How to Turn OFF JBL Wonderboom 1

We explain how to turn OFF JBL Wonderboom 1 here.  Now most speakers have a Power button that they prominently place on the unit so it’s easy to find.  Indeed, this speaker is no exception to this rule, since we find its Power button right on top, near the front, as we see next.

The Power button also has a light in it in the shape of a vertical line that glows when the speaker is ON, and stops glowing when you turn the JBL Wonderboom 1 OFF.

Furthermore, this lamp is dark when the unit is OFF unless you are recharging.  In that case, it glows red, as we see in the next picture.

How to Turn OFF JBL Wonderboom 1: Step by Step

To power down the unit, press the Power button. Then release after a quarter second or so.  Moreover, you needn’t hold it in for too long for the unit to see your press and then turn itself off.

When the unit shuts off, the Power button goes dark, and the unit makes a distinctive power-down sound to let you know that it is now shutting down.

But if pressing the Power button does not turn off the speaker, it could be that the memory inside has become corrupt.  So if the unit won’t turn off, try factory resetting it.

But if after the reset the speaker still does not turn off, then the unit itself may be defective. In that case, just get a new one.
