Troubleshooting in Rescue Mode

In Rescue mode, you can quickly resolve issues that involve your Dell DJ's
firmware and hard disk operations.
To activate Rescue mode:
Press the Play button while inserting the end of a thin object such as a
straightened paper clip into the reset at the same time, then hold the Play
button until your Dell DJ turns on.
In Rescue mode, you can select the following options:
• Clean Up — searches for and fixes fragmented files and lost clusters.
No files, music tracks or playlists are lost.
• Format All — reformats the Dell DJ's hard disk. NOTE: All files, music
tracks and playlists are lost. You must reload all files, music tracks and

updated firmware. NOTE: Do not choose this option until you have
downloaded updated firmware into your computer.
• Reboot — restarts the Dell DJ after testing.
