Voice Control Tips

• Naming your device: To make voice commands easier, rename your airer to something simple like “Clothes Airer” or “Laundry Airer” in the Smart Life app. This ensures Alexa and Google Assistant recognize the device clearly.
• Grouping devices: In both Alexa and Google Home, you can create device groups (e.g., “Laundry Room”) to control multiple smart devices at once. For example, you could say: “Alexa, turn on all laundry devices.”
• Create routines: Both Alexa and Google Assistant allow you to create custom routines. For instance, you can set a routine like: “Hey Google, start laundry,” which will turn on both your airer and any other related devices in one go.

Troubleshooting Voice Control Issues

• Device not found: If Alexa or Google Assistant can’t find your ABIS Smart Clothes Airer, ensure that it’s properly connected in the Smart Life app and that your voice assistant app is linked to Smart Life.
• Unresponsive device: If the airer doesn’t respond to voice commands, check that it is powered on and that your internet connection is stable.
• Rename conflicts: If you have multiple devices with similar names, Alexa or Google might confuse them. Try giving each device a distinct name.

You’re All Set!

Now that your ABIS Smart Clothes Airer is connected to Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant, you can enjoy the convenience of hands-free control. Whether you’re busy with other tasks or simply want to automate your laundry routine, voice control makes managing your smart airer easier than ever!
