My Cozmo does not have a backpack button

1. Disconnect your device from Cozmo’s WiFi network
2. Place Cozmo on his charging platform (plugged into a power source)
3. Raise and lower Cozmo’s Lift so that his WiFi Network Name (SSID) and Password (PSK) appear on his screen
4. Move Cozmo’s head down and up once to display the detailed info screen (be careful to not move the lift because that will turn off the screen and you’ll have to start all over again)

6. Using the track on the right (Cozmo’s left side), roll it backwards until the ‘>’ points to Factory Reset
7. Raise and lower his lift to select Factory Reset
