Can I use one of the buttons on the Twilight to dim the lights?

How do I add the Twilight sleep and wake-up light to my Philips Hue system?

Just like any other Philips Hue light! Connect the light to power, and tap the three dots (...) icon on the Home tab to add Twilight to your app.

How do I customize the buttons on Twilight?

If you have a Bridge, you can adjust the settings in the Settings tab. If you don't have a Bridge, you cannot adjust the settings. 

How do partners of Philips Hue work with Twilight?

The same as any other Philips Hue light, the Twilight lets you control it with your favorite voice assistant, widgets, Siri shortcuts, third-party smart switches, and more.

How should I clean Twilight's cork base?

Cork is a natural product, and it shouldn't be cleaned with chemicals. To clean, simply wipe with a damp cloth. 

What do the two buttons on the Twilight sleep and wake-up lamp do?

By default, the dot button on the Twilight cycles through six scenes, specially designed to mimic the sun's natural light throughout the day. The Hue button starts a Go to sleep automation with the Sunset style, slowly dimming to mimic the sun's daily descent. With a Bridge, you can customize these two buttons as you would any smart button.
