Can I factory reset my Droid Maxx without updating OS

I have a Droid Maxx still running 4.2.2. I have apps that will notnrun under KITKAT. Everyday I have to defer the install . I would really like to factory reset my phone to clean out the old stuff. But I am afraid it will install KitKat during the reset. Can I reset and keep Jellybean?

Welcome to Android Central! The update shouldn't install unless you accept it. However, depending on the phone, if you decline the update enough times, it might force you to update.
