RESETTING THE MOBILE PRO 780
Occasionally you may need to reset your NEC MobilePro.
For instance, you may need to reset after restoring data from your host PC, after modifying the MobilePro’s configuration,
when you are unable to power on using the Power button, or when the operating system stops responding.
The NEC MobilePro is equipped with two reset buttons, designed for use depending upon specific conditions. The
two reset buttons are:

"Full Reset Button – The full reset button restores your system to its original shipping configuration, erasing
all information that you have entered.
To ensure the safety of your information at all times, you should perform regular backups ofyour MobilePro information to your host PC.
