The higher the stack of curves, the stronger the
connection. In general, it’s best to have at least 2 or 3 curves showing
to have a reliable connection. If no curves are shown, the NOOK is
not connected to a network.

• A battery charge indicator

GlowLight
Your NOOK includes GlowLight, a built-in light that enables you to read
even in dim lighting conditions.

Turning GlowLight On or Off and Adjusting Its

Brightness
You can also turn GlowLight on or off in the Quick Settings window. (Tap
the status bar in the upper right corner to open Quick Settings.)

On the Home screen, in the Library, in the Shop, on the Search screen, or in
Settings, tap the lightbulb icon or Wi-Fi symbol in the Status Bar.

Your NOOK opens the Quick Settings window. Change the GlowLight
setting as you like.

• If GlowLight is off, swipe the GlowLight slider to turn GlowLight

on. Slide the circle on the slider to make GlowLight bright or
 dimmer.

• If GlowLight is on, swipe the GlowLight slider all the way to the left
to turn GlowLight off.

To close the Quick Settings window, tap anywhere outside the window.

Night Mode
Your NOOK GlowLight 4 comes with Night Mode for comfortable reading.
With Night mode on, you can adjust the color of the light from cool to
warm. A warmer tone will reduce blue light emission for nighttime reading.

You can set Night Mode in Auto mode or in Manual mode. In Auto mode,
GlowLight will automatically adjust the color throughout the day. In
manual mode, you can select the color you want on a slider.

NOTE: Brightness and color are two separate controls.

Turning Night Mode On or Off

Open Quick Settings and tap the checkbox on the right of Night Mode. The
Night Mode will come up and default to your preferred mode (Auto or
Manual).

You can also check the GlowLight setting in the full settings menu.

Using the Auto Mode

Open the Quick Settings and tap See All Settings. Open GlowLight and
select Auto. When brightness is on, your NOOK will automatically adjust
the color throughout the day.

NOTE: Night Mode will be on when brightness is on. If brightness is off,

Night Mode controls will be disabled. Simply turn brightness on from
Quick Settings, All Settings, or by pressing and holding the Home button
for 2 seconds.
Using the Manual Mode
Open Quick Settings and tap All Settings. Open GlowLight and select
Manual. The slider will open for you to select a cooler or warmer tone. The
same slider is also accessible from Quick Settings.

NOTE: Night Mode will be on when brightness is on. If brightness is off,

Night Mode controls will be disabled. Simply turn brightness on from
Quick Settings, All Settings, or by pressing and holding the Home button
for 2 seconds.
Home Screen
The Home screen gives you easy access to the books and periodicals you
have recently read or purchased.

In the top portion of the screen, you’ll see the covers of the most recent
books or periodicals you’ve been reading.

The New & Recent Shelf

At the top of the Home screen, the New & Recent panel shows the covers
of the books or periodicals you have most recently purchased or were most
recently reading. If you have not read a book or periodical yet, the New &
Recent panel shows the cover of the NOOK User Guide or NOOK Quick
Guide. These two guides are automatically included in your Library.

To open any book or periodical shown in the New & Recent panel, tap its
cover.

The Recommended for You Shelf

At the bottom of the screen, you’ll see a shelf with book recommendations
for you. The recommendations are based on your recent purchases.

To learn more about a particular book or periodical, tap the cover. Your
NOOK opens a detailed description of the book, including an overview, a
list of reviews, a list of related titles, and a button for purchasing the book
or periodical. The details page of a book might also include a button for
downloading a free sample.

The picture below shows an example of a details page about a

recommended book.

Returning to the Home Screen

You can return to the Home screen at any time by pressing the NOOK
button on the lower front of your NOOK.
Reading Books on Your NOOK
You can read books, comics, magazines, and newspapers on your NOOK.
You can make notes about what you’re reading, highlight and annotate
favorite passages.

Your NOOK makes reading books fun. To start reading, simply tap a book’s
cover. The book opens and fills the page. Then you can use the features
described in this section to get the most out of your reading experience.

While you’re reading, you can customize the look of the page. You can
switch fonts, make type bigger or smaller, and adjust line spacing and
margins. You can switch between page designs whenever you like.

Opening a Book
To open a book, tap the cover. Or if you’re displaying a list of titles in the
Library, tap the book’s title.

NOTE: The first time you open a book on your NOOK, you will be
presented with a brief tutorial on using gestures to turn pages and to open
reading tools.

Page Layout
When you're reading content on NOOK, the text fills most of the page. Page
numbers appear at the bottom of the screen.

The title of the book you’re reading appears in the upper left when you first
open a book.

Turning Pages

Next Page
To turn to the next page, either:

• Tap anywhere along the right edge of the page. Swipe to the left. (To
swipe left, you place your finger on the right side of the page and
slide it quickly to the left, as though you were flipping the page of a
printed book.)

• Tap either of the upper page-turn keys built into the frame of your
NOOK.

NOTE: On the Reader settings screen, you can control whether the upper or
the lower page-turn key turns the page forward. See “Configuring
Navigation Buttons in the Reader."

To move forward quickly through the book, press and hold the page-turn
key that turns pages forward.

BN.com) account password be entered every time anyone makes a
purchase on your NOOK, a dialog box opens. Tap in the Password
field and enter the password for your account. Tap OK.

credit card will be charged automatically at the rate of the subscription
schedule you selected (annual or monthly). Your subscription will also
automatically renew on the schedule you selected. You are only eligible for
one free trial for each newspaper and magazine.

What Happens When You Buy an Item in the Shop?

When you buy a book, magazine, or newspaper on your NOOK, it begins

Erase & Deregister Device

The Erase & Deregister feature erases your NOOK (or BN.com) account
information from your NOOK and resets the NOOK to its default factory
settings. Deregistration unlinks your NOOK from your NOOK (or BN.com)
account.

Erasing and deregistering your NOOK does not delete any of the books,
magazines, and newspapers from your NOOK (or BN.com) account. Your
reading material, while no longer available on your NOOK, is still available
for downloading and for reading with NOOK applications. Visit nook.com
for more information.

In addition, you can re-register your NOOK by following the same steps
you used when you first set up your NOOK. Once you have registered, your
complete Library is once again available on your NOOK.

Erasing and deregistering does delete any files you have transferred to your
NOOK from your personal computer. Be sure to back up these files before
erasing and deregistering if you want to have access to them after
deregistering your NOOK.

NOTE: Be very cautious using this feature unless specifically instructed by

Barnes & Noble’s Customer Support.

NOTE: You must be connected to a Wi-Fi network to deregister your

NOOK. To erase and deregister your NOOK:

1. Tap the Erase & Deregister Device menu choice on the Device Info
screen. Your NOOK displays a page for erasing and deregistering
your device.

2. Tap the button labeled Erase & Deregister Device. A dialog box
appears, asking you to confirm that you want to reset your NOOK.

message saying it is deregistering itself. Once your NOOK has
deregistered itself, it displays a message saying that it is clearing
data. Once data has been cleared off the device, your NOOK reboots
itself.

To re-register with your existing account, or to register with a new account,

follow the instructions for getting started.
Account Screen

Configuring Profiles
A NOOK Profile tailors content and shopping experiences on your NOOK
for an individual user. Your NOOK supports up to six NOOK profiles,
enabling different people to use your NOOK in different ways.

All the purchases made on your NOOK through any profile are processed
through the NOOK or BN.com account to which your NOOK is registered.

Types of Profiles
Your NOOK supports three types of NOOK Profiles:
 1. Primary Profile – This is the profile created by default when you
register your NOOK. This profile can view all the content on the
device and it can also create and edit profiles for other users and
manage those profiles’ access to content. All purchases made on the
NOOK are processed using the payment method associated with this
profile.

2. Adult Profile – An adult profile can purchase any type of content.

An adult profile can also control which content is visible to itself
and which content is visible to any child profile. It can also set
parental controls for child profiles. It cannot control which content is
visible to the primary profile.

3. Child Profile – By default, a child profile can only view and

purchase content authorized by the primary profile or through
parental controls configured by an adult profile. A child profile does
not have the ability to create or edit other profiles. It cannot override
parental controls.

Setting Up an Adult Profile

Your NOOK will recognize any new profiles you create, along with any
profiles you created in your Barnes & Noble or NOOK account on other
NOOK Devices.

1. From the Account screen, tap Add New Profile. Located below the
CHANGE PROFILE button.

2. Type a first name for the account.

3. If you wish for this to be a Child Profile. Tap the checkbox labeled
Child Profile.

4. If you want to automatically add all the NOOK content in the

primary profile’s account to this profile, tap the checkbox labeled
Add all NOOK shop content in this account to this new profile’s
library.
 5. Tap ADD in the upper right corner of the screen. Your NOOK will
then create the profile.

NOTE: If you chose not to automatically add all the NOOK content
in the primary profile’s account to this profile’s library, you will
need to add content to the library, item by item. See the instructions
below on managing content.

Setting up a Child Profile

On the main Settings screen, tap the Profile menu choice. Your NOOK
displays the Profile settings screen.

1. Type a first name for the account.

2. Tap the checkbox for a Child Profile. Your NOOK opens a form for
specifying the age of the child.

3. Tap the Age field. A dialog box opens, allowing you to specify the
month and year in which your child was born. This information
helps your NOOK find age-appropriate content for your child.

4. Scroll the month and year fields to select the month and year your
child was born. Tap Done. A message appears, pointing out the link
to the Barnes & Noble Privacy Policy. Tap the Privacy Policy link if
you would like to review it.

5. Tap the checkbox indicating that you accept the Device Terms,
Store Terms, and Privacy Policy.

NOTE: If you do not accept these terms and the Privacy Policy, you
will not be able to finish creating a child profile.

6. Tap NEXT in the upper right corner of the screen. Your NOOK
displays this message about the legal requirements of creating a
child profile. Barnes & Noble will charge the primary profile’s
BN.com account one penny as part of this process and in return add
a children’s book to the library.
 7. To continue creating a child profile, tap Continue at the bottom of
the screen. Your NOOK displays a screen for specifying the parental
controls for this profile.

8. Adjust the controls as you like.

9. Tap Done. Your NOOK creates the child profile with the
permissions you specified. If you have not specified a four-digit
passcode or PIN to protect the privacy of your NOOK, you will be
asked to do so after you create your first child profile. Assigning a
passcode prevents a child from accessing content in any adult
profile, including the primary profile.

Overview of Parental Controls

Simple-to-use parental controls help create a “kid-safe” experience on your

NOOK. Using parental controls, you can limit the types of content that
child profiles can view and purchase. You set up parental controls when you
create a child profile. You can adjust them later if you like by editing the
child profile.

Using parental controls, you can control whether or not a specific child
profile can:

• Browse the NOOK Shop

• Purchase from NOOK Shop only when using your NOOK account
password

• Shop only for kids’ content in the NOOK Shop

• View Sideloaded Files in NOOK Library

NOTE: Sideloaded files are any EPUB files or PDFs you transfer to
your NOOK from your personal computer, using the USB-C cable
included with your NOOK.

• Access Reads for kids

Switching Between Profiles

1. On the main Settings page, tap Profile. The Profile settings screen
lists all the profiles available on your NOOK.

2. Tap the round button by the name of the profile you want to select.

NOTE: If a child profile is switching to an adult profile and that

adult profile has been configured with a passcode, you will be
prompted to enter the main profile passcode.

3. If you are prompted, enter the main profile passcode.

Managing Content for a Profile Sharing Content

The same content can be shared by multiple profiles. Each profile will need
to download the content independently to access it.
For example, if the primary profile owns a particular NOOK Book and
grants another profile access to it, the book will appear in the other profile’s
Library with a download icon, indicating that the book is available for
download. To read the book, the other profile simply has to touch its cover
to download it to the profile’s storage area on your NOOK.

Annotations, such as notes and highlights, are specific to a profile. If one

profile makes notes and highlights in a book, they will not be visible to
other profiles reading the same book.

Similarly, if two profiles own the same book, their reading positions in the
book are tracked independently. If one profile reads to page 17 and the other
profile reads to page 25, each profile will be taken to his or her most
recently read page when the book is reopened. The first profile will be
returned to page 17; the second profile to page 25.

Assigning Content to Other Profiles

The primary profile can assign content to adult profiles and child profiles.
An adult profile can assign content to child profiles.

3. Tap the More icon next to the profile whose content you want to
manage.

4. Tap Manage Content.

5. Your NOOK opens a view of the Library in which each item has a
checkbox on its cover. If a checkbox is checked, the profile has
permission to access that item.

6. Use checkboxes to grant or rescind permission to books and

periodicals.

NOTE: Change the ALL TYPES by MOST RECENT filters to find

content quicker.

In addition to connecting to your Wi-Fi network in your home or office, you
can use your NOOK to connect to public Wi-Fi hot spots in stores,
restaurants, hotels, cafes, airports, and many other locations.

This section summarizes how your NOOK works with various types of Wi-
Fi hotspots.

Wi-Fi Networks in Barnes & Noble Stores

Your NOOK will automatically detect a Wi-Fi network in a Barnes & Noble
store and ask if you want to connect to it. In-store Wi-Fi connections for
NOOK devices are free and include exclusive features such as Read In
Store and More In Store. For more information, see “Using Your NOOK in
a Barnes & Noble Store."

AT&T Wi-Fi Hotspots

Your NOOK will also automatically detect any AT&T Wi-Fi hotspot and
ask if you want to connect to it. Access to AT&T Wi-Fi hotspots in the U.S.
is free for NOOK GlowLight 4 devices.

Unsecured Wi-Fi Networks

Your NOOK will detect unsecured Wi-Fi networks close by. An unsecured
Wi-Fi network does not require users to enter a password in order to
establish a connection. You can simply select the network and connect to it.

Secured Wi-Fi Networks

Your NOOK will also detect secured Wi-Fi networks. A secured Wi-Fi
network requires users to enter a password before they can connect to the
network.
There are several different security protocols available for securing
networks. Your NOOK recognizes and supports the most popular Wi-Fi
security protocols, including:

WEP WPA/WPA2 PSK 802.1x EAP

To connect to a secured Wi-Fi network, select it from a list of networks and

enter its password when prompted.

NOTE: If you do not know the password for the network, ask the network
administrator for help.

NOTE: If your NOOK will display dialog boxes that let you type a network
and enter a password.

Proxied Wi-Fi Networks

Proxied Wi-Fi networks typically present a Web page with terms and
conditions, a login screen, and possibly a payment screen, before allowing
you to connect to the network. You’ll encounter this type of network in
many hotels, restaurants, and airports. Your NOOK detects these networks.

When selecting a proxied network as a connection, your NOOK usually

opens a dialog box in which you can read and accept terms and conditions,
perhaps enter credit card information and login credentials, and connect.
However, this behavior may vary from network to network.
Updating the Software on Your NOOK
From time to time, Barnes & Noble will release software updates for your
NOOK. Your NOOK will automatically install these updates.

NOTE: Updating software does not delete any of your books, magazines, or
newspapers, nor does it delete any of the files you have transferred onto
your NOOK from your personal computer. The software update simply
installs new NOOK software to give you the latest features available from
Barnes & Noble. Your NOOK remains registered to your Barnes & Noble
account, and all your reading material remains accessible.

Installing a Software Update over a Wireless Network

When a new software update is available, your NOOK will download it and
install it sometime over the course of a couple of weeks after Barnes &
Noble releases the update, and while your registered NOOK device is idle
and connected to a Wi-Fi hotspot. There is nothing else that you need to do
to receive these automatic software updates.

Software installations take only a few minutes. Updating your software

doesn’t affect the contents of your Library or the titles listed in your Keep
Reading list. Once the software installation is complete, you can continue
reading or shopping or doing whatever else you were doing before the new
software was installed.

You check for the availability of a new release by tapping the Check for
System Update button on the Software settings screen, which is described
below.

Discovering the Version Number of Your NOOK Software

1. Tap Settings in the NOOK Navigation menu to open the main
Settings screen.
 2. Scroll to the bottom of the screen and tap Software. Your NOOK
opens the Software settings screen, which lists the version number
of the software release your NOOK is running.

Checking for the Availability of a New Software Update

NOTE: You must be connected to a Wi-Fi network to check for a new
software update and to install that update on your NOOK.

1. Open the Software settings screen, as described above.

2. Tap the Check for System Update button.

Your NOOK checks for the availability of a new software update. If one is
available, it begins downloading the update. Your NOOK automatically
installs the update after your device next goes to sleep.
Tips and Troubleshooting
My NOOK is sluggish or unresponsive.
Like any computer or electronic equipment, your NOOK periodically needs
to be completely powered off (not just put in Sleep Mode) to allow it to
reset.

To power off your NOOK, press and hold the power button for 10 seconds.
At that point, the device should be turned off. Wait a few seconds, and then
press and hold the power button for about 2 seconds to turn your NOOK
back on.

I want to change my BN.com account password. What

should I do?
Before you change your password on BN.com, first deregister your NOOK,
so your NOOK isn’t configured to use a password that you have made
obsolete.

NOTE: You must be connected to a Wi-Fi network to de-register your

NOOK.

NOTE: De-registering your device will delete any content you have side-
loaded on your NOOK. You might want to make sure you have copies of
this content on your personal computer. You do not need to back up the
books, magazines, and newspapers you have purchased through the NOOK
Shop. These items will be restored to your NOOK automatically when you
re-register it, using your new password.

Deregistering Your NOOK:

1. Tap Settings in the NOOK Navigation menu to open the main
Settings screen.
 2. Tap Device Info.

3. Tap the Erase & Deregister Device menu choice.

4. On the Erase & Deregister Device screen, tap the Erase &
Deregister Device button. A dialog box appears, asking you to
confirm that you want to reset your NOOK.

5. Tap the Reset NOOK button. Your NOOK deregisters itself,

restoring factory default settings.

Changing Your Password

Once you have deregistered your NOOK, log in to BN.com and change
your password.

Once you have changed your password on BN.com, register your NOOK,
following the registration instructions you followed when you first set up
your NOOK. See “Registering Your NOOK” at the beginning of this guide.

When you need to enter your BN.com account login information, be sure to
enter your new password.

The screen is acting as though I’m tapping it, even though

I am not.
If your screen is dirty, it might detect touches when none are occurring.
This problem can occur on any touchscreen device. Turn off your NOOK,
and wipe the screen clean with a soft, dry cloth. Pay particular attention to
clear out or gently blow out any dust or dirt from the small lip around the
edges of the display. Then turn your NOOK back on.

I transferred a ZIP archive from my personal computer.

Why can’t I access the files?
Unzip files on your personal computer before transferring them to your
NOOK. Your NOOK can read EPUB files and PDFs, but not .zip files.
Appendix A: Page Numbering and File
Formats
When you read a book or periodical on your NOOK, you’re reading the
same words that appear in the paper edition of the book or periodical. In
most books, the page number that appears at the bottom of the screen is the
page number you would see if you were reading the printed version of the
same book.

Because printed pages can be larger than the screen of your NOOK, and
because many printed books use type that is smaller than would be pleasant
to read on an eReader, your NOOK may enlarge the type on a page and
spread a physical page of text across two or more digital pages.

Because digital pages might be smaller than the physical pages of a book,
you might turn the page a few times on your NOOK and still see the same
physical page number in the upper righthand corner. For example, you
might find three screens of text in your book all labeled page 47.

The relation between digital pages and physical pages can vary because
your NOOK gives you a great deal of freedom in choosing the size of fonts,
the amount of spacing between lines, and other factors that affect how text
flows onto a page.

In most books, you’ll always know which physical page you’re on from the
number shown when you tap the bottom of the screen to view your reading
progress. So if you’re discussing a book in a book club, everyone can refer
to page 295 and be talking about the same page, even if you’ve configured
your NOOK to use small type and single-spacing and everyone else in the
group is using large type and double-spacing.

Page Numbering and File Formats

There are several different formats for eBooks, and these different formats
treat page numbers differently. Barnes & Noble eBooks are published in the
EPUB format, but you can load other types of documents, such as PDFs,
onto your NOOK.

Here’s a quick summary of what you need to know about

file formats and page numbering:

eBooks and Periodicals in EPUB format

EPUB is the standard format for books in the Barnes & Noble online store.
The EPUB format numbers all pages in a book sequentially, based on some
prior account of page numbering, such as the page numbering used in the
print edition. If the print edition of the book had 525 pages, so will the
eBook. But the pages are re-flowed in the eBook edition to make them
easier to view on a screen. As a result, a page from the print edition might
be larger or smaller than a page in the eBook.

In many cases, a page from the print edition will span two or more pages on
an eReader, as described above.

Reflowable eBooks in PDF Format

In reflowable eBooks formatted in PDF, page numbering is for the entire
book and reflects some prior account of page numbering, before formatting
for the eBook text size. The behavior is the same as for eBooks in EPUB
format, which is described above.

Non-reflowable eBooks in PDF format

Page numbering is for the entire book and reflects the number of scanned
pages. Page numbers also might be on the scanned pages, but there is no
necessary relationship. Page 6 in the eBook might have the scanned page
number iv, and page 30 in the eBook might have the scanned page number
5.
Appendix B: International Use and
Languages
This chapter summarizes information about using your NOOK outside of
the United States and explains your NOOK’s support of languages.

Using Your NOOK Abroad

Your NOOK is designed for use in the United States and United States

NOOK, for example in the Library, is variable.
Appendix C: One-Year Limited Warranty
THE FOLLOWING WARRANTY TERMS WERE IN EFFECT AS OF
THE DATE YOUR DEVICE WAS MANUFACTURED, AND ARE
PROVIDED FOR YOUR REFERENCE ONLY. THE ACTUAL TERMS
OF YOUR WARRANTY ARE THE TERMS THAT WERE IN EFFECT
AS OF THE DATE OF YOUR PURCHASE, WHICH MAY BE
DIFFERENT THAN THE TERMS SET FORTH HEREIN. TO FIND THE
EXACT TERMS OF YOUR WARRANTY, PLEASE GO TO
NOOK.com/warranty AND REVIEW THE TERMS APPLICABLE AS OF
THE DATE OF YOUR PURCHASE.

ONE-YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY

This Limited Warranty provides for specific legal rights with respect to your
NOOK® device. Please review it carefully. You may also have other rights,
which vary from state to state.

What warranties apply to my NOOK? What is Covered?

This Limited Warranty covers your NOOK. For purposes of this Limited
Warranty, “NOOK” means only the hardware comprising: (i) your NOOK
device; and (ii) the peripherals included in the packaging with your NOOK
device.

Express Warranty
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Limited Warranty,
barnesandnoble.com llc (“B&N”) warrants to the original retail purchaser
only (“you”) that your NOOK will be free from defects in materials and
workmanship under normal consumer use for a period of one (1) year from
the date of original retail purchase (the “Warranty Period”). This express
warranty is not transferable to subsequent owners of the product. If your
NOOK was originally purchased by someone else as a gift for you, as
shown by a gift receipt, you will be considered the “original retail
purchaser” of that NOOK.

Implied Warranty
You may also have implied warranties under the laws of some jurisdictions.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, such implied warranties are
limited to the duration of the Warranty Period. Some jurisdictions do not
allow limitations on the duration of an implied warranty, so this limitation
may not apply to you. You may not assign or otherwise transfer such
implied warranties. However, some jurisdictions extend the protection of
implied warranties to subsequent consumers, so this limitation may not
apply to you.

How do I make a warranty claim or otherwise arrange for

the return of my NOOK?
To make a warranty claim or arrange for the return of your NOOK pursuant
to the NOOK TERMS OF SERVICE, you must contact B&N at one of the
following numbers during the Warranty Period:

• Within the United States: 1-800-THE-BOOK (843-2665)

How do I return my NOOK to B&N?

When you contact B&N at one of the numbers above, B&N will provide
instructions to you as to how and where to return your NOOK. Your NOOK
must be shipped, prepaid, and insured, in appropriate protective packaging,
together with proof of purchase and the Return Authorization Number
provided by B&N, to the address specified by B&N. You must return your
NOOK within the timeframe provided by B&N. You may also be required
to provide a credit card to obtain an advance replacement before B&N
receives your NOOK at its returns center.
All returned NOOKs become the property of B&N.

Before you send your NOOK to B&N, it is your responsibility to back up

any data, software or files stored on your NOOK because B&N will only
return your NOOK to you if it is not covered by this Limited Warranty and
B&N has not provided an advance replacement. B&N is not responsible for
any loss of your data, software, or files or for the cost of backing up your
data, software, or files.

If you do not comply with the terms above or with B&N’s instructions,
there may be delays in service or you may incur additional expenses. In
particular, if you do not return your NOOK within the timeframe specified
by B&N, B&N reserves the right to charge you the purchase price for a
replacement NOOK. You will be solely responsible for any cost, expense,
loss or the like relating to your failure to comply with such terms or B&N’s
instructions.

B&N DOES NOT PROVIDE, AND HEREBY DISCLAIMS, ANY

EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES REGARDING ITS
WARRANTY SERVICES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ALL
DUTIES (IF ANY) OF WORKMANLIKE EFFORT AND OF
REASONABLE CARE.

If I make a warranty claim, what will B&N do when it

receives my NOOK?
When B&N receives your NOOK, it will examine it and determine whether
it is covered by this Limited Warranty. If, upon examination, B&N
determines that your NOOK is covered by this Limited Warranty, B&N
will, within a reasonable period of time, at B&N’s option and in its sole
discretion, and at no additional charge, do one of the following:

Replace your NOOK with a new or refurbished model; or refund the

purchase price you paid for your NOOK.

If B&N replaces your NOOK, B&N will bear the cost of sending a
replacement NOOK to you, freight prepaid.
THE FOREGOING IS YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR
BREACH OF WARRANTY OR FOR ANY OTHER CLAIMS
OTHERWISE RELATING TO THIS LIMITED WARRANTY.

What will be the warranty period if my NOOK is

replaced?
If your NOOK is replaced during the Warranty Period, it will be covered by
this Limited Warranty for the remainder of the original Warranty Period or
ninety (90) days from the date of shipment of the replaced NOOK,
whichever is longer.

What if my NOOK is not covered by this limited warranty?

If your NOOK is not covered by this Limited Warranty, B&N will return
your NOOK to you, at your expense, or will charge your credit card for any
advance replacement NOOK provided to you.

What is not covered by the warranty?

This Limited Warranty does not cover damage or malfunctions caused by
accident, disaster, misuse (including any use in a manner contrary to the
instructions contained in any user guide or on the packaging of the device),
abuse, negligence, or other external causes; third-party products; Internet or
telecommunications failures; commercial use; unauthorized opening, use,

apply to NOOKs sold as used, refurbished, or reconditioned, except to the
extent that such NOOK is a certified pre-owned NOOK that was purchased
directly from B&N or from a B&N authorized reseller of certified pre-
owned NOOKs. This Limited Warranty will be void if the Serial Number
on your NOOK has been removed, tampered with, or defaced or if your
NOOK has been opened or serviced without authorization, tampered with,
altered, or modified. Please note that opening the back cover of your NOOK
to change the battery, external SD card, or back cover will void this Limited
Warranty, except to the extent that such opening is done through a
customer-accessible opening and in accordance with the instructions
provided with the NOOK.

This Limited Warranty applies to your NOOK only (i.e., the hardware), and
not to the software within your NOOK. Please refer to the NOOK TERMS
OF SERVICE for your rights and remedies with respect to such software.

Similarly, this Limited Warranty does not cover downloaded data or

materials, or accessories and peripherals, except as expressly provided
above.

What other legal terms apply to this limited warranty?

BY APPLICABLE LAW, B&N SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY AND
ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS NOT EXPRESSLY
PROVIDED FOR IN THIS LIMITED WARRANTY, INCLUDING,
WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY,
NON-INFRINGEMENT, SECURITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE AND AGAINST HIDDEN OR LATENT DEFECTS.

Modification
No employee or representative of B&N or its affiliates or any third party is
authorized to make any modification, extension, or addition to this Limited
Warranty. If any term of this Limited Warranty is held to be illegal or

YOUR PURCHASE OR USE OF YOUR NOOK, INCLUDING,
WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUE OR LOST
DATA, REGARDLESS OF THE CAUSE OF ACTION ON WHICH THE
CLAIM IS BASED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
NEGLIGENCE, TORT, CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, PRODUCT
DEFECT OR MISREPRESENTATION, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES OCCURRING, AND EVEN IF
ANY REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or

consequential damages, so the above exclusion may not apply to you.

Applicable Law
This Limited Warranty is valid only in the United States of America. The

billed according to the terms and conditions of the Membership Agreement.
Subscription customers’ charges will appear monthly on the AT&T portion
of your AT&T local telephone bill. The Service is provided on a month-to-
month basis and the monthly charges are subject to change. Payment for the
Service is due on the date specified on the AT&T local telephone bill. If any
portion of payment is received after the payment due date, a monthly late
charge may apply. The monthly late charge will be ad-ministered according
to standard AT&T billing procedures and will not exceed the highest
amount allowed by law. The late charge will be applied to the entire
outstanding balance for each month or portion thereof for which the balance
remains unpaid. In the event you fail to pay charges, AT&T may suspend or
terminate your Service and may assign unpaid late balances to a collection
agency for appropriate action. In the event legal action is necessary to
collect on balances due, you agree to reimburse AT&T for all expenses
incurred to recover sums due, including attorneys ’fees and other legal
expenses. You also agree to pay all current charges for the Service as well
as taxes and fees assessed against you or AT&T on the charges and all late
payment, interest or other fees as stated on your bill. You will also be
charged a fee for any check returned to AT&T relating to the Service.
AT&T may modify its billing practices or late payment charges by
providing you with prior written notice of the modification.

Service Suspension/Termination/Cancellation
AT&T respects freedom of expression and believes it is a foundation of our
free society to express differing points of view. AT&T will not terminate,
disconnect, or suspend service because of the views you or we express on
public policy matters, political issues or political campaigns. However,
AT&T may immediately terminate or suspend all or a portion of your
Service, without notice, for conduct that AT&T believes (a) violates the
Acceptable Use Policy, set forth below; or (b) constitutes a violation of any
law, regulation, or tariff (including, without limitation, copyright and
intellectual property laws) or a violation of these Terms, or any applicable
policies or guidelines. Your Service may be suspended or terminated if your
payment is past due and such condition continues unremedied for thirty (30)
days. Termination or suspension by AT&T of Service also constitutes
termination or suspension (as applicable) of your license to use any
Software. AT&T may also terminate or suspend your Service if you provide
false or inaccurate information that is required for the pro- vision of Service
or is necessary to allow AT&T to bill you for Service. Membership
customers: customer cancellation of Services is governed by the terms and
conditions of your Membership Agreement. Subscription customers: you
may cancel your subscription to the Service at any time by contacting
AT&T. If canceled after the first month, subscription charges will be
prorated to the date the Service is cancelled. If you disconnect your DSL or
Dial Internet access services, your subscription to the Service will also
automatically cancel.

Modifications to the Service/Updates to the Terms

AT&T reserves the right to modify or discontinue, temporarily or
permanently, at any time and from time to time, the Service (or any function
or feature of the Service or any part thereof, including but not limited to
rates and charges) with or without notice. You agree that AT&T will not be
liable to you or to any third party for any such modification, suspension or
discontinuance of the Service. Without limiting the foregoing, AT&T may
post, or email, notices of changes in the Service. It is your responsibility to
check our website and your AT&T email address for any such notices. You
agree that AT&T will not be liable to you or to any third party for any such
modification, suspension or discontinuance of the Service.

These Terms may be updated or changed from time to time. The current
Terms shall be posted at: (“Website”). If AT&T makes a change to these
Terms and that change has a material impact on the Service, you will be
provided electronic notice of that change via e-mail or other written notice.
Your continued use of the Service following such notice constitutes your
acceptance of those changes. If you do not agree to the revisions, you must
terminate your Service immediately.

Operational Limits of the Service

Provisioning of the Service is subject to the availability and the operational
limitations of the requisite equipment and associated facilities. You
understand and agree that temporary interruptions of the Service may occur
as normal events in the provision of the Service and that AT&T will not be

has no control over third party networks you may access in the course of
your use of the Service, and therefore, delays and disruptions of other

beyond AT&T’s reasonable control, including acts of God, fire, explosion,
vandalism, nuclear disaster, terrorism, cable cut, storm, or other similar
occurrence, any law, order or regulation by any government, civil, or
military authority, national emergencies, insurrections, riots, wars, labor
difficulties, supplier failures, shortages, breaches, or delays, or delays
caused by you or your equipment.

ACCEPTABLE USE POLICY
The AT&T Acceptable Use Policy is designed to help protect AT&T’s
assets, the assets of its Customers, and the Internet community, from
irresponsible or illegal activities of AT&T Customers and its Users. These
activities may disrupt or degrade AT&T IP Services, pose a threat to
AT&T’s assets, expose AT&T (or other providers of IP Services) to claims
of civil or criminal liability or other legal sanctions. Moreover, because of
various conventions used in the industry (including blocking, filtering, and
blacklisting) these activities may impair AT&T’s ability to interconnect
with other providers of IP Service. These activities may relate to the content
stored or transmitted by Customers or its Users or to the nature of the
transmissions themselves such as sending large numbers of unsolicited
messages (Spam).

Customers are responsible for avoiding the prohibited activities and strictly
following the AUP terms set forth herein.

AUP Coverage
The AT&T Acceptable Use Policy (“AUP”) applies to the services that
provide (or include) access to the Internet, services provided over the
Internet, and Hosting services (collectively “IP Services”). Customer is
responsible for the actions of others who may be using the IP Service(s)
under Customer’s account. It is Customer’s obligation to take whatever
measures are necessary to protect access to Customer’s account (e.g., to
keep the access password secure). If a Customer or its User(s) violate the
AUP, AT&T may, depending on the nature and severity of the violation,
suspend or terminate service, as specified below.

Customer may have access through the AT&T network(s) and Service(s) to
search engines, subscription web services, chat areas, bulletin boards, web
pages, USENET, or other services that promulgate rules, guidelines or
agreements to govern their use. Failure to adhere to any such rules,
guidelines, or agreements shall be a violation of this AUP.
AT&T is aware that some of its Customers are, themselves, providers of
Internet based services, and that information reaching AT&T network(s) or
facilities from those Customers may have originated from the AT&T
Customer or from another third-party. AT&T reserves the right to take
action against AT&T Customers and directly against such Customers’
subscribers, even though the AT&T’s corrective action may affect other
non-offending subscribers of the AT&T Customer.

AUP Enforcement and Notice

Customer’s failure to observe the guidelines set forth in this AUP may
result in AT&T taking actions anywhere from a warning to a suspension of
privileges or termination of your Service(s). AT&T reserves the right, but
does not assume the obligation, to strictly enforce the AUP. When feasible,
AT&T may provide Customer with notice of an AUP violation via e-mail or
otherwise and demand that such violation is immediately corrected.

However, AT&T reserves the right to act immediately and without notice to
suspend or terminate IP Service(s) in response to a court order or other legal
requirement that certain conduct should be stopped or when AT&T
determines, in its sole discretion, that the conduct may: (1) expose AT&T to
sanctions, prosecution, civil action, or any other liability, (2) cause harm to
or interfere with the integrity or normal operations of AT&T’s network(s) or
facilities, (3) interfere with another person’s use of AT&T’s IP Service(s) or
the Internet, or (4) otherwise present a risk of harm to AT&T or AT&T
Customers or other parties AT&T interconnects with.

AT&T’s decisions with respect to interpretation of the AUP and appropriate

remedial actions are final and determined by AT&T in its sole discretion.
AT&T may refer potential violations of law(s) to the proper authorities,
may cooperate in the investigation of any suspected criminal or civil
wrongdoing, and will cooperate with authorities when required to do so by
law, subpoena, or when the public safety is at stake. AT&T assumes no
obligation to inform you that your information has been disclosed, and, in
some cases, may be prohibited by law from providing such notice.
AT&T does not, as an ordinary practice, proactively monitor the activities
of those who use its IP Service(s) or exercise any editorial control over any
material transmitted, hosted or posted using IP Services to ensure that its
Customers comply with the AUP and/or the law, although it reserves the
right to do so. If AT&T is alerted to violations or potential violations of this
AUP, AT&T will take whatever measures it deems necessary and
appropriate to stop or prevent such violations including the actions
described in this AUP. For example, AT&T may in its sole discretion refuse
to transmit, screen, or editing content prior to delivery of the IP Service(s),
block access to certain categories of numbers or certain sites as AT&T
determines needed to enforce these policies.

If your Service is suspended or terminated for any AUP violation, you must
get written approval from the AT&T Abuse Team (outside of the normal
ordering process) prior to reactivating or ordering new service. In any case,
AT&T may, in its discretion, decline to reinstate your Service. If AT&T
approves you for reinstatement or new service, set-up fees, reactivation fees
or deposits may apply. If AT&T discovers that you have renewed Service,
or ordered new Service, following termination for an AUP violation without
the prior written consent of the AT&T abuse team, it may terminate your
Service without further notice. In such case, you are responsible for any
applicable early termination charges.

AT&T will not issue any refunds, credits or other forms of compensation
for the period when IP Service(s) have been suspended as a result of
violation(s) or alleged violation(s) of this AUP.

AT&T shall not be liable for any damages of any nature suffered by any
Customer, User, or third party resulting in whole or in part from AT&T’s
exercise of its rights under this AUP.

Prohibited Actions
AT&T respects freedom of expression and believes it is a foundation of our
free society to express differing points of view. AT&T will not terminate,
disconnect, or suspend service because of the views you or we express on
public policy matters, political issues, or political campaigns. AT&T is
committed at all times, however, to complying with the laws and
regulations governing use of the Internet and e-mail transmissions and to
preserving for all of its Customers the ability to use AT&T’s network and
the Internet without interference or harassment from other users. AT&T
prohibits use of its IP Services in any way that is unlawful, interferes with
use of AT&T’s network or the Internet, interferes in any way with the usage
or enjoyment of services received by others, infringes intellectual property
rights, results in the publication of threatening or offensive material,
constitutes Spam/E-mail/Usenet abuse, or presents security or privacy risks.
Customer will not resell or provide Service(s) to unauthorized third parties,
whether as part of a commercial enterprise or otherwise.

Customer is prohibited from engaging in any other activity, whether legal or

not, that AT&T determines in its sole discretion, to be harmful to its
subscribers, operations, network(s).

Unlawful Activities
AT&T IP Services shall not be used in connection with any criminal, civil
or administrative violation of any applicable local, state, and provincial,
federal, national or international law, treaty, court order, ordinance,
regulation or administrative rule.

By using the IP Service(s), Customer represents and warrants to AT&T that

Customer (and its Users) are not resident(s) of any country or affiliated with
any of organization prohibited to do business within the United States as
defined and set forth at: http://www.treas.gov/ofac and
http://www.bxa.doc.gov/dpl/thedeniallist.asp. Accounts registered using
false or misleading information may be terminated immediately and without
notice.

Intellectual Property
You are prohibited from infringing, publishing, submitting, copying,
uploading, downloading, posting, transmitting, reproducing, or distributing
software, video or audio content, or any other material that is protected by
copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, any other type of intellectual
property rights, trademark laws (by rights of privacy or publicity) or other
proprietary right of any party unless you own or control the rights thereto or
have received all necessary consent to do the same. This prohibition
includes the use of any material or information including images or
photographs that are made available through an AT&T site or Service(s).

Offensive or Threatening Material or Content

AT&T IP Services shall not be used to host, post, transmit, or retransmit
any content or material that is threatening, harassing, obscene, indecent,
hateful, malicious, racist, fraudulent, deceptive, invasive of privacy or
publicity rights, abusive, inflammatory, or otherwise harmful or offensive to
third parties, treasonous, excessively violent or promotes the use of
violence, or provides instruction, information or assistance in causing or
carrying out violence against any government, organization, group or
individual, or provides guidance, information or assistance with respect to
causing damage or security breaches to AT&T’s network or to the network
of any other IP Service provider. Customer shall not create or attempt to
utilize a domain name that is fraudulent, indecent, offensive, deceptive,
threatening, abusive, or harassing.

Interaction with Minors

AT&T has a zero-tolerance policy regarding use of its Service to engage in
inappropriate conduct with a minor (anyone under 18 years of age). You
shall not knowingly collect or solicit personal information from a minor
without the express consent of the parent or guardian of the minor, nor shall
you use this Service to harm or intimidate a minor.

AT&T complies with all federal and state laws pertaining to the protection
of minors, including the reporting of all apparent cases of child
pornography or exploitation to the National Center for Missing and
Exploited Children. For more information about online safety, visit
www.ncmec.org or
www.att.com/safety.

Spam/E-mail/Usenet Abuse
Violation of the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003, or any state or federal law
regulating e-mail services, constitutes an automatic violation of this AUP
and AT&T reserves the right to seek damages and other available relief
against Customer, as applicable.

Spam/E-mail/Usenet Abuse is prohibited on AT&T IP Services. Examples

of Spam/E-mail/Usenet Abuse include but are not limited to the following
activities:

Sending unsolicited electronic mail messages and “mail-bombing” (sending

mass unsolicited e-mail messages to a single user, or group of users,
commercial or otherwise, or deliberately sending very large attachments to
one recipient) using IP Service(s) are prohibited.

Using another site’s mail server to relay mail without the express
permission of the site; using another computer, without authorization, to
send multiple e-mail messages or to retransmit e-mail messages for the
purpose of misleading recipients as to the origin; using IP addresses that the
Customer does not have a right to use; collecting the responses from
unsolicited electronic messages; maintaining a site that is advertised via
unsolicited electronic messages, regardless of the origin of the unsolicited
electronic messages; spamming, or sending unsolicited commercial e-mail,
sending unsolicited electronic messages with petitions for signatures, or any
chain mail related materials, or requests for charitable donations; sending
messages that are harassing or malicious, or otherwise could reasonably be
predicted to interfere with another party’s quiet enjoyment of the AT&T IP
Services or the Internet (e.g., through language, frequency, size or
otherwise); sending bulk (i.e., twenty-five or more recipients) electronic
messages without identifying, within the message, a reasonable means of
opting out from receiving additional messages from the sender; using
distribution lists containing addresses that include those who have opted
out; sending electronic messages that do not accurately identify the sender,
the sender’s return address, the e-mail address of origin, or other
information contained in the subject line or header; forging headers or
identifiers in order to disguise the origin of e- mail; use of redirect links in
unsolicited commercial e-mail to advertise a website or service; posting a
single message, or messages to online forums or newsgroups, that could
reasonably be expected to provoke com- plaints; posting messages to or
canceling or superseding messages on an online forum or newsgroup in a
manner that violates the rules of the forum or newsgroup or that contain
forged header information; sending bulk electronic messages in quantities
that exceed standard industry norms or that create the potential for
disruption of the AT&T network or of the networks with which AT&T
interconnects; intercepting, redirecting or otherwise interfering or
attempting to interfere with e-mail intended for other parties knowingly
deleting any author attributions, legal notices or proprietary designations or
labels in a file that the user mails or sends using, distributing, advertising,
transmitting, or otherwise making available any software program, product,
or service that is designed to violate this AUP or the AUP of any other
Internet Service Provider, including, but not limited to, the facilitation of
the means to spam.

Spam Damages: Because spam-related damages are often difficult to

quantify, in those cases where the actual damages cannot be reasonably
calculated AT&T reserves the right to seek from the Customer liquidated
damages in the amount of five dollars (US$5.00) for each piece of “spam”
or unsolicited bulk email transmitted from or otherwise connected with
Customer’s account, in addition to any other rights and remedies AT&T
may have in contract, law and equity.

Security Violations
It is Customer’s responsibility to ensure the security of its network and the
machines that connect to and use IP Service(s). You are responsible for
configuring and securing your services to prevent damage to the AT&T
network and/or the disruption of Service(s) to other customers, and ensuring
that your customers and users use the Service(s) in an appropriate manner.
Customer is required to take all necessary steps to manage the use of the IP
Service(s) in such a manner that network abuse is prevented or minimized
to the greatest extent possible. It is Customer’s responsibility to take
corrective actions on vulnerable or exploited systems to prevent continued
abuse. Violations of system or network security are prohibited and may
result in criminal and/or civil liability.

AT&T IP Services may not be used to interfere with, to gain unauthorized

access to, or otherwise violate the security of AT&T’s or another party’s
server, network, personal computer, network access or control devices,
software or data, or other system, or to attempt to do any of the foregoing.

Examples of violations of system or network security include but are not

limited to: intercepting, interfering with or redirecting e-mail intended for
third parties, or any form of network monitoring, scanning or probing, or
other action for the unauthorized interception of data or harvesting of email
addresses; hacking - attempting to attack, breach, circumvent or test the
vulnerability of the user authentication or security of any host, network,
server, personal computer, network access and control devices, software, or
data without express authorization of the owner of the system or network;

Network Usage
Where an AT&T Service account, service, or feature description specifies
limits on bandwidth, disk utilization, simultaneous connections, and/or
aggregate data download or upload, use in excess of those limits is not
permitted without an appropriate change in account type or status and may
incur additional charges for such usage.

Bandwidth, disk utilization, simultaneous connections, and aggregate data

downloads/uploads will be computed or determined by AT&T from time to
time in developing its product and service offerings. In the event AT&T
determines that an account is exceeding the relevant bandwidth, disk
utilization, aggregate data download/upload limits, simultaneous
connections, or reasonable session times, the account owner will generally
be notified by e-mail. If the excess use continues after such notification, the
owner may be requested to upgrade the type of account or to modify the
activity creating the excess use, or the account may be terminated.

If excessive bandwidth, disk space utilization, simultaneous connections,

aggregate data download or upload, or session length is determined to
adversely affect AT&T’s ability to provide service, immediate action may
be taken. The account owner may be notified by e-mail as soon as practical
thereafter.
