I'm still using my K2 as I don't have my K3 yet. I see from the online User Guide it works a bit differently on K3.

To perform a search:

1. Type in your search term, the Search line will automatically appear. You can use whole words or partial words, and no distinction is made between lower and upper case. You can enter up to 255 characters.

2. Move the 5-way to the right to highlight the content or location to search and press the 5-way to select. The arrow indicates that more Search options are available if you scroll in the direction indicated.

Types of Searches

Here's a quick description of the available search options:

* Find: Searches the item you're currently reading for the search term(s).
* My Items: Searches all of your content (including text, metadata and annotations in downloaded items, archived items, personal documents, and local reference materials) for the search term(s).
* Store: Searches for your term(s) in the titles, descriptions, and content of items available for purchase from the Kindle Store.
* Google: Searches Google.com for indexed websites containing the search term(s).
* Wikipedia: Searches Wikipedia.com for entries containing the search term(s).
* Dictionary: Searches your default dictionary on your Kindle for the search term(s).


Viewing Search Results

Kindle displays a Search Results page when the requested search is completed. Use the Next Page and Previous Page buttons if there are more results than fit on the current page. If your results contain a specific item or website, you'll be able to underline and select specific items using the 5-way controller.

My Items

Kindle displays all titles that contain your search term(s) and shows total instances for your term(s) in each item to the left of the title. To see all results for a specific title, select it with the 5-way controller.

After you select a specific title from the search results or if you limited your search results to a specific title originally, you'll see a results page that displays all the locations where the search term(s) appear. You can select and view the locations listed using the 5-way controller. Use the Back button to return to your results page.
