You hold the power switch until the screen saver goes away. Technically, a Kindle in sleep mode uses as much energy as a Kindle turned off. The E-book reader only uses energy when it is changing pages. Which is why I don't worry about turning it off. I have had Flight Attendents who were a bit more concerned in making sure that passenger X turns it all the way off and having a discussion about sleep being the same as off just strikes me as silly.
