Jim, I've been in that position and ended up powering down the system, then powering it back on. I've forgotten the exact sequence, but it did involve holding down the power button for more than a brief moment. If you're in manual mode when you power down, you can switch it to normal mode while it's powered off and then press the power button to bring it back up. Not very elegant, but a slight improvement over yanking the power cord :).
