Guard weekly, and test all of your Detects' open/
close and motion sensing at least once a year
You should also re-test Guard if you move it to a
new location
Testing Nest Guard

and wait for the countdown to finish

trigger the motion sensor

sound after the countdown ends

entering your passcode or tapping a Tag on
Guard before the countdown ends
