4. Instellen

4.1 Installatie

1. Schakel de stroom uit: Locate your circuit breaker and turn off the power to your heating and cooling system.
2. Oude thermostaat verwijderen: Carefully remove your old thermostat from the wall. Take a picture of the wiring before disconnecting any wires.
3. Install Nest Base: Mount the Nest Base to the wall using the provided screws and anchors. Ensure the base is level.
4. Wire the Nest Thermostat: Connect your system's wires to the corresponding terminals on the Nest Base. The Nest Thermostat is compatible with most 24V heating and cooling systems. A C-wire (common wire) is often recommended for consistent power, especially with systems that do not provide continuous power to the thermostat. If you do not have a C-wire, the Nest Thermostat may still work by 'power stealing' from other wires, but this can lead to intermittent issues.
5. Scherm aansluiten: Snap the Nest Thermostat display onto the Nest Base.
6. Herstel de stroom: Schakel de stroom weer in via de stroomonderbreker.

5. Initiële setup: Complete the initial setup questions regarding your home type, heating/cooling system, and preferences.

Note for Refurbished Units: If you are setting up a refurbished unit and encounter issues connecting to the app, you may need to perform a factory reset and then use the webplaats thuis.nest.com to add the device.

The Nest Thermostat learns your preferred temperatures over time. Adjust the temperature manually for a few days, and the thermostat will begin to build a schedule based on your habits. Look for the Nest Leaf icon on the display, which indicates an energy-saving temperature setting.

5.3 Planning

While the thermostat learns automatically, you can also create or modify a custom schedule through the Nest app or directly on the device. This allows for precise control over your home's temperature throughout the day and week.

5.4 Afstandsbediening en spraakopdrachten

Use the Google Nest app on your smartphone or tablet to control your thermostat from anywhere. You can also integrate your Nest Thermostat with voice assistants like Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa for hands-free control. For example, say "Hey Google, set the thermostat to 72 degrees" or "Alexa, turn up the heat."

3. Plaats twee nieuwe AA-alkalinebatterijen en let op de juiste polariteit.
4. Snap the display back onto the Nest Base.

7. Probleemoplossing

• Geen stroom/beeldscherm uit: Check your circuit breaker. Ensure the thermostat display is properly seated on the base. If your system lacks a C-wire, ensure the AA batteries are fresh.
• Problemen met Wi-Fi-connectiviteit: Verify your home Wi-Fi network is operational. Restart your router and the Nest Thermostat. Ensure the thermostat is within range of your Wi-Fi signal.
• Verwarming/koeling werkt niet: Check the thermostat's mode (Heat, Cool, Off). Ensure the target temperature is set appropriately. Verify your HVAC system is receiving power.
• Thermostat Not Learning: Ensure you are making manual temperature adjustments consistently for a few days. Check that the 'Learning' feature is enabled in the settings.
• Fabrieksinstellingen: If persistent issues occur, you can perform a factory reset. Go to Settings > Reset > All Settings on the thermostat. Be aware that this will erase all your settings and learned schedules, requiring re-setup.
