Resetting your companion
Under normal circumstances, you will not have to use the reset
button. On rare occasions, however, your companion may no longer
respond to buttons or the screen. In this case, you need to perform a
reset to get your companion running again.
Performing a soft reset
A soft reset tells your companion to stop what it is doing and start over
again. All records and entries stored in your companion are retained
with a soft reset. After a soft reset, the Welcome screen appears,
followed by the General Preferences screen (to set time and date).
To perform a soft reset:
Use the reset tip tool, or the tip of an unfolded paper clip (or
similar object without a sharp tip), to gently press the reset button
inside the hole on the back panel of your companion.
Tip: The metal and plastic stylus that comes with your companion
has a reset tip inside. To use it, unscrew the metal barrel from
the stylus quill.
