Dear Readers,
Just like other WiFi devices available in the market, Jiofi devices too are provided with an option to reset the device to factory default settings.
This article is about how to reset the device to factory settings. If you want to know, when you must reset the device to its factory settings, read our previous post "When you should factory reset Jiofi device?".
The procedure is simple, but must be carried out with care so as not to damage the sensitive small pin provided for factory reset.
Step1: Remove the back cover of Jiofi device, but do not remove the battery.
Step2: Switch on the device, if it is in switched off mode.
Step3: Locate the reset button. This is a very small opening located at different positions in different models of Jiofi devices.
In Jiofi2, this reset button is in the shape of a small rectangle with a word "RESET" printed. Located at the right edge towards the middle ( when you are looking at device cover opened).
In Jiofi3, the reset button is in the shape of a small round dot or full stop. No word indication. It is located just above to top of battery towards right side.
Step4: Insert a small pin which can fit into the reset button hole and hold pressed gently for about 10-15 secs, if reset happened properly you will see that your jiofi device will restart with factory settings in place.
Caution: Do not use a very sharp edged pin as it can pierce through the reset button sheet. Use a pin with taper end. The best pin for this purpose is the one provided with your device when you bought new.
Once reset is done, it is as though you are starting afresh with a new device.
