After you close the lid, check to be sure the latch is engaged by
trying to lift the lid just off center beyond the latch placement. If
it opens, either the latch is defective or something is obstructing and
preventing complete closure.
A few times, I have been in a hurry when i close mine and malposition
whatever happens to be the screen protector of the day. If a a tiny bit
of the protector blocks the latch from securing, the book may not be
latching securely and any movement could cause it to awaken
Recently there has been a kbase article about books and sleep issues,
you may want to do a search for it. If I find the reference, I will
post it for you. About 4-6 weeks ago, I signed up for the daily kbase
email which tells what articles, updates and manuals have been released
daily and it is buried in those emails. That is a great source to use
if you want to stay on top of things. I plan to create my own
searchable DB from it, but that project is under a bunch of critical
tasks.
