Monitor in Factory Mode

How to reset the monitor if it entered factory (FastBoot) mode

Last updated on July 14, 2026

💡

Sometimes the monitor goes into a factory mode if a button is accidentally held down during transit or charging. It’s easily fixed and doesn’t have any lasting effects

What it Looks Like

If you find the monitor in this case, use the volume up button to navigate to Fastboot mode, and using the volume down button, select Fastboot mode.

The boot mode menu, from which you can navigate to Fastboot mode

How to get out of Fastboot Mode

You’ll be directed to this menu on the left - DON’T REBOOT SYSTEM!

Press and hold the power button until the monitor resets. This should bring the monitor back to the home screen, and it’ll be fully operational

This is the Fastboot menu that you’ll be brought to. Don’t select any options and long-press the power button.

☝

If you are brought to any other menu not pictured above, a long-press of the power button will reset the monitor!
