One of the lovely things about epaper readers is that they only use power when the screen refreshes (page changes, menus, etc.). If you take a break from reading and just put your reader down on a table, it won't use power until you turn the page the next time you read.
Key lock or standby mode allows you to transport it without accidentally pushing any of the keys. To get this mode, push the power button briefly. You'll know it's in key lock because it will say so at the bottom of the screen, along with a message to push the power button to unlock.
To turn it off completely, you hold the power button down. I can't think of a reason why you might want to routinely turn a reader off. The last time mine was off was to flash an update a few months ago. I routinely get 2-3 books over a couple of weeks before the indicator drops below 4 bars.
