TwinDos
19
The washing machine has an integrated
detergent dispensing unit.
The detergent dispensing unit can be
used with
1. the Miele 2 Phase System
or
2. any other liquid detergent and/or fab‐
ric conditioner
The Miele 2 Phase System
The Miele 2 Phase System uses a base
detergent (UltraPhase 1) and a deter‐
gent enhancer (UltraPhase 2). In order
to achieve optimum results, the agents
are dispensed separately during the
wash process. The 2 Phase System
cleans both white and coloured textiles
thoroughly. UltraPhase 1 and
UltraPhase 2 single use cartridges are
available to order from Miele or via the
internet at www.miele-shop.com (see
end of this booklet for contact details).
Liquid detergent/Fabric conditioner
The washing machine is supplied with
two refillable containers which you can
fill with liquid detergent and/or fabric
conditioner.
How TwinDos works
Automatic detergent dispensing for a
wash cycle is activated via the Dos
sensor.
To use the TwinDos function, you need
to specify the following information for
the electronic unit:
1. the detergent type and/or fabric
conditioner with which the contain‐
ers are filled.
2. the dosage amount of the liquid de‐
tergent or fabric conditioner. The
dosage amount for Miele products is
pre-set at the factory.
Do not fill the containers with any
specialist detergents. Use cap dos‐
ing or the detergent dispenser draw‐
er for these.
Automatic dispensing cannot be selec‐
ted with some programmes, depending
on the detergent present in the TwinDos
system. For example, automatic dis‐
pensing cannot be activated for the
Woollens programme if the Miele 2
Phase System is being used. This pre‐
vents woollen garments being dam‐
aged by a detergent which is not suita‐
ble for washing wool.
