WHICH ALERTS CAN BE SILENCED
• Heads-Up alerts can be silenced by using the
Nest button.
• Emergency Alarms can be silenced by using
the Nest button. For your safety, get out of the
house immediately.
• Because there are many different types of
fires, you may experience an Emergency Alarm
without having first experienced a Heads-Up
alert. This means that dangerous levels of
smoke or CO occured extremely quickly and
Nest Protect must sound the Emergency Alarm.
• Once the Nest Protects in your home are
connected to each other, whenever there’s a
Heads-Up or an Emergency Alarm, they will all
tell you what and where the danger is. So go
to that room and press the button on the Nest
Protect there to silence every Nest Protect
in the home. This will ensure that you will
identify the source of the danger in that room.
HEADS-UP AND EMERGENCY ALARMS
ALERTS
Nest Protect has two kinds of voice alerts:
Heads-Up and Emergency Alarms. Both tell you
what and where the danger is, but the spoken
Heads-Up is designed to give you a friendly
warning before conditions get dangerous.
A Heads-Up can be silenced by pushing the
Nest button.
When smoke or carbon monoxide reach
dangerous levels, Nest Protect tells you where the
emergency is and pulses red, in addition to making
a loud alarm sound. This is an Emergency Alarm.
The smoke alarm will take precedence when
carbon monoxide is also present.
