Resetting the device

You may need to reset your device occasionally. A normal (or soft) reset of your device clears all active program memory and shuts down all active programs. This can be useful when the device is running more slowly than normal, or a program is not performing properly. A soft reset is also necessary after the installation of some programs.

If a soft reset is performed when programs are running, unsaved work will be lost.

You can also perform a hard reset (also known as a full reset). A hard reset should only be performed if a normal reset does not solve a system problem. After a hard reset, the device is restored to its default settings—the way it was when you first purchased it and turned it on. Any programs you installed, data you entered and settings you customised on the device will be lost.

To perform a soft reset
