# How To Reboot Safely

<p class="callout danger">Rebooting will result in downtime for the customer, and is usually not necessary. This should only be done if advised by the development team or support.</p>

<p class="callout danger">Rebooting using other methods (such as removing and reconnecting power to the collector) may result in data loss.</p>

When you wish to reboot the unit for any reason, you will need to connect to the OnsiteConfig WiFi network and [browse to OMU](https://docs.nexuscare.co.uk/books/system-management/page/accessing-omu-onsite-management-utility "Accessing OMU (Onsite Management Utility)").

From there, head to the system tab and click "Reboot now"
