Basic Operation
Turning on and off
To turn on your Mio, press and hold the power button for 3 seconds. The Home screen appears.
For normal operation, turn off your Mio by briefly pressing the power button. Your Mio enters a suspend
mode. When you next briefly press the power button, the system resumes. You will either be back to
where you left off or see the Home screen.
CAUTION:
If the charge indicator glows amber when you press the power button, it means that the battery is fully
discharged. In such cases, charge the battery first before turning on your Mio again.
Resetting your Mio
Soft Reset
Occasionally, you may need to perform a hardware
reset when your Mio stops responding; or appears to
be “frozen” or “locked-up.”
Insert a small tool, such as a straightened paperclip,
into the reset button of your Mio. This is called a “soft
reset.” The Home
screen
should appear after a soft
reset.
Hard Reset
If your Mio still does not respond after a soft reset, you can use the following steps to perform a “hard
reset.”
1. Disconnect all cables, including the AC charger, from your Mio.
2. Press and hold the power button until the charge indicator glows green to shut down your Mio.
3. To use your Mio again, press and hold the power button for 3 seconds. The Home screen appears.
