5. Tap OK after reading the voice code warning
6. Enter the voice PIN you widh to use and then confirm the PIN

8. Your Voice PIN code is now set

To disarm:

1. Wake up your Alexa device simply by saying "Alexa"
2. To disarm Boundary, say "Disarm my Alarm"
3. Alexa will then ask for your voice PIN which you will need to provide
4. If the PIN is recognised, Alexa will then respond that Boundary is disarming
