Repair An Ebook Power Supply Switch Mode

Your eBook reader's power management settings help conserve the battery. It's common for this feature's default setting to be on. When enabled, the device typically enters sleep mode after 60 minutes of inactivity and completely shuts down after five days of non-use. A low battery level also causes the eBook reader to completely shut down instead of going into sleep mode. If your computer enters sleep mode while charging the eBook reader, it'll drain the battery. Check these things first so you can get back to reading.


Instructions


1. Charge the battery if your eBook Reader completely shuts down after an hour of inactivity, instead of going into sleep mode.


2. Turn on the eBook reader and your computer. Confirm that the computer is not in sleep mode.


3. Connect the eBook reader to your computer using a USB connection, or use the recommended AC adapter and connect to the device and wall outlet. Verify that the adapter is not bent or otherwise damaged. Plug another appliance in the outlet to confirm that it is working correctly.


4. Deactivate power management if the eBook reader completely shuts down after five days of inactivity and you don't want that to happen. Tap "More" from the Home menu, then tap "Settings." Tap "Power Management," then tap "Off." Tap "OK."


5. Press the "Reset" button on the eBook reader if problems still occur. Slide the "Power" switch once to turn the device back on.
