How to perform a Hard Reset on a Kia/Hyundai car stereo.

Model: Kia KIA Various
Part: Warning Light - Car Error Code

In this video, we see how to perform a hard reset on a Kia/Hyundai car stereo, bringing it back to factory settings. This operation becomes necessary when you have messed up too much on the device, making it impossible to return to the initial settings without damaging the device. From the options, we select the last one, which is "default". We will need to initialize the system by clicking on the invisible keyboard (highlighted in the video) and entering the code of your software version (last 4 digits). A keyboard will appear, and you will need to enter the current time + your software version (again, the last 4 digits). Now scroll down and choose the "Factory Reset" option. Press "send" and allow the system time to restart.
