Performing a Cold Boot
A cold boot restarts the mobile computer and erases all user stored records and entries. Never
perform a cold boot unless a warm boot does not solve the problem.
Do not hold down any key, button or the scan button, other than the Power
button during a reset.
Cold boot resets the mobile computer, to the default settings. All added applications and
all stored data will be removed. Do not cold boot without support desk approval.
Any data previously synchronized with a computer can be restored during the
next ActiveSync operation. See
ActiveSync instructions.
