AutoDoor
Thanks to AutoDoor, you can open your automatic fridge with a knocking signal or voice command. And if need be, you can also open and close it just as easily by hand or with your smartphone. This makes it easier to open large, heavy doors.
You can select the opening angle and the duration until closing individually.

Control by voice command
A prompt to Amazon Alexa is all you need to open the fridge completely hands-free. This keeps the handle and appliance front clean, even when your (or someone else’s) hands are sticky.
The appliance and voice assistant must be connected to the SmartDevice app
Control by knocking signal
Knocking twice on the door will automatically open your fridge or freezer. You can knock anywhere on the interior or exterior of the door. Incidentally: If your hands are full you, you can also use your foot.
Control by smartphone
The door can also be automatically opened and closed with the SmartDevice app. As well as this, further AutoDoor features can be set: the duration until the door is closed or to which angle the door should be opened (at least 70°).
