Turning off the device

Using Shut down mode
The Shut down mode completely shuts down the device without
saving your data or the current state of the device. Shut down mode
closes all open apps, shuts down the operating system, and then
turns off your tablet.
Always back up your data and settings before shutting down your
tablet.
To turn off your device using Shut down mode:
1Press and hold the Power button.
A pop-up screen appears, asking whether you would like to
shut down.

Using Sleep mode
Your device will automatically time-out after a couple minutes of
non-operation, placing it into Sleep mode. The screen dims and
then darkens to conserve battery power. For more information on
waking the tablet from Sleep mode, see “Waking the tablet” on
page 36. To change the amount of time it takes for the display to
darken, touch the Settings ( ) icon, and then the Display ()
icon.
Increase battery life between charges by using the shortest available
time-out setting. See “Display settings” on page67.
