    hi...

     

     

     
    You may completely shut down the tablet by pressing  and holding  the power button for at least 5 seconds.
    Hold the tablet in landscape orientation.
    Press and hold the Volume down and Power button at the same time until the Acer logo appears on-screen and release the buttons.

    You need to hold both down (volume first and then power until the logo appears, you cannot just press momentarily.

     

    Did you try the other volume button ?
