8. Troubleshooting

8.1 Screen Ghosting / Slight Back Image

The E-Ink screen technology prioritizes eye protection and has a lower refresh rate compared to LCD screens. It is normal for the screen to sometimes display a slight "back image" or ghosting from previous content. This is a characteristic of E-Ink displays.

Solution: In text reading mode, you can press the M setting key and adjust the refresh setting (often labeled as "Refresh Mode" or similar) to a higher frequency (e.g., setting to "1" if options are numerical) to minimize this effect.

8.2 Device Unresponsive

If the device becomes unresponsive, you can perform a soft reset:

• Locate the Reset pinhole on the bottom of the device.
• Gently insert a small, pointed object (like a paperclip) into the pinhole and press briefly.
• The device should restart.

8.3 Cannot Transfer Files

• Ensure the Micro USB cable is securely connected to both the e-reader and your computer.
• Check if the e-reader is recognized as a removable disk on your computer.
• Try a different USB port on your computer or a different Micro USB cable.
