USING THE TRAINING PAGE
This page describes how to use the training page supplied in your Reader package to learn the best distance and placement of the Reader above a standard 8-1/2 by 11 inch page. Your Reader is programmed to give you distance and orientation information when it sees the training page and will not read the text to you as usual.  The position information will include the distance between the Reader and the target text and the orientation of the Reader relative to the center of the page.  The recommended distance and positioning to the left, right, forward, or back will be spoken.  Practicing with this page can give you a better understanding of how it feels when you are holding the Reader in the best position above the page.  
1.
Locate the training page: it is approximately 8 inches by 10 inches on heavyweight paper with a cut corner. The cut is about 1/2 inch long. 
2.
Place the training page on a flat and uncluttered reading surface in front of you, using a solid (preferably black) cloth for best performance.     
3.
Place the training page in portrait orientation, with the notch in the upper right corner. 
4.
Put the Reader in Bills and Memos format. Go to settings; reading format; select Bills and Memos. 
5.
Hold the Reader approximately 10 inches above the training page and press Down to hear the results.  Continue to hold the Reader above the page while the distance and orientation information is spoken. If the Reader does not respond "Training page detected", the page may be upside down (there is only print on one side of the training page). 
6.
Move the Reader to the position recommended, and try another picture.
