Load detection function with 3D sensor
A washing machine load designates the amount of washing which fills the drum.
The load detection function determines the load. Depending on the load, the
control optimises the volume of water and the duration of the wash programme.
The
load detection function with 3D sensor
evaluates the mass of the washing.

Principle of the load detection function with 3D sensor
The sensor measures how far the oscillation system drops when the drum is
loaded with washing.
The load is calculated based on the measurement result.
The 3D sensor is calibrated when the appliance is switched on. To
do this, the door must be closed and the appliance empty.
