and can be changed.
In addition to intelligent dosing, you can
manually add cleaning aids (e.g.
softener, bleach or stain remover) to
compartment

For programmes without intelligent
dosing, or as desired (in which case,
set intelligent dosing to

detergent can be added manually to

During washing, the progress of the
programme is displayed in a bar on the

The arrows fade in and out according to
the progress of the programme. They
indicate the programme settings/
options which can be changed/added
as the programme progresses.
Some programme sequence steps
explained:
■
Load adjust active

Pre-washing, Washing, Rinsing,
Spin, Drain
... are displayed during
the wash cycle.

Note:
Foam detection
If

washing machine has detected too
much foam during the wash
programme and has automatically
switched on one or more rinse
cycles in order to remove the foam.
Add less detergent to the next
washing cycle with the same load.
