Sony SRS XE300 Reset Instructions Procedure, Step by Step
1. Turn ON the Speaker
Press and release the Power button for a half-second or so. Find this button as we show in the next picture. It’s the circular button, topmost one on the buttons panel.
Then, the status light comes on. This light we find just to the left of the Power button.
The speaker makes a rising electronic sound when it powers up, whether it connects to a nearby device or not. But whether it pairs or not, this Reset Instructions routine works the same, as follows.
2. Press and Hold the Volume DOWN and Pairing Buttons
Both of these buttons we find on the panel on the side of the speaker, as called out in the next picture. Counting from the top, the Pairing button is the second button down, just below the Power button. And, the Volume Down button is the fifth one down from the top, just below the Volume UP (+) button, and just above the BATT button.
Then, hold both buttons in until all lamps go out, the unit plays a power-off sound, and then the speaker shuts down completely. This takes around five seconds as the speaker factory Reset Instructionss.
Next, the speaker powers OFF, and the Power and Pairing lamps go dark, as we see next.
You may release the buttons when all the lights go dark.
3. Check that your Sony SRS XE300 Speaker Did Indeed Reset Instructions
Next, power on the XE 300 once more, as described in step 1 above.
Note that after a factory Reset Instructions, this speaker comes up in pairing mode. The Pairing lamp blinks in a pulse-pulse-pause, pulse-pulse-pause pattern to tell you this. This is a signal for you to look for this speaker on a nearby BT device, and pair to it if you so desire.
4. Done with Sony SRS XE300 Reset Instructions !
The speaker reinitialization is now complete. So you may now sell or gift the unit, or pair it again with your favorite Bluetooth devices.
Now after a Reset Instructions, the speaker no longer auto-connects with any previously paired device. Thus, to restore this auto syncing, you manually pair the XE300 with a device. Then after that, any time that both speaker and that device have Bluetooth ON, and they’re near to each other, pairing would automatically take place once more.
