When you pair your Nanit with a Wi-Fi network, Nanit saves the credentials for easy connection in the future. Sometimes, this needs to be forgotten or reset to prevent unwanted connections. To effectively reset your saved Wi-Fi pairings on your Nanit, you can follow the steps below:

## **Nanit Pro Camera** 

1.  Confirm your Nanit is receiving power. The camera must be powered on, working and fully attached to the stand/mount.
2.  Locate the recessed button on the back of your Nanit Pro camera. The button is located to the left of the USBC port on the back of the camera.
3.  A long press (more than 10 sec) will reset the camera.
4.  If the reset was successful the status blue light will start blinking.

## **Nanit Plus & Nanit Original Cameras**

1.  Confirm your Nanit is receiving power. The camera must be powered on, working and fully attached to the stand/mount.
2.  Locate the recessed master reset button on the back of your Nanit camera. The pinhole is located to the left of the connect button on the back of the camera.
3.  Prepare a paper clip or an appropriate tool that will fit all the way into the pinhole. We suggest using a blunt metal tool. Never stick a sharp object into a Nanit.
4.  A single press on the reset button will reset the camera.
5.  If the reset was successful it will take the camera a few _seconds_ for the _RED IR to flash_ and for the camera to make a low _click sound,_ but you may not hear it. Now, simply wait for your Nanit Camera's **Night Light to flash 2 times,** this is your main indicator that the camera has been successfully reset and is ready to for you to move on to the in-app instructions for setting up your camera. It can take a full 3-minutes for the reset to complete.
6.  Now that the camera is ready to be paired open the side menu in the Nanit app.  
    
7.  Choose your baby’s settings  
    
8.  Tap ‘Network’.  
    
9.  Tap ‘Pair Nanit with your network’ and follow the onscreen instructions to pair your Nanit.
