12.4 Resetting the PPC6600 and
Clearing Memory
You can perform a soft reset or a full reset. During a soft
reset, the device is restarted and only some data in open
programs may be lost. However, a full reset turns the
battery off and returns the device to its original factory
settings and deletes all programs, files, contacts, and other
information you have saved to the device
. Therefore, it is
extremely important to back up data to a storage card or your
computer on a regular basis in the event that a full reset has to be
performed.
Performing a Soft Reset
If your PPC6600 responds slowly, stops responding, or freezes,
try a soft reset. A soft reset causes the PPC6600 to restart and
readjust memory allocation. Unsaved data in open windows
may be lost.
 Use the stylus to press and hold the Reset button for
more than 2 seconds.
