2. Press and Hold Buttons: Simultaneously press and hold the PAGE and ENTER buttons.
3. Turn On the Device: While continuing to hold both buttons, power on the GPSMAP 67i.
4. Release Buttons: Keep holding the buttons until you see a prompt on the screen that asks, "Do you really want to erase all user data?"
5. Confirm Reset: Release the buttons and select Yes to confirm the reset. You may need to press ENTER on the Yes option more than once for the device to reboot.

Important Notes
- Performing a master reset will erase all user data, including waypoints, routes, and personal settings. It is advisable to back up any important data before proceeding with this reset.
- If you encounter issues after resetting, ensure that your device has a clear view of the sky for at least 20 minutes to reacquire satellite signals[1][3].
