Answers.Body: <p>Hold the power button or slider for about 20–30 seconds. Release it then hold it for about 5 seconds or until you see something happen on screen. That does a power on reset. Obviously you’ll have to make sure it’s charged.</p>
  <p>Alternatively you can start it as normal then:</p>
  <ol>
  <li>From the Kindle Home screen, press Menu.</li>
  <li>Select Settings.</li>
  <li>Press Menu.</li>
  <li>Select Reset to Factory Defaults.</li>
  </ol>

  Hold the power button or slider for about 20–30 seconds. Release it then hold it for about 5 seconds or until you see something happen on screen. That does a power on reset. Obviously you’ll have to make sure it’s charged.
  
  Alternatively you can start it as normal then:
  
  1. From the Kindle Home screen, press Menu.
  2. Select Settings.
  3. Press Menu.
  4. Select Reset to Factory Defaults.
