To reset the camera, press the FACTORY DEFAULT RESET button for 1
second when the camera is on.
The indicator blinks orange, and then turns off for 5 seconds.

The internal clock will not be reset, but the time format will return to AM/PM
mode. To change it to 24-h format, see page 77.
See page 167 for the default settings.
All buffered images on the internal memory are deleted when resetting the
camera to factory default. The buffered images on the SD memory card are not
deleted.
If the camera is reset to default, all alarm logs are deleted.

not turn the power off.
