5.21.3 Using the Remote
Control function
After HomeWhiz setup, Bluetooth will turn on
automatically. To enable or disable the Bluetooth
connection, please see 5.11.2 Bluetooth 3".
If you switch your machine off and on
while Bluetooth is enabled, it will reconnect
automatically. If the paired device goes out
of the range, the Bluetooth connection will
turn off automatically. For this reason, you
will need to turn on Bluetooth again if you
want to use the Remote Control function.
You can check the Bluetooth symbol on
the display to follow the connection status.
If the symbol is on, this means that the
Bluetooth connection is established. If
the symbol is established, the product is
trying to connect. If the symbol is off, this
means that you have no connection.
A
WARNING!
• If the Bluetooth connection is enabled
on your product, you can select the
Remote Control function. If the Remote
Control function cannot be selected,
check the connection status. If the
connection fails, repeat the initial set-
up settings on the appliance.
• For safety reasons, the product's door
will remain locked while the Remote
Control function is enabled, independently
of the operating mode. If you want to
open the door of the product, you will
need to turn the program selection knob
or press the Remote Control key to
disable the Remote Control function.
If you want to control your washing machine
remotely, enable the Remote Control function
by pressing the Remote Control button while
the programme knob is in the Programme
Download/Remote Control position on the
control panel. Once the product is accessed,
you will see a screen similar to the one below.
When Remote Control is enabled, you can
only manage and switch off the machine
and follow status on the washing machine.
35 / EN
All functions except child lock can be
managed through the application.
You can check the function indicator on
the key to follow whether the Remote
Control function is On or Off.
If the Remote Control function is Off,
all the operations are handled on the
washing machine and only status follow-
up is allowed on the application.
If the Remote Control function cannot be
enabled, you will hear a warning after pressing
the button. This might occur if the product
is switched on or if there is no product
paired through Bluetooth. Bluetooth setting
being Off or the washing machine's door
being open are examples for such cases.
When you enable this function on the washing
machine, said function will remain on except
for certain cases, allowing you to control your
washing machine remotely via Bluetooth.
In certain cases, it deactivates
itself for safety reasons:
• When your washing machine
undergoes a power interruption.
• When the programme knob is turned
to select a different programme or
when the product is switched off.
