Google Nest Learning Thermostat 4th Gen Installation And Configuration Manual page 30

6. Install the Nest Learning Thermostat
a. Run the wires through the center of the Nest Thermostat base and attach it to the wall using the
screws provided. Do not use a power drill on the screws. Over-tightening the screws can damage
the circuitry in the Nest base. For paneling, plaster-and-lath, or if there is a stud behind the
thermostat, pre-drill a hole using a 3/32" bit first.
b. Use the built-in level for proper alignment. Trim or re-strip any wires as necessary and connect
them to their corresponding terminals on the base. Make sure the wire is straight and the
connector button stays down after inserting it.
7. Configure the Nest Learning Thermostat
a.
Once the thermostat is physically installed, you will need to use the Google Home app to
complete the Pro Setup process. Some settings and features are only available during the
Setup process.
b. Ensure that you have consulted equipment manuals for the optimal settings for your
equipment configurations.
c. See the step-by-step instructions for details on how to handle installations where the
customer isn't present or there is no Wi-Fi available.

8. Test heating and cooling
a. This is vital to any installation in order to prevent a callback. After setting up the Nest Learning
Thermostat, run each part of the system for a few minutes. This will ensure that the thermostat is
installed correctly and there aren't any HVAC compatibility issues.
b. The thermostat will require Wi-Fi to fully test the equipment and report any errors.
c. See page 80 for additional details on performing post-installation testing.
