Quick guide to arming and disarming your home’s security

Before you get into all the fantastic things your Vivint Smart Hub can do, you’ll want to know how to arm and disarm your security. It’s straightforward - just adhere to these steps:

• Press the shield icon on the home screen and swipe to the left for “Stay” and right for “Away.”
• Stay signifies you will still be present in the home and arms all sensors excluding interior doors and motion detectors.
• Away signifies you will be leaving, and all sensors in the home will arm.
• To disarm, simply slide the shield icon down and enter your PIN.

You’ll observe a warning if something is preventing the system from arming. For instance, an open window will urge you to act. Keep in mind that you may still arm your home’s security by adhering to the instructions above. You will then need to verify you wish to bypass the sensor in question.
