Smart Tips for Getting the Most Out of Your ABIS Smart Clothes Airer

Your ABIS Smart Clothes Airer offers a range of smart features designed to simplify laundry tasks, save energy, and make drying clothes more convenient. By following these tips, you’ll maximise its performance, integrate it seamlessly into your smart home, and ensure an efficient laundry routine.


1. Schedule Drying Times for Energy Efficiency

How It Helps:

  • Scheduling drying times during off-peak energy hours can significantly lower your electricity costs and reduce your environmental impact.

How to Do It:

  1. Open the Smart Life app and select your ABIS Smart Clothes Airer.
  2. Use the Scheduling feature to set the airer to run at specific times, such as late at night or early morning when electricity rates are lower.
  3. Save the schedule so the airer automatically starts and stops at the programmed times.

Benefits:

  • Saves energy and reduces utility bills by running the airer when electricity is cheaper.
  • Ensure your laundry is done by the time you need it.

2. Use the Timer for Short Drying Sessions

How It Helps:

  • Using the Timer feature allows you to control how long the airer runs, preventing over-drying and unnecessary energy consumption.

How to Do It:

  1. In the Smart Life app, find the Timer function in the airer’s control panel.
  2. Set the desired drying time (e.g., 30 minutes, 1 hour) based on the load size and fabric type.
  3. The airer will automatically turn off once the timer runs out.

Benefits:

  • Prevents over-drying, protecting your clothes from damage.
  • Optimises energy use by running the airer only as long as necessary.

3. Monitor Energy Consumption for Smarter Use

How It Helps:

  • The Smart Life app provides real-time data on how much electricity your airer is using, helping you track and manage energy consumption for cost savings.

How to Do It:

  1. In the airer’s control panel, tap the Electricity Statistics or Power Consumption section.
  2. View daily, weekly, or monthly energy usage data.
  3. Adjust your drying schedules or timer settings based on this data to reduce power usage.

Benefits:

  • Provides insight into how much energy you’re using and where you can save.
  • Helps you create more eco-friendly and cost-effective drying habits.

4. Automate Drying with Smart Scenes

How It Helps:

  • Use Smart Scenes to integrate the airer with other devices or automate drying based on time, weather, or other conditions. This makes it easier to control the airer and other smart home devices together.

How to Do It:

  1. In the Smart Life app, go to the Smart tab and create a new scene.
  2. Set a trigger (e.g., time of day, humidity levels, or when you leave the house) and choose the action for the airer (e.g., turn on or off).
  3. Save the scene and let the app handle the automation for you.

Example Scene:

  • Set the airer to turn on when humidity levels rise above 80% (perfect for indoor drying when outdoor drying is not an option).

Benefits:

  • Automates your laundry routine based on real-time conditions, making drying more convenient.
  • Reduces manual control, freeing up your time.

5. Use the Gentle Drying Option for Delicate Clothes

How It Helps:

  • If your airer has different drying modes, use the gentler settings for delicate fabrics to prevent damage from excessive heat or drying time.

How to Do It:

  1. In the Smart Life app, check if your airer has an option for Gentle Drying or a similar mode.
  2. Select this mode for delicate fabrics like silk, lace, or lightweight materials.

Benefits:

  • Protects delicate clothing from wear and tear.
  • Extends the lifespan of your clothes by preventing over-drying or heat damage.

6. Enable Notifications for Real-Time Updates

How It Helps:

  • Enabling smart notifications keeps you updated on your airer’s status, such as when a drying session is complete or if there’s an issue.

How to Do It:

  1. In the Smart Life app, open the airer’s Settings menu and tap on Notification Settings.
  2. Toggle on notifications for important events such as Power On/Off or Drying Complete.
  3. You can also enable Error Notifications to receive alerts if the airer disconnects from Wi-Fi or encounters a problem.

Benefits:

  • Keeps you informed, so you don’t have to keep checking the app or the airer.
  • Helps you troubleshoot quickly if issues arise.

7. Optimise Placement for Better Performance

How It Helps:

  • Proper placement of your airer ensures better airflow and faster drying, while also improving Wi-Fi connectivity for smart features.

How to Do It:

  1. Place the airer in a well-ventilated room with good airflow to speed up the drying process.
  2. Ensure the airer is within a reasonable range of your Wi-Fi router for a stable connection to the Smart Life app.
  3. Avoid placing the airer near sources of moisture, such as showers or kitchens, to prevent dampness and longer drying times.

Benefits:

  • Speeds up drying by improving airflow.
  • Ensures strong Wi-Fi connectivity for uninterrupted smart features.

8. Perform Regular Maintenance for Longevity

How It Helps:

  • Keeping your airer clean and well-maintained ensures that it functions efficiently and lasts longer.

How to Do It:

  1. Regularly wipe down the airer with a soft cloth to remove dust and lint.
  2. Check for any blockages or build-up in vents or filters (if applicable).
  3. Periodically inspect the airer for loose parts or wear and tear.

Benefits:

  • Ensures optimal performance and efficiency.
  • Extends the lifespan of the airer by preventing build-up that can affect drying times.

9. Use Geo-Fencing for Location-Based Automation

How It Helps:

  • Geo-fencing allows the airer to turn on or off based on your location, ensuring it only runs when necessary.

How to Do It:

  1. In the Smart Life app, create a new automation with Location as the trigger.
  2. Set a location-based trigger, such as turn on the airer when you leave home or turn it off when you arrive home.
  3. Save the automation and allow the app to use your phone’s location to control the airer.

Benefits:

  • Ensures the airer only runs when needed, saving energy.
  • Adds an extra layer of convenience by automating the airer based on your location.

10. Keep the Firmware and App Updated

How It Helps:

  • Keeping the Smart Life app and the airer’s firmware updated ensures you have the latest features, bug fixes, and optimizations.

How to Do It:

  1. Check the Smart Life app for updates in the App Store (iOS) or Google Play Store (Android).
