Before you leave the house, activate alarm mode quickly and easily with the voice command: "Alexa, tell Gigaset: I'm leaving". And what's especially handy is that you can put on your shoes or look for your car keys at the same time. The Gigaset alarm system automatically switches to out-of-home mode after a 30-second delay. This means that your home is optimally protected during your absence.

You can then switch to your individually configured mode with the sentence "Alexa, tell Gigaset: set custom". You just need to set once which door and window sensors should be active in this mode, then in future you can simply switch to your individual mode via voice command.
