"Turn off" in Spanish can mean to feel/to be bothered or upset. Example:
• Me molestan las compañías que siguen enviándome correo basura.
It can also mean that something is unappealing. Example:
• Yo no haría la clase de más de una hora. A muchas personas no les atrae eso (or, "esa idea".)

@harleen90 This is a literal translation. If I hear that sentence the first thing I would think of is that people are sad or lacking in energy. The only way I could understand the right meaning is by literally translate it back into English.
