12.3 Resetting Your Device
Soft reset
Occasionally, you may need to reset your device. A soft (or normal) reset of your device clears all active
program memory and shuts down all active programs. This can be useful when your device is running slower
than normal, or a program is not performing properly. A soft reset is also necessary after the installation of
some programs. If a soft reset is performed when programs are running, unsaved work will be lost.
To perform a soft reset
RESET button
Use the stylus to press the RESET button found at the
bottom of your device. Your device restarts and displays
the Today screen.
