How to Perform a Warm or Cold Boot on your Motorola MC9190
There are two reset functions on your Motorola MC9190, warm boot and cold boot.
- A warm boot restarts the Motorola MC9190 and closes all running programs.
- A cold boot also restarts the MC9190 and closes all running programs but also installs some drivers.
