Error when attempting to set admin password

I just bought a ReadyNAS 212 and am attempting to change the default password but get an error:

"Failed to set admin account password"

Is there special formatting of the password required?ReadyNAS Error.PNG

Any suggestions?

Model: RN21200|ReadyNAS 212 Series 2-Bay (Diskless)

Well issue is solved, it finally allowed me to change the password. It was very strange because it initially never asked for the current password but then after a while when I attempted again it now requested the current password and allowed the change.
