Choosing a 12-hour or 24-hour Clock Format
By default, your NOOK uses a 12-hour clock format. It labels hours 1 through 12.
Optionally, you can switch to a 24-hour format in which hours are numbered 1 through 24. This format is used in
Europe and in organizations such as the military. In 24-hour format, 1:00 p.m. appears as 13:00.
To switch to a 24-hour format, do this:
1. Open the General settings screen by tapping the General menu choice on the All Settings screen.
2. Find the DATE & TIME section in the scrollable panel on the right. Tap the Use 24-hour format toggle switch so it
reads ON.
Your NOOK switches to a 24-hour format.
To return to a 12-hour format, tap the Use 24-hour format toggle switch so it reads OFF.
