GENERAL MAINTENANCE
CLEANING YOUR NEST PROTECT
Nest Protect has been designed to be as
maintenance free as possible, but you
should keep it clean. As with any smoke
alarm, dust buildup on the outside or
inside of Nest Protect can stop it from
working properly.
To clean Nest Protect:
1. Remove it from the wall or the ceiling
(turn counterclockwise until it comes
off the backplate).
2. Wipe the outside with a clean,
slightly damp cloth. Don’t use any
soaps or solvents.
3. Place Nest Protect on a soft, dry cloth
with the Nest button facing down.
Open the battery compartment door and
remove the batteries. Remove the screws
and lift off the back. Be careful to not
lose the screws.
4. Gently vacuum the inside. Make sure
to clean all the way around the mesh
sides of the smoke chamber (the large
metal circle).
Note: Never use detergents or solvents (like
glass cleaner) on your Nest Protect and do
not spray air fresheners, hair spray or other
aerosols near it. Do not get water inside the
alarm or paint over it.
REPLACING THE BATTERIES
Nest Protect uses six AA Energizer® Ultimate
Lithium batteries (L91). These batteries can
be purchased at your local retailer.
1. Twist Nest Protect counterclockwise until
it disconnects from the backplate.
