I'd be grateful for some hints.
Try the following, thanks to Mrs_Often at https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...=194206&page=2

- Slide the On/off slider for enough seconds to be sure the device is off
- Press and hold down the light button
- Slide the on/off slider once as if you were switching it on, whilst still holding the light button

That should give you disco white flashing led light and restoring screen. You can let the light button go.
