Home Connect
This appliance can be networked and controlled
remotely using a mobile device. The Home Connect app
offers extra functions that complement the networked
appliance perfectly. If the appliance is not connected to
your home network, it can be operated as usual via the
display.
The availability of the Home Connect function depends
on the availability of Home Connect services in your
country. Home Connect services are not available in
every country. You can find more information on this at
www.home-connect.com.
