Performing a Cold Boot
A cold boot also restarts your iPAQ, but resets your iPAQ to its default factory settings. All
user stored records, entries, applications, and drivers are erased.
Therefore, never perform
a cold boot unless a warm boot does not solve your problem.
Note:You can restore any data previously synchronized with your
computer during the next ActiveSync operation.
To perform a cold boot:
1. Use your stylus to slide open the Battery On/Off door on the bottom of the iPAQ.
When the door is open, the iPAQ Battery On/Off Switch displays.

2. Using your stylus, slide the Battery On/Off Switch all the way to the right to turn the
iPAQ battery off.
3. Using your stylus again, slide the Battery On/Off Switch all the way to the left to turn
the iPAQ battery on.
4. The iPAQ reboots and all settings must be reset at this time.
5. Before you proceed with resetting you IPAQ settings, use your stylus to close the
Battery On/Off door.
