th

 EDITION

To use the Kindle keyboard, most people find it easiest to hold the device in both 

hands, and use the tips of their thumbs to press the keys.

To enter lowercase letters, press the appropriate letter key. To enter uppercase letters, 

hold down the Shift key  

, and then press the desired letter key like you do on your 

computer keyboard. Alternatively, you can press and release the Shift key 

and 

then press the desired letter. Only the next letter will be capitalized.

The number keys are located at the top of the keyboard. If you need a punctuation 

mark or a symbol that is not shown, press the Symbol key   

on the bottom row of 

the keyboard. You will see a menu of punctuation marks and symbols.
