CAUTION:
Do not execute [Initialize All Data/Settings] in user mode during the period from backup
using SST to recovery of the data.
When [Initialize All Data/Settings] is executed, the key used to decrypt encrypted
backup data (SMS password, etc.) is initialized, which makes it impossible to decrypt
the data.
It means that SMS cannot be accessed even when the backup data has been
recovered using SST.
If you inadvertently executed [Initialize All Data/Settings] and can no longer access
SMS, the SMS login password needs to be initialized by following the procedure shown
in "When SMS Cannot Be Accessed" in "Login to SMS" in this manual.
