Getting Started
Welcome to your new Kindle Oasis. This short guide will familiarize you with all of the features
and functionality of your Kindle. Some Kindle features may not be available based on your country
of residence or location. Please visit www.amazon.com/devicesupport for more information about
specific features. Note that Audible-enabled devices are not available in all countries, including China.
Setting up your Kindle Oasis
Setting up your Kindle Oasis takes a few simple steps:
• Select the device language.
• Connect to a wireless network.
• Register your Kindle to your Amazon account.
This device has Wi-Fi simple setup to automatically connect to your home Wi-Fi network. For Wi-Fi
simple setup to happen, you need three things: 1) this Kindle Oasis – 10th Generation (a new Wi-Fi
simple setup enabled device), 2) an existing Amazon device that is already connected to your Wi-Fi
network (such as a second generation or newer Echo, Echo Plus, Echo Dot, or Echo Show device
in your home that is already connected to your Wi-Fi network), and 3) a Wi-Fi password saved to
Amazon. If you do not have these three things, then the device will ask you to connect to a wireless
network.
To set up a Bluetooth audio device when using Audible, see Pairing a Bluetooth audio device.
To set up a Bluetooth audio device when using VoiceView, visit VoiceView screen reader.
If you haven't done these steps yet, go to the Home screen now, select Set Up Your Kindle, and
follow the onscreen prompts. If you bought your Kindle online using your Amazon account, it is
already registered to you. To verify, tap the Home icon and look for your Amazon user name in the
upper left corner of the Home screen. If it says My Kindle or shows the name of a previous owner
instead of your own Amazon account name, you'll need to register it.
To register a Kindle that has been previously registered, tap the Quick Actions icon on the
toolbar, then tap All Settings. On the Settings page, tap Your Account, then Register/Deregister
Device. If you have enabled Sign in Approval, you will need to enter your passcode followed by the
security code sent to your phone when you register the device.
If you have difficulty connecting to your wireless network or need more information, see Network
Connectivity. Once you have completed the setup process, Set Up Your Kindle will no longer appear
on your Home screen.
