Explanation
You can use the Wi-Fi to switch off the network connection for
your appliance. When you have connected successfully once,
you can deactivate the Wi-Fi and not lose your detailed data.
As soon as you activate Wi-Fi again, the appliance connects
automatically.
Note: In networked standby mode, the appliance requires a
maximum of 2 W.
During monitoring, you can only view the operating status of
the appliance in the app.
For manual remote start, you must activate the remote start
each time before you can start the appliance via the app. You
can open the appliance door within 15 minutes of having activ-
ated remote start. Remote start will not be deactivated by this.
Once 15 minutes have elapsed, opening the appliance door
will deactivate manual remote start.
For permanent remote start, you can start and operate the ap-
pliance remotely at any time. If you often operate the appliance
remotely, it is helpful to set the remote start to "Permanent".
As soon as a software update is available, you will be
informed via the Home Connect app and will be able to
start the software update via the app. Once the update
has been successfully downloaded, you can start in-
stalling it via the Home Connect app if you are in your
home network (Wi-Fi). The Home Connect app informs
you once installation is successful.
Notes
¡ The software update consists of two steps.
– The first step is the download.
– The second step is the installation on your appli-
ance.
¡ You can continue to use your appliance as normal
while updates are downloading. Depending on your
personal settings in the app, software updates can
also be set to download automatically.
¡ Installation takes a few minutes. You cannot use
your appliance during installation.
¡ We recommend that you install security updates as
soon as possible.
