How to Factory Reset Onn Soundbar to its Default Settings

Are you having trouble with your Onn Soundbar or looking to restore its default settings? Resetting can often resolve issues and enhance performance. You can choose between a soft reset, which clears minor glitches, or a factory reset, which addresses more persistent problems. This guide will walk you through both methods to help you restore your soundbar to its best state.

How to Soft Reset the Onn Soundbar

A soft reset is typically the first troubleshooting step you should try when encountering issues. Performing a soft reset on your Onn Soundbar is a simple yet effective way to resolve minor issues such as audio dropouts, connectivity problems, or unresponsive controls without losing your settings or data.

1. Use the Power button on the soundbar or the remote control to switch it off.

2. Unplug the soundbar from the electrical outlet and leave it for approximately 10-15 seconds to ensure it powers down completely.

3. After that, plug the Onn soundbar back into the power outlet and turn it on.

Now, play a soundtrack and ensure it’s working properly. If it doesn’t, then move on to the hard reset (factory reset) method.

How to Factory Reset Onn Soundbar

If a soft reset doesn’t fix the problems with your Onn Soundbar, you might need to consider a factory reset. This will return the soundbar to its default settings, erasing any custom adjustments you’ve made. It’s a more thorough solution intended for situations where other troubleshooting methods haven’t worked.

Reset the Onn Soundbar Without a Remote

You can easily reset your Onn Soundbar without the remote by locating the small Reset button at the back of the soundbar. This looks like a pinhole or recessed button. Just follow the instructions below to restore the device to its default settings.

1. Ensure that the soundbar is completely turned off before proceeding with the hard reset.

2. Look for a small hole or button labeled Reset on the back or underside of the soundbar. For pinhole, you will need a paperclip, sim ejector, or a similar tool to press the button.

3. Insert the paperclip into the reset hole and press down gently.

4. Keep the button pressed for about 10-15 seconds. The LED lights might flash, indicating that the reset process has started.

5. Wait for a few minutes. Once the reset is finished, the soundbar will be back to its original factory settings.

6. Your Onn soundbar should now be reset to its default settings. Now you need to set it up again, starting from the initial setup as if it were newly purchased.

Reset the Onn Soundbar With a Remote

Alternatively, you can also reset it by using its remote control directly on your soundbar. This approach lets you restore factory settings using the remote buttons.

1. To switch on the soundbar, press the Power button.

2. Press and hold the Volume Down and Power buttons simultaneously.

3. Keep holding both buttons for around 10-15 seconds until the soundbar’s display flashes or the LED indicator blinks, then release the buttons.

4. The soundbar should now be restored to its factory settings. It may power off and then restart or display a message indicating the reset is complete.
