12. Press to test
Press the Nest button on one Nest Protect. It will tell you what
to do next. Every Nest Protect in the house should speak up,
confirming that they're connected to each other.
Important note:
If one of your Nest Protects doesn't speak up
or sound its alarm during the test, try moving it closer to your
other Nest Protects and testing again. It should be located
within 15 meters of another Nest Protect, but its range may be
affected by your home's construction or interference from other
wireless electronics.
If it still doesn't speak up during the test, reset it to defaults
and add it to your Nest Account again.
