For a full forty sec, press and hold, or slide and hold, the
Power button. Even once the screen goes blank, continue to hold for 40 seconds,
and then let go. Press or slide the power button to restart if the device
doesn’t start up again on its own.

power adapter. Let the device charge for 30 min, unplug it, and then try to
restart again.
