BOOKMAN books can use. To learn if you can use the special features with a particular
BOOKMAN book, read its User’s Guide.

Headphone Jack: The headphone jack is designed for 3.5 mm, 35 ohm impedance
stereo headphones. Caution: Monophonic headphones will not work with this
BOOKMAN.

V olume Control: The dial controls the volume of the speaker or headphones.
Speaker: The speaker is located next to the screen. For best results, do not cover the

speaker with your hand.
Backlight: Your BOOKMAN has a backlight to illuminate the screen at night and in other

low-light conditions. To turn on the backlight, first turn on your BOOKMAN and then press

. The backlight will turn off after 30 seconds of non-use. It will also turn off while the unit

pronounces words, but will resume automatically. To turn off the backlight sooner, press

again. Caution: The backlight uses a significant amount of battery power. To extend

the life of your batteries, use the backlight only when needed.
