Can I open my roof windows from the app if it is raining?

Yes, with the app it is possible to overrule the rain sensor protection temporarily. 
The first time you open the roof window, it is limited to the ventilation position and you are informed: "It's raining". 
If you once again open the roof window using the position slider, you can open it up to 50 %. 
After 15 minutes, the roof window closes automatically once again ensuring full rain protection.

Note: It is NOT possible to overrule the rain sensor protection for older motorised roof windows and for flat-roof windows.
