Please note that this jumper function is similar to the "Restore AC power loss" function in BIOS. When the
latter is set to Power on, the device will also start automatically after power is connected.
2.17 CMOS Clearance/Retention (screen printing: JCMOS1)
CMOS is powered by the on-board button batteries. Clearing CMOS will permanently remove the previous
system settings and restore the board to the original (factory settings) system settings.
Step 1: Turn off the PC and disconnect power adapter.
Step 2: Use the jumper cap to connect the 1st and 2nd headers of JCMOS for about 10 seconds and
disconnect.
Step 3: When starting the device, press the <DEL> button to enter the BIOS, load the optimal default value
and save and exit the settings.
