It should turn off automatically if you plug it into your computer and turn the computer on. If it doesn't, something is wrong. First thing to check is the plug that plugs into the computer for bent pins. Also check the other end of the cable that plugs into the back of the monitor. If the pins are not bent then you will likely need to take it to a shop for repair or replacement.

Why would monitor stay in power safe mode?
There are many reasons. Here are a few in no specific order: 1) the computer is off 2) the computer is in standby 3) the computer is in screen saver mode 4) the computer is in hibernate mode 5) the video card the monitor is hooked up to is not the primary video controller (check BIOS/CMOS settings, hook the monitor to the other video controller till you fix the issue) 6) there is something wrong with the computer (power supply, video card, RAM, motherboard, processor) and the computer is not POSTing. 7) the monitor isn't hooked up to the video card, check the connector 8) the computer is in a resolution or refresh rate that is too high for the monitor. Boot in safe mode and adjust the resolution and/or refresh rates. 9) the monitor cable is broken internally. 10) the monitor itself is defective. To eliminate the monitor itself as the cause of the problem, hook it up to a known working system. If it works, look at issues 1-8. Otherwise, probably time for a new monitor.
