If your Clara BW is frozen, you will not get to see the Powered Off screen. Just plug your Clara BW into a USB power source, hold the power button for >30 seconds to force a power off, release it, press it again and hold until the power LED starts blinking rapidly.

Note that if you have upgraded to the version 5 firmware, you MUST use the revert tool (More => Settings => Device information to downgrade. Trying to revert by directly loading a version 4 firmware leaves the poor ereader in a confused state.
