Logitech Wonderboom Hard Reset Instructions

Here, we demo Logitech Wonderboom hard reset instructions. These restore the default settings to this Logitech speaker.  Hard reset works as follows.

Hard resetting Logitech Wonderboom speakers wipes any memorized Bluetooth devices from memory. And, clearing this information stops the Logitech from pairing to any nearby devices after the reset. Further, you would hard reset the Logitech Wonderboom to re gift it.  Or, you just wish  to halt its auto pairing with devices you no longer play through lt.

Logitech Wonderboom Hard Reset Instructions: Step by Step

1. Turn on the Speaker

Press and release the  Power  button.  The status lamp in that button lights and you hear a power-up sound. We circle the  Power  button in the next picture.

2. Wait for the Power Up Sound

The Logitech Wonderboom makes a unique sounding turn-on noise. The speaker is then ready for hard reset when this sound finishes.  It may or may not pair with a device.  That depends on whether you have any in-range Bluetooth devices that know about the unit and that it have previously paired with it as well.  Whether paired or not, hard reset works the same way, as follows.

3. Be Sure the Logitech Wonderboom is Not Paired with Anything

This speaker seems to not respond to hard reset requests while connected with a source Bluetooth device. So, unpair the speaker before resetting.

4. Press the  Power  and the   Volume DOWN  Button Together for Up to Eight Seconds

Find the  Power  and Volume DOWN   buttons.  The   Power  button is on the top of the speaker, near the front.   Volume DOWN   is the long vertical line on the front, near the bottom.  We point out both of these with the green arrows in the next picture.

The Logitech Wonderboom 1 then enters hard reset.  Then in a few seconds, the unit powers off afterwards. E.g. The falling electronic ka-plunk sound plays. Next the status lamp in the  Power  button goes dark.

5. Check that your Logitech Wonderboom Did Indeed Hard Reset

Next, power on the speaker again, as we detail in step 1 above.

After a hard reset, the speaker comes up in ready-to-pair mode again, with the pairing lamp rapidly flashing white.

6. Logitech Wonderboom Hard Reset Now Done !

The hard reset is done now. So go ahead and let someone else use this speaker. Or pair it again with your favorite Bluetooth devices.

After this, the speaker no longer auto connects with any previously paired Bluetooth devices. Thus, to restore auto BT pairing, you pair this speaker manually with your desired device(s). Then any time that both the Logitech and the source device have Bluetooth running, pairing again occurs without you having to do anything.

Don’t forget to delete any now-stale connections to Logitech Wonderboom from your source Bluetooth devices that you set up prior to hard resetting the speaker.  These will no longer work.  So you’ll want to “forget” them in your source device’s settings pages.
