Dosing Aid - DAILY USE
IMPORTANT NOTES
You have to set any options before you start the wash programme. That is, before you press the “Start
(Pause)” button for the first time.
If “Dosing Aid” is selected and you want to add more laundry after you have pressed the “Start (Pause)”
button for the first time, proceed as follows:
- Press and hold the “Reset/Drain” button for a few seconds; the display shows the default setting of the
programme.
- Wait until the door unlocks (this can take more than a minute).
- Now add your laundry and go on following the procedure as described above („Daily Use“) to get the
recommended detergent quantity displayed.
When “Dosing Aid” is selected, you have to add the detergent into the dispenser. This also applies if you
have set a start delay. You cannot add the detergent directly to the drum using a dosing cup because the
door will be locked while the dosing amount is displayed.
If “Dosing Aid” is selected and you want to reset everything after you have pressed the “Start (Pause)” button
for the first time, proceed as follows:
- press and hold the “Reset/Drain” button for a few seconds; the display goes back to the initial state. It can
take more than a minute until the door unlocks.
The duration of programmes with small maximum loads (like “Delicates”, “Wool/Handwash” etc. - see in
separate Programme Chart) is NOT updated according to the amount of laundry added.
The real programme duration can differ from the time indicated on the display even after the wash load has
been identified. This is because it can be influenced by factors like reduced inlet water temperature, which
leads to a longer heating time. Note also that whenever the programme duration is recalculated, the display
shows an animation.
If you load the drum with laundry which is already wet, do not use the full amount of detergent suggested by
the “Dosing Aid” function - only use 2/3 of the recommended amount.
The minimum wash load the “Dosing Aid” will identify is 2 kg, even for smaller loads below 2 kg.
Press the “Dosing Aid” button.
The corresponding symbol appears
on the display.
The recommended detergent
amount in ml appears on the display.
Pour the recommended detergent
amount in the appropiate chamber
of the dispenser now.
Press the “Start (Pause)” button
again.
Press “Start (Pause)”. The door
locks. The drum gently moves for
about 10 seconds while the wash
load is detected. On the display an
animation is shown.
Note that for Wool and Delicates
programmes the drum will move
more gently.
If you have selected the option
“Prewash”, the display will alterna-
tely show the detergent amount for
the prewash chamber (marked with
“I”) and for the main wash chamber
(marked with “II”) of the detergent
dispenser.
