Christopher is exactly right and I owe Fazil and the list an apology for posting incorrect information. I did not hear the button announcement when swiping over Erase all content and settings and misinterpreted it as a footer explanation for the Reset all settings option.
Fazil, to restate what Christopher said below, to prepare your iPhone 5 for sale by wiping all your settings and data, go to Settings, General, Reset (which is the last item on the General screen), and Erase all content and settings (which is the second item on the reset screen). Again, I apologize for the incorrect post and thank Christopher for the correction.

In fact, you will be advised that media and content will be preserved. > On 26 May 2015, at 22:25, Fazil <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi, list. > I have successfully restored all my backup from IPhone5 to my new IPhone 6 Plus and now I am farewell to IPhone5. > How should I get Iphone5 ready for a new home? > I have turned Find My IPhone off what else should I do now besides erasing the data in the setting, please? > Thanks! > > > > -- > The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.
