To turn automatic checking on or off, select Menu > System settings > Software update > Auto-check setting. 6.2 Factory reset A factory reset resets all user settings to default values, so time/date, network
configuration and presets are lost. However, the radio’s current software version is maintained. The pre-set buttons will be cleared. To perform a factory reset, select Menu > System settings >Factory reset proceed >Yes.
