Factory Data Reset

Performing a Factory Data Reset resets your tablet to factory defaults, erasing all data from your tablet.
This action permanently erases ALL data from the tablet, including Google or other account settings,
system and application data and settings, downloaded applications, as well as your music, photos,
videos, and other files. Any data found on an external SD card is not affected.
Note: When you sign in to a Google Account on your tablet, Factory Reset Protection is automatically
activated. This protects your tablet in the event it is lost or stolen. For more information, see
Reset Protection.
If you reset your tablet to factory default settings with the Factory Reset Protection (FRP) feature turned
on, you must enter the user name and password for a registered Google Account used on this tablet to
regain access to the tablet. You will not be able to access the tablet without the correct credentials.
Warning: If you reset your Google Account password, you must wait 72 hours after changing your
password to perform a factory data reset on your tablet.
Before resetting your tablet:
1. Verify that the information you want to keep has transferred to your storage area.
2. Log in to your Google Account and confirm your user name and password.
