Nest Thermostat E and Nest Learning Thermostat (3rd gen or earlier)

Nest app

1. Open the Nest app and select your Nest thermostat.
2. Select Schedule .
3. Create or adjust temperature set points to your liking. For further instructions, see Learn about Nest thermostat temperature schedules and how to change them.

On your thermostat

1. Go to the schedule screen on your thermostat.
   • Nest Learning Thermostat: On the Quick View menu, choose Schedule .
   • Nest Thermostat E: On the Quick view menu, choose Settings   Schedule.
2. Create or adjust temperature set points to your liking. For further instructions, go to Learn about Nest thermostat temperature schedules and how to change them.

• Early-On: If you’ve enabled Early-On, your thermostat might start your system before the setpoint in your schedule. Early-On is designed to have your home reach the target temperature the level exactly when you set it in the schedule. If you want your system to start at the scheduled time (not before), disable Early-On. Your home won’t reach the target temperature until after the scheduled time.
• Automatic switching with presence sensing: If you’ve enabled Home and Away routines or Home/Away Assist, your thermostat might still automatically switch to its Eco Temperatures when it senses everybody has left home. If you don’t want it to do that, disable Eco Temperature auto switching for your thermostat.
• No temperature schedule: If you don’t set up a schedule after clearing it, your thermostat will stay on whatever temperature you set it to until you select a new temperature. This means it’ll work like a traditional, non-programmable thermostat or like “hold” mode on a programmable thermostat.
• Start learning again: You can always turn learning back on if you ever want your thermostat to start learning your temperature preferences again and make adjustments to the schedule automatically. Your Nest thermostat will use any temperatures that are in your schedule as a starting point to start learning again.
