Cover not pulling through to Kindle

I have a pdf that I converted to a epub file through Calibre, edited the metedata to include the correct cover but when i send it to my Kindle, the correct cover doesn't pull though... the cover that it uses is just the generic one like the users guide. ANy idea how to fix this?

Use the Calibre tool: Polish to embed the metadata and cover (you may need to configure the PI to how you want things)
Then convert EPUB to AZW3
Polish may update AZW3 direct, but you might still do the EPUB as it is now your base
