# How do I reset the Myndr Switch?

To reset the Myndr Switch, proceed as follows:

## 1. Remove the batteries

Slide the Myndr Switch upwards off the mounting plate. Take both batteries out of the switch.

## 2. Do something else for a while (at least 1 minute!)

Give the switch **at least a full minute** to discharge completely: the switch is designed to use very little power. Even after you have removed the batteries, the switch can keep working for a while. This is because some parts of the switch temporarily store a small amount of power. **Only once all the power in the switch has been used up will it perform a full reset.**

## 3. Put the batteries back in

Now put the batteries back in. Pay attention to the orientation of the plus and minus poles. The battery compartment shows which side the plus and minus poles go. The left battery goes with the plus facing up. The right one goes with the plus facing down.

If all is well, your switch has now been fully reset and after about a minute you will hear a cheerful beep.
If you hear a sad beep or nothing at all, [insert a new set of batteries](/en/article/how-do-i-replace-the-batteries-1vy48gs/).
