What is an Alexa routine and how do I create one for my Automower® robotic lawn mower?

If you have added your Automower® robotic lawn mower to Alexa, you can easily create so called routines that make it part of your smart home.

Routines save you time by grouping a number of actions so you do not have to ask for each action individually. It is easy to add the commands for your Automower® robotic lawn mower to a routine.
