3 Resetting to factory settings
Resetting the device to factory settings removes all private keys, applications, and
settings from your Ledger Nano S device. You can reset to set it up as a new device,
restore another recovery phrase, or safely transfer the device to someone else.
Instructions
The device can either be reset from its settings menu or by entering three incorrect PIN
codes when unlocking it.
