How do I reset my VELUX wall remote?

2 min. readlast update: 12.05.2025

Resetting the VELUX wall remote will clear it back to factory settings. This is usually done when other troubleshooting methods are not working.

If resetting the remote, all skylights or skylight shades attached to the remote will need to be reset as well. This process is not difficult, but it does require physically accessing the product.

Reset the remote.

First, press the end of a paperclip or similar tool into the gear icon hole on the bottom of the remote for 1 second. Follow this immediately by pressing the paperclip into the pairing icon hole next to the gear icon hole.

After the remote is reset, use the up/down arrows to test the remote. Confirm that the remote no longer operates your product. If the product still responds, perform the reset procedure again.
