NEVER push the CUDA more than ONE time for a few (± 6) seconds before a
restart!! Simply seen all the manuals and/or doc.'s I know. Pushing more
than once can destroy the whole CUDA-system!

To clarify...

Pressing the CUDA button reboots the Power Manager. The PMU is the subprocessor that runs the whole motherboard.

There is no need to hold it down for ANY length of time.

Pressing it more than once, or even holding it down.... well, that means you're interrupting the boot cycle with yet-another boot cycle. This can result in a screwed up PMU that will quickly drain the battery.

Press it ONCE and ONLY once.
