Further, when troubleshooting this speaker, it’s always best, before deciding that the Amazon Echo Spot is damaged, to attempt a factory hard reset.
Power up your Echo Spot before hard resetting. You won’t be able to reset it with the Echo Spot powered off.
Pull down the main menu page as shown in the next pictures.
This reveals the Echo Spot control menu, as shown next.
This is the gear-shaped icon near the top right edge of the main menu screen, as pointed at by the green arrow in the next picture.
The Settings screen then displays, as shown next.
You can navigate the Settings screen by moving finger up on the Echo Spot touchscreen.
You’re looking for the Device Options item.
See this item displayed next.
This brings up the Device Options screen, as shown next.
This scrolls down through the Device Options list.
You are looking for the Reset to Factory Defaults option, as shown next, pointed at by the green arrow.
You then get the Reset to Factory Defaults confirmation screen. Here, Echo Spot warns us that hard resetting will de register it from our Amazon account.
Then, after hard reset finishes, it explains that we can register the Spot again with either the same account, or another one.
Finally, the Spot asks if we really want to deregister it.
That is, tap the right arrow button in the lower right edge of the touchscreen, pointed at by the green arrow in the last picture.
The Echo Spot then begins the hard reset. It tells us this by briefly displaying an orange light ring around the outer edge of the screen, as shown next.
Next, after several seconds, the unit powers off, and accordingly, the screen goes blank and dark. Shown next.
After another few seconds, the smart speaker comes on again and begins booting. The Amazon logo screen first appears as shown next.
Then, a sort of Wait screen displays, with a white light ring and flashing blue dots, as shown next.
Then, the Echo logo screen appears, as the speaker erases all previously used WiFi and account info from its memory, as shown next.
Optimization consumes the most time during the hard reset process, taking several minutes to finish. As it runs, the Spot displays a round progress bar ring that slowly fills in while it optimizes its software. Shown in the next three pictures.
Next, after system optimization finishes, the Spot displays the blue Getting Your Device Online… screen, as shown next.
Lastly, after several seconds, the hard reset finishes. You’ll know it’s done successfully when the Select Device Language screen appears, as shown next.
At this point, the Echo Spot reset operation has finished, and you may now set up your Alexa Spot again, or get it ready to sell or gift.
