Step 4: Remove jumper wires and save them
Remove the jumper wires, the Nest thermostat doesn’t need them, and save them.
Have the customer keep the current thermostat, the photo of the wiring, and any
jumper wires the current thermostat uses in a safe place. This is in case they move
and can reinstall the previous thermostat and take their Nest with them.
Step 6: Disconnect the wires and remove the base
Impoant: It’s impoant that the power to the system is o to avoid blowing a
fuse in the equipment. If you blow a fuse, the Nest thermostat won’t turn on, or
may display a power error aer installation.
Aer removing the base, gently wrap the wires around a pen or pencil to ensure
they don’t fall back into the hole in the wall.
Ask the customer if they’d prefer to patch the wall themselves or if they would
rather use the included trim plate to help hide scratches or screw holes.
Step 7: Mark where screws will go
Use the built in bubble level to make sure the Nest thermostat is level.
