My Kindle has died, anybody know the procedure to restart it.

hold the power button for 40 seconds. After about 10 seconds the screen will go blank but keep hold of the power button then release after 40 seconds.

Not sure it needs to be fully charged, its worked for me without being fully charged.
Have you had problems doing it when it hasn’t been fully charged?
But it does need some charge for sure. I was kind of hoping that went without saying!

The fault finding guide that I used did specify a full charge, I don't know why! - but I thought that it was worth mentioning in case it was 'mission critical'
