How to use Pocketbook 302 Cover?
Greetings,

My Pocketbook 302 just arrived and I have a question: how do I use the cover? There is a red sticker on the top inside flap and some type of magnetic clasp at the bottom. The dimensions of the cover seem off. It doesn't close comfortably. Is there something I'm not getting?

I think the red sticker is double sided tape. I took the leather flap off and put velcro on the cover and the reader. It works OK. But you don't want to put the velcro on what I assume is the battery cover. It nearly pulled the battery cover off when I tried to remove the reader from its cover.

I'm still looking for something better.

I think that the red sticker covers double sided adhesive tape and you are supposed to peel the red part and glue (stick) the cover to the reader.
Gluing a piece of velcro the the sticker and another strip of velcro to the reader, as previous poster suggested, seems to be an excellent idea.

As for that funny leather insert with magnets, I couldn't figure out how it is supposed to work. Perhaps it is supposed to keep the cover closed when it is empty, perhaps the magnets are needed to keep it closed when it is closed with the reader inside. The reader I had in hand wasn't mine and I did not want to glue it the the cover, so I could not try it out properly.

I also use three vertical 5 cm velcro strips on the back , (but indeed not on the battery cover) I don't use the cover included but, ripped a hardback apart and use now a real book cover with my ereader
