Acer P600 hard reset

Resetting the Acer p600 Series Portable Navigator

You may have to perform a reset if the device freezes (i.e., device no longer responds
to the buttons on the screen). A soft reset allows your device to get a fresh start,
similar to rebooting a computer. This will restart your device and adjust memory
allocation. All records and entries are retained after a soft reset. GPS settings are also
retained.

Performing an Acer P600 soft reset

Hold the device securely; then press the soft reset button on the right side of your
device.

NOTE: Performing a soft reset will not clear the RAM in the unit.

Performing an Acer P600 hard reset

If a soft reset does not correct the problem, you can then try a hard reset. Slide the
power switch to the left and then slide it back to the right.

NOTE: Performing a hard reset will clear the RAM in the unit and reset the GPS of the unit.

Loading the factory default settings

If you still encounter system errors even after soft and hard resetting the device, load
the factory default settings to correct the error. These default settings have been
selected to optimize your device’s performance.
To load the factory default settings:
1 Tap Settings on the Main Menu panel.
2 Tap Misc. on the Settings panel.
3 Tap Back to Factory Default on the Misc. screen.
4 Tap OK on the dialog box.
5 After the factory reset, reconfigure your device’s user preferences.

NOTE: Performing a hard reset will clear the RAM in the unit and reset the GPS of the unit.
NOTE: Performing a factory default will erase the RAM, reset the GPS and erase all the user/
application data on the unit’s flash storage. The data on the SD card will not be erased.
