Use trim plate if needed
You can cover up holes or marks left by your
old thermostat with the optional trim plate.
Place the trim plate on the wall and put
the base on top so they snap together, then
screw them both to the wall.
The trim plate can be found in the bottom of
the Nest box.
Mounting Nest on an
electrical box
Electrical boxes aren’t common, but if you have
one, secure the steel plate to the electrical box
with two of the short steel plate screws. Insert
the steel plate screws into the long slots on the
steel plate.
Use the other two short steel screws to attach
the Nest base and trim plate to the steel plate.
