2. Wait for the Power Up Sound

The Ultimate Ears Wonderboom makes a unique electronic sounding noise when it turns on. The unit is then ready for use when this sound stops.

Now it may or may not pair with a device.  That depends on whether you have any in-range Bluetooth devices that know about the Ultimate Ears Wonderboom.  Whether paired or not, the reset works as follows.

3. Unpair the Ultimate Ears Wonderboom Before Reset

The Ultimate Ears Wonderboom does not answer to the reset command while connected with a source Bluetooth device. So disconnect it before resetting.

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

Find the  Power  and Volume DOWN   buttons.  The   Power button is on the top of the Ultimate Ears Wonderboom, near the front.  Volume DOWN  is the long plum line on the front, near the bottom.  See these both pointed out by the green arrows in the next picture.
