Press the buttons on the right side of the screen to turn the pages.

3.2 E Ink ^® screen

The Bookeen Diva HD e-reader has a remarkable black and white screen that uses a revolutionary technology, i.e., the E Ink® electronic ink screen. This screen is like a page of paper made of tiny ink particles that can move and change the display of content in an instant. This screen flash (very fast display of a black screen) at regular intervals to refresh these particles and thus maintain the best possible contrast between black and white. An e-ink screen is endowed with an extremely low power consumption mechanism. This consumption occurs mainly when the in particles are organized on the page to display a text or an image. Once the content of the page is displayed, consumption is almost zero. The E Ink® display technology therefore allows the Bookeen Diva HD e-reader to brag about a battery life that can last for several weeks.

Note: Even if your battery is empty, your e-reader may continue to display an image on the screen. If your device seen blocked, first remember to plug it in to recharge the battery.

• This touch screen may be operated only with fingers or a suitable stylus.
• The screen is very sensitive and you don't need to press hard to make it react.
• In fact, the screen is so sensitive that it can respond even if you touch it lightly (like a caress).

The Bookeen Diva HD e-reader touch interface follows a few simple and intuitive rules outlined in details below.

Light touch: You may select or confirm a choice by simply touching the screen with your fingertip. As mentioned above, you don't need to press hard on the screen, just touch it lightly.

Fields of the page

The page header displays the title of your document. For an HTML and TXT document, this is the name of the file. The footer displays the pageometer. The pageometer is a progress bar which indicates the progress of your reading. The page header can be hidden via the pop-up menu that appears at the bottom of the page. As you read, you may also be informed of the time remaining before the end of the chapter/end of the book by accessing the pop-up menu settings. To resume reading, touch the center of your screen.

The direct consequence is that the number of pages does not vary with the size of the characters.

Dictionaries: dictionaries use the same procedure as "Search in the text." To search for a word in the dictionary, just touch the word and maintain your finger on it for one second.
