Automatic dosing
The automatic dosage operates as
follows:
1.
Switch on the appliance.
A function test of the i-Dos pump unit
takes place, and this can be
detected by a brief noise in the i-Dos
detergent drawer.
2.
Select a programme with i-Dos
settings.
When the i-Dos setting for detergent
and fabric softener is active, the
corresponding symbols light up in
the display.
3.
Start the programme.
The drum rotates and, depending on
the programme selected, load
detection takes place (takes up to 2
minutes). Depending on the load
detected, the required quantities of
detergent and fabric softener (in the
last wash cycle) are then dosed,
which can be detected by a pump
noise.
Automatic dosing can be activated or
deactivated for each of the designated
wash programmes separately.
Automatic dosing can also be activated
or deactivated once the programme has
started, although this depends on which
stage the programme is in.
To activate/deactivate the function,

softener or bleach to the manual dosing
compartment. To prevent overdosing or
foam build-up, do not add more
detergent to the manual dosing
compartment.

The basic dosage is the recommended
dosage for a typical load of household
laundry weighing 4.5 kg. The quantity of
detergent and care product actually
dispensed is calculated using the basic
dosage and the amount of laundry,
which is detected automatically.
The basic dosages for liquid detergent
and fabric softener are set at the
factory. You can individually adjust the
basic dosages for each dispenser.
