When setting up my new iphone 5 from another iphone 5 (different carrier) I omitted to click on - Restore from iCloud back up. Now I can't see how to do it automatically. Is there a way of doing it after already connecting to iTunes?

After connecting my new iphone 5 to iTunes, I did not choose restore from iCloud Backup or iTunes Back up. I just clicked on New iPhone, because I was installing a new iphone 5 with a different carrier and sim etc. Now I don't have the option to go back. I have backed up my old phone to iCloud, so should I click on - Restore iPhone to get all the saved data from iTunes?

iPhone 5, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

I found the answer in another discussion group, so I have just erased everything through settings on my new iphone and in Backups on itunes, I have clicked on restore back up. So it appears to be working.
