Moving and leaving my Nest thermostat

Hello,

I am moving and leaving my Nest for the new owners. I have removed the Nest from my app and then reset all settings on the thermostat. The Nest restarted and now it is only showing a language selection screen. Will it still function manually as a thermostat at this point? 

Thank you

Hello Me28,

Thanks for reaching out! It appears you've taken some proactive steps in preparing your Nest Thermostat for the new owners. The language selection screen you're seeing is part of the initial setup process for the Nest Thermostat. Let's sort this out!

Once you've reset the settings and the thermostat has restarted, it should still function manually as a thermostat, even if you don't complete the entire setup process. The language selection screen is usually one of the first steps in setting up the device for the first time. To use it manually, you can typically adjust the temperature settings directly on the thermostat. To bypass the setup process and use it manually, ensure to finish the initial setup and skip the Nest App and Internet options until it finishes the prompt.

If you encounter any difficulties or have specific questions, let me know. Safe moving, and I hope the new owners enjoy the nest!

Regards,
Mark
