SETUP AND INSTALLATION
(Professional installation recommended)
3. Have more Nest Protects?
The Nest app will ask you if you have additional
Nest Protects to set up. If so, it’ll take you
through a faster setup. Be sure to keep all your
Nest Protects together until they’re all set up
and ready to be installed.
2. Set up Nest Protect
The Nest app will guide you through each
step: scanning the Nest Protect QR code,
connecting it to the Internet, and connecting
it to other Nest Protects in your home. Go to
nest.com/installprotect to watch the video.
The installation of a smoke and CO alarm
should be made by a qualified technician,
and all wiring used to install this alarm
should be made in accordance with articles
210, and 300.3B of the National Electrical
Code ANSI/ NFPA 70, NFPA 72, and/or
applicable codes in your local jurisdiction.
For additional installation instructions and
safety warnings, refer to page 24.
Tip: Your Nest Protect came packed in a plastic cover.
Keep the cover on so your Nest Protect stays clean
until you install it.
Tip: Lay everything out on a table for easy setup.
