How do I stop a multilist from continuing to number after starting a new section?

I have created a multilist style, but when using it in RoboHelp 9 (also tested in RoboHelp 11), I am unable to create a new list with that format without the numbering continuing from the previous list.  Numbers continue even if I try to change them to 1.  When I change it to 1 (which is already selected under the format bullets and numbering), the number disappears and the style is set to normal.

Following is the coding for the list:

rh-list.Basic1 {

x-lvl-2-type: lower-alpha;

x-lvl-4-type: decimal;

x-lvl-4-format: "&o<x>&c";

x-lvl-5-format: "&o<x>&c";

x-lvl-6-type: lower-roman;

x-lvl-6-format: "&o<x>&c";

x-lvl-7-format: "<x>.";

x-lvl-9-type: lower-roman;

x-lvl-1-pfx-class: rls-1-Basic1;

x-lvl-3-type: lower-roman;

x-lvl-3-format: "<x>.";

x-lvl-2-format: "<x>.";

x-lvl-1-format: "<x>.";

x-lvl-5-type: lower-alpha;

x-lvl-7-type: circle;

x-lvl-8-type: disc;

x-lvl-8-pfx-class: rls-8-Basic1;

x-lvl-7-pfx-class: rls-7-Basic1;

x-lvl-6-pfx-class: rls-6-Basic1;

x-lvl-5-pfx-class: rls-5-Basic1;

x-lvl-4-pfx-class: rls-4-Basic1;

x-lvl-3-pfx-class: rls-3-Basic1;

x-lvl-2-pfx-class: rls-2-Basic1;

x-lvl-8-format: "<x>";

x-lvl-9-pfx-class: rls-9-Basic1;

x-lvl-1-p-tag: P;

x-lvl-2-margin: 20px;

x-lvl-2-p-tag: P;

x-lvl-3-margin: 40px;

x-lvl-3-p-tag: P;

x-lvl-4-margin: 60px;

x-lvl-4-p-tag: P;

x-lvl-5-margin: 80px;

x-lvl-5-p-tag: P;

x-lvl-6-margin: 100px;

x-lvl-6-p-tag: P;

x-lvl-7-margin: 120px;

x-lvl-7-p-tag: P;

x-lvl-8-margin: 140px;

x-lvl-8-p-tag: P;

x-level-count: 9;

x-lvl-9-margin: 160px;

x-lvl-9-p-tag: P;

}

span.rls-1-Basic1 {

font-family: Verdana;

span.rls-2-Basic1 {

font-size: 10pt;

}

span.rls-5-Basic1 {

font-family: Verdana;

font-size: 10pt;

}

span.rls-4-Basic1 {

font-family: Verdana;

font-size: 10pt;

}

span.rls-3-Basic1 {

font-family: Verdana;

font-size: 10pt;

}

span.rls-2-Basic1 {

font-family: Verdana;

font-size: 10pt;

}

span.rls-9-Basic1 {

This worked.  I was trying to change the numbering in the bullets and numbering.  Thank you.

You set the restart in the list properties. When you add the second list to your topic, check the Restart Numbering Option:
