# Safe-mode

**Prerequisite:** Make sure device has enough battery charge. If not turning on, charge the battery and try again.

**To put your device in Safe Mode:**

1. Hold down BOTH buttons (RESET and MODE).
2. Release only the RESET button, while holding down the MODE button.
3. Wait for the LED to start blinking magenta
4. Release the MODE button.

Before the LED blinks magenta, the trap goes through its normal startup sequence (blinking green, then blinking cyan). If the trap cannot connect to the cloud, you may not see breathing magenta — but if the LED is blinking magenta after you release the MODE button, safe mode is active.
