Activating the Extra Dry option dries your dishes extra-thoroughly by higher temperatures during the rinse cycle and a longer drying phase - with just one push of a button. Sometimes you need an extra silent environment at home to focus on your daily chores. The Silence on demand function can be activated via the Home Connect App and silences your dishwasher whenever necessary. It reduces noise to a minimum for up to 30 minutes at any time by an active pause while the dishwasher keeps on running. With the Silence on demand function you can focus on what matters most. Thanks to partnering with Amazon Alexa, your dishwasher can be controlled by voice as well. Please find out, if the relevant “Home Connect” skill within the Alexa app is available for your country & language. Activate the respective skill to establish the connection between Amazon Alexa and your home appliance.
