Charging the Kobo

Your Kobo has been fully charged before you receive it. There should be no need to charge it while

you have it. But if you are unsure you can always see how much charge your Kobo Arc has using the

battery icon at the bottom right corner of the screen. A thunderbolt symbol within the battery

icon means that your KoboArc is charging. While it’s charging, you’ll also see an orange light beside

the power button. To charge your KoboArc, attach the included wall charger to the Micro USB port

at the bottom of your Kobo Arc and plug it into a wall outlet.

Putting your Kobo Arc to sleep and waking it up

You can turn your KoboArc off or put it to sleep when you’re not reading. Both help your battery

last longer. When your KoboArc is asleep it still uses a little power, and when it’s off, there’s no

drain on the battery. When you put your KoboArc to sleep and then wake it up, it only takes a few

seconds to go back to the last

screen you saw. If you turn your Kobo Arc off, you’ll go back to your Home Tapestry when you turn

it on again, and it can take up to 25 seconds for your Kobo Arc to restart.

To turn your Kobo Arc on:

• If your Kobo Arc is charging, press and hold the power button for five seconds.

• If your Kobo Arc is not connected, press and hold the power button for two seconds. You’ll see a

blinking blue light beside the power button while your Kobo Arc is turning on.
