EN AUTO DOSING / FIRST USE Before you can use the Auto Dosing function, some p reparatory steps are required. 1. Set the correct water hardness level. Correct detergent dosing depends - among others – also on the hardness of your local water. Hard water requires a higher dosage of detergent than soft water. The water hardness saved in the washing machine is set to “soft” when you buy it.
Arrange the labels according to one of the following combinations which are technically possible: Tank 1 content Tank 2 content Main liquid detergent and Fabric softener Main liquid detergent and Special liquid detergent Special liquid detergent and Fabric softener Main liquid detergent and Main liquid detergent Special liquid detergent and Main liquid detergent Example: if you do not use fabric softener, you can fill Tank 2 with a special liquid detergent, e.g. for Wool or Sport laundry.
EN 4. Set the dosing quantities for the tanks. The concentration of detergents available on the market differs considerably; for that reason, the dosing values of the auto dosing function need to be adapted to the detergent / fabric softener you use.
Close the tank flap and push the detergent dispenser back into the dispenser compartment. The Auto dosing system is ready for use now • Press the UP or DOWN key to select if you want the function to be switched on or off, and confirm by pressing the OK key. If you prefer dosing the detergent manually and you do not want to use the Auto dosing function.
EN AUTO DOSING / DAILY USE Make sure that the detergent dispenser is correctly inserted If the detergent dispenser is not correctly inserted, a programme cannot be started, and the display indicates that the dispenser must be inserted. A running programme will be interrupted when the detergent dispenser is moved out of its correct position; the programme needs to be restarted after moving the detergent dispenser back into correct position.
SAVING TIPS • Achieve the best use of energy, water, detergent and time by using the recommended maximum load size for the programmes, as indicated in the programme chart. • Do not exceed the detergent dosages indicated in the detergents manufacturer’s instructions. Use the Auto dosing function; prepare this function as indicated in “Auto dosing - First use”. • Use “Prewash” for heavily soiled laundry only.
