Intelligent dosing system
en
(De)selecting intelligent dosage and
adjusting the dosage strength:
The intelligent dosages for detergent
and fabric softener are set at the factory
for all programmes in which intelligent
dosing can be used.
The dosage strength has been preset to
X (lightly soiled laundry) for detergent w
and to Y (medium level of softness) for
fabric softener ©. It can be changed
individually for each programme.
In addition to intelligent dosing, washing
additives (e.g. stain remover) can be
added manually via the left-hand
compartment.
The selection (on/off) and the
Note:
selected dosage strength for
w i-DOS and © i-DOS are saved for
each programme until they are changed
again, even if the appliance is switched
off.
Topping up the detergent/ fabric
softener:
If the display for the selected intelligent
dosing flashes, this means that the
amount of detergent or fabric softener in
the dispenser is below the minimum fill
level. The content is sufficient for
approx. three washes.
The same detergent or fabric softener
can be added at any time. If you change
product/manufacturer, we recommend
that you clean the dispensers first.
If required, adjust the basic dosage.
Basic settings
The basic dosages are:
For detergents – based on the
■
manufacturer's recommendation for
average soiling and the respective
water hardness.
For fabric softeners – based on the
■
manufacturer's recommendation for
a medium level of softness.
36
Refer to the packaging label on your
detergent/fabric softener or ask the
manufacturer directly for this
information.
To find out the hardness of your water
supply, use a test strip or check with
your water supplier.
My water hardness:
Below is an example of detergent
dosages on a packaging label:
Degree of
soiling →
Water
hardness ↓
soft/medium 55 ml 75 ml 120 ml 160 ml
hard/
75 ml 95 ml 150 ml 180 ml
very hard
The default setting for the basic dosage
is set specifically according to the area
in which you live (e.g. 75 ml for
detergent and 36 ml for fabric softener).
Set the basic detergent dosage
according to the detergent's packaging
label. Take your water hardness into
consideration when doing so.
Select the basic fabric softener dosage
according to how soft you would like
your laundry to be.
Changing one basic dosage affects all
three dosage quantities in the same
way.
Notes
Reduce the basic dosage if using a
■
very concentrated detergent.
