Cisco 7841 phone Factory Reset using the Keypad

Hi

Does somebody know how to perform a Factory Reset on a Cisco 7841 using the Keypad? I Followed the instructions in the Cisco IP Phone 7800 Administration Guide but it didn´t work. I am trying to make this reset using the Keypad since I am not able to do it using the menu (admin setting) because it is asking me for an Administration Password that I don't know. It's important to note that I am connecting the phone to CME 10.5. The procedure I followed and didn't work is:

Step 1  Unplug the phone:
  • If using PoE, unplug the LAN cable.
  • If using the power cube, unplug the power cube.
Step 2  Wait 5 seconds.
Step 3  Press and hold # and plug the phone back in.
Step 4  When the light on the Mute button and handset light strip turns off and all other lights (Line button, Headset button, Speakerphone button, and Select button) stay green, press 123456789*0# in sequence.

When you press 1, the lights on the line buttons turn red. The light on the Select button flashes when a button is pressed.

After you press these buttons, the phone goes through the factory reset process.

If you press the buttons out of sequence, the phone powers on normally
