Reconnect mains? What does that mean?

What exactly does that mean?

I just bought the Samsung Q70 home theater system. There's a hack posted but I'm a little confused by what the means. I assume it means to unplug the unit from the surge protector and reconnect it after 30 seconds?

1. Remove disc from tray.
2. Switch off player
3. Wait 30 seconds, then reconnect mains.
4. Turn on player with remote. Wait for player to finish loading and display 'no disc'.
5. Press enter on remote. (There will be no on-screen response.)
6. Press 8, 4, 2, 6, 9 on the remote. (There will be no on-screen response.)
7. Press enter on the remote. Player will automatically turn off.
8. Turn player on.
9. Open Tray
10. Close tray.
11. Turn player off then on again.
12. Player is now region-free.

lol is it really? so i assume that means that i do that stuff and then unplug the system, reconnect it and continue on?

sorry for the stupid question but i want to make sure i have this right.

I can't speak to the procedure but I think the key issue is wait 30sec. Maybe it means unplug it for 30sec.

The way I read it is open the tray, turn off the power disconnect from the mains, "pull out the plug", wait thirty seconds, then plug it back in to the mains.
