We will briefly see the instructions that will allow us to perform a factory reset of the multimedia system and the car radio of the Volkswagen Golf. First, let's get in the car and start turning on the instrument panel; from the central display, we will go to the car settings, scrolling down the options until we reach the factory reset option, as shown in the video.

At this point, we wait for the multimedia system to initialize, and then we will set the preferences again (as well as check that it works correctly).
