When you press the Menu button, icons indicating the speed of your Whispernet
service appear to the left side of the signal bars.
Battery Status Indicators
You have your Kindle plugged into power and the battery is either charging or is
fully charged. The charge indicator light on the bottom of your Kindle also lights up.
Note that if your Kindle is plugged into a low powered USB port such as those found
on some keyboards or older computers, you will not derive enough power to recharge
it.
The images above show the various states of the battery as it discharges. As you
deplete the battery, less of the battery indicator will be filled in.
The battery is too low to power the Whispernet service. You must charge your
Kindle battery to restore wireless service.
The battery state cannot be determined. Restart your Kindle so that the battery
state can be accurately determined. If the question mark continues to be displayed after
a restart then contact Customer Support.
Keep in mind that subscribing to multiple blogs that update frequently may increase
power consumption and decrease the battery life. Weak signal coverage can also
increase power consumption.
Activity Indicator
Appears in the top left corner of your Kindle screen when the device is busy
downloading new content, checking for new items, searching for an item, opening a
large PDF file, or loading a web page.
