The Nest app will tell you how to install and set up Nest Guard,
Nest Detect and Nest Tag. Here are some tips to get started.
Where to place Nest Guard
It should be close to where you
come and go.
So it’s easy to access on your way
in and out.
Find a spot with a good
Wi-Fi signal.
Nest Guard needs a Wi-Fi internet
connection so it can send alerts
and notifications to your phone.
Make sure it’s at the right height.
Put Nest Guard on a table or low shelf so it’s
easy to reach and its motion sensor can see
the room. It must be between 28 and 42 inches
above the floor.
The motion sensor should face front.
Keep it free from mail, keys and anything
else that could block its view.
Use an unswitched wall outlet.
Choose an outlet thats not controlled
by a switch, so you don’t accidentally
turn off Nest Guard. The included bracket
helps keep Nest Guard plugged in.

Nest Guard placement
Guard should be placed on a surface 28 to
42 inches (0.7 to 1.2 m) above the floor, and
within 2 feet (0.6 m) of the edge so it has a
clear view of the room. If it’s placed outside
of these specifications, the detection range
can be affected, and you may also experience
false alarms.
Standard detection area
Nest Guard can sense motion from people walking
up to 10 feet (3 m) away and up to 90° in front of it.

Dog Pass
If you have a dog under 40 pounds (18 kg), turn on Reduced Motion Sensitivity in
the Nest app settings to help avoid false alarms. There are different installation
requirements and motion detection ranges when using Reduced Motion Sensitivity.
Nest Detect mounting height
Nest Detect must be mounted 5 feet to 6 feet
4 inches (1.5 to 2 m) above the floor. If you mount
it higher or lower, the detection range decreases,
and you may also experience false alarms.
Standard detection area
Nest Detect can sense motion from people walking
up to 15 feet (4.5 m) away.
Mounting height
Nest Guard should be placed above your dog’s head,
but still mounted within the standard range of 28 to
42 inches (0.7 to 1.2 m) above the floor.
Nest Detect should be mounted exactly 6 feet 4
inches (1.9 m) above the floor.

Nest Detect can sense motion from people
walking up to 10 feet (3 m) away.

NEST SECURE FEATURES
No Rush
With No Rush, you can take the time you need to leave
home or disarm before the alarm sounds. By default,
you have 60 seconds. But you can use the Nest app
to choose a different time limit between 45 seconds
and 5 minutes.
Remind Me
If anyone forgets to arm or disarm, the Nest app can
send a Remind Me notification to the last person who
left the house or the first to come home. They can easily
arm or disarm by tapping the Remind Me notification.
IMPORTANT: Nest Secure does not automatically
arm or disarm when you leave or come home. Arming
and disarming must be done manually with the Nest
app or on Guard.
HOW TO ARM AND DISARM
You can arm and disarm your home in three ways:
entering your passcode on Guard, tapping Tag on
Guard, or using the Nest app. When you hear Nest
Guard’s Heads-Up alert, the light ring will also show
you a countdown so you know how much time you
have before the alarm sounds.
Nest Tag
Hold Tag on Nest Guard to:
• Disarm
Arm to Away and Guarding
• Silence when the alarm is sounding
Nest Guard
• To arm: Press a security level button.
• To disarm: Enter your passcode, then
press the button.
• If you make a mistake, press the
button, then try again.
If you enter the wrong passcode five times,
you won’t be able to try again for 90 seconds.
But you can use the Nest app or Tag to disarm.
SETTING THE SECURITY LEVELS
Nest Secure has three different security levels you’ll use when you’re
home or away. You can easily switch between them on Nest Guard or
with the Nest app.

Heads-Up and alarm
Heads-Up
Before the alarm goes off, you’ll usually hear a
Heads-Up: a friendly, human voice that tells you the
alarm is about to sound. After the Heads-Up, you’ll
have 60 seconds to disarm. This time can be adjusted
in the Nest app’s alarm countdown setting.
Alarm
When Nest Guard sounds the alarm, its light ring will
pulse red. You can also get a mobile alert so you’ll know
what’s happening at home. To turn the alarm off, use
the app, enter your passcode on Nest Guard, or tap
Nest Tag on Guard.
Panic button
Nest Guard’s panic button can also sound the alarm.
Press and hold the button until the alarm sounds. The
light ring will also turn red. If you release the button
early, the alarm won’t sound.
Pressing the panic button sounds the alarm and sends
mobile notifications to other people who share access
to your home with the Nest app.
IMPORTANT: Nest Secure and cellular backup
do not include third-party monitored emergency
notifications, response or police dispatch.
Backup features
Nest Guard battery backup
Nest Guard includes a backup battery that will last for
up to 12 hours. So even if the power is out, Nest Secure
can still detect when an intruder is in your home and
sound the alarm.
Info button
If the Info button lights up, there’s an issue with your
security system. Press the button and Nest Guard
will tell you what it is. Some issues might prevent the
system from keeping your home secure.
Issues that won’t prevent arming:
A door or window is open
Power loss on Guard
Poor network connectivity
A device needs attention and should be checked
Issues that prevent arming:
If there’s an issue that will prevent arming the Info
button will turn red.
Very low battery on Guard
A software update is in progress
Hardware failure
Wireless interference
IMPORTANT: If you leave a window or door open and
arm Nest Secure, the Detect on that door or window
is temporarily deactivated. The alarm won’t sound if
someone opens it more or closes it.

the Nest app in Nest Detect’s Settings menu.
Dog Pass
If you have a dog under 40 pounds (18 kg), you can turn
on Reduced Motion Sensitivity with the Nest app to
help prevent false alarms caused by your dog.
Tamper detection
If someone tampers with Nest Detect and removes it
from the backplate, the Nest app will send you an alert
to let you know.
Add more Nest Detects
You can have up to 20 Nest Detects (go to
nest.com/howmany) in your home to look after doors,
windows and rooms. Adding more is easy. Just use the
Nest app to scan the QR code on your new Nest Detect
to get started.
TESTING

INSTALLATION TIPS FOR NEST DETECT
During setup, the Nest app will show you where to
put Nest Detect and its open-close magnet so they
work properly.
Here are more things to consider before you install
Nest Detect on a wall, window or door.
Mounting with adhesive strips
Nest Detect and the open-close magnet should be
installed on smooth, flat surfaces only.
1. Make sure the surface is clean and dry.
2. Peel the protective cover off the adhesive strip.

at least 30 seconds.
The adhesive strips shouldn’t be used on surfaces
painted with low-VOC or zero-VOC paint or any
surfaces not listed on page 28.
IMPORTANT: Nest Detect’s adhesive strips are very
strong and can’t be easily repositioned. Before you
press and hold it for 30 seconds, be sure Nest Detect
is straight and in the right spot.

4. Snap the open-close magnet onto its backplate.
Orienting Nest Detect for motion detection
When installing Nest Detect on a door or wall,
the Nest logo must be upright to detect motion.
Installing Nest Detect on a door or window
Nest Detect should only be installed indoors.
Install Nest Detect on the upper corner of a door or
window with the Nest logo right side up.
Nest Detect should be attached horizontally on
vertical double-hung windows.
Make sure you choose a spot for Nest Detect where
the magnet can also fit. They need to be installed
close together to sense when doors and windows
open or close.
Installing the open-close magnet:
Install the magnet on the door or window frame
inside the room. The Nest app will show you where to
place it, and you’ll know it’s in the right spot when
the Nest Detect light ring turns green.
The magnet should be aligned with the bottom of
Nest Detect and placed within 1.5 inches (3.8 cm) of
Detect when the door or window is closed, as shown
in the image below.
IMPORTANT: Nest Detect should only be installed
indoors.
Installing Nest Detect on a wall
Choose a flat spot on the wall or in a corner of a
room. For more information on mounting heights,
refer to page 14.
Make sure Nest Detect is pointed toward the area
you want to keep track of. For more information on
motion detection range, refer to page 14.
To install Nest Detect in a corner, take off the flat
backplate and use the included corner backplate
for installation.
Troubleshooting offline issues
If one or more Detects are listed as offline in the
Nest app after installation, they may be too far from
Guard to connect. You can install a Nest Connect
(sold separately) to bridge the gap, or try moving
your Detects and Guard closer together.
False alarms
The following may cause unintended alarms:
Pets that walk, climb or fly above 3 feet (1 m)
Pets heavier than 40 pounds (18 kg)
Heat sources like electric heaters, heat vents
and fireplaces
Cold sources like drafty windows, air conditioners
and AC vents
Curtains near windows that may move while Nest
Guard is armed
Direct sun exposure: the front of Nest Guard and
Nest Detect should not be placed in direct sunlight
Party balloons left unattended: they may drift into
the field of view of your sensors
Insects that may come very close to the sensor
Vibration or movement caused by pets bumping Nest
Guard when it’s set to Away and Guarding
Wireless access points within 3 feet (1 m) of
Nest Detect
Special considerations
You can have up to 20 Nest Detects working with your
Nest Guard. Go to nest.com/howmany for updates
Place Nest Guard where it can’t get bumped. When
Nest Guard is set to Away and Guarding and it moves,
the alarm may sound.
Nest Guard should be installed in accordance with
the National Electrical Code, ANSI/ NFPA 70.
In some installations the magnet may need to travel
up to 1.97" (50 mm) for Nest Detect to detect that a
door or window is open.

WARNING
Wireless communications
Nest Guard and Nest Detects are engineered to
communicate with each other if they’re within
50 ft of each other in a home.
Some features of a home may reduce the effective
range, including the number of floors, number and
size of rooms, furniture, large metallic appliances,
construction materials, and other features like
suspended ceilings, ductwork and metal studs.
Nest Guard’s and Nest Detect’s specified range
is for comparative purposes only and may be
reduced when installed in a home.
Wireless transmissions between buildings will
not work and the alarms will not communicate
properly.
Metal objects and metallic wallpaper may
interfere with signals from wireless alarms.
Test your Nest products first with metal doors
opened and closed.
Nest Guard and Nest Detect have been
specifically designed and tested to comply
with the standards for which they are
Listed. While Nest’s wireless network may
route signals through other Nest or other
Thread-compatible products* to optimize
network reliability, you need to ensure every
Nest Detect can communicate with Nest
Guard directly.
To make sure Nest Detect can directly communicate
to Nest Guard, completely power off your other Nest
or other Thread- compatible products before
installing or relocating Nest Detect. Nest Detect
will flash yellow 5 times during installation if it
cannot directly communicate to Nest Guard. Nest
Detect’s light ring will pulse green when it’s connected
to Nest Guard. To learn more about powering off
your Nest or other Thread-compatible products,
please see the user guides included with your
devices, or support.nest.com, for more information.
