You mean the power switch on top of the device? Just push down the switch quickly and it will put it on sleep mode. Or are you talking about how long your display will stay lit? Go to your settings and you can adjust from there.

Are you asking how to put your iPad to sleep mode? If so, just press the on/off button until the screen turns off. If you press too long, you will power off completely. You will see the slide bar appear to turn off on the screen. Is this what you need? Let us know.

Check your setting/general/auto lock and see of it is on "never." adjust the time you want from a minute etc before it sleeps. To turn back on-press the home button and slide the bar to unlock.
