+Maintenance mode
+================
+
+If you have some long tasks to do on your wallabag instance, you can enable a maintenance mode.
+Nobody will have access to your instance.
+
+Enable maintenance mode
+-----------------------
+
+To enable maintenance mode, execute this command:
+
+::
+
+    bin/console lexik:maintenance:lock --no-interaction
+
+You can set your IP address in ``app/config/config.yml`` if you want to access to wallabag even if maintenance mode is enabled. For example:
+
+::
+
+    lexik_maintenance:
+        authorized:
+            ips: ['127.0.0.1']
+
+
+Disable maintenance mode
+------------------------
+
+To disable maintenance mode, execute this command:
+
+::
+
+    bin/console lexik:maintenance:unlock
