6.2 Reading an eBook
Once your eBook file is opened, the first page of your document is displayed.
The first page may be a cover page.
To go through your document, swipe (right to left) or press the right button to
go forward in the document (turn a page forward) or swipe (left to right) or
press the left button to go backward (turn a page backward). When you reach
the beginning of your document you can’t go backward and when you reach the
end of your document you can’t go forward.
If you hold down the page forward button, you will start browsing the
document in an accelerated mode. This feature works also in backward
direction.
Some pages contain hyperlinks which allow you to jump directly to a certain
reference inside the current eBook file. To select the hyperlinks, tap directly
the hyperlink. To leave the hyperlink selection mode, turn a page forward or
backward. In general Hyperlinks are underlined.
After a jump from an hyperlink, you can go back to your original location, by
swiping up.
6.3 The Reading Environment
The page does not show only text or image but also some extra information
(like page number, battery consumption or book title) in reserved areas of the
screen.
While reading you just need to tap the middle of the screen or press the main
menu button to pop-up the Reading contextual menu. Different choices will
then be available depending on the file format of the document you are
reading.
