Base dosage
The basic dosages are:
■
For detergents
– based on the
manufacturer’s recommendation for
average soiling and the respective
water hardness.
■
F or fabric softeners
– based on the
manufacturer's recommendation for
a medium level of softness.
Refer to the packaging label on your
detergent/fabric softener or ask the
manufacturer directly for this
information.
To find out the hardness of your water
supply, use a test strip or check with
your water supplier.
The default setting for the basic dosage
is set specifically according to the area
in which you live (e.g. 75 ml for
detergent and 36 ml for fabric softener).
Set the basic detergent dosage
according to the detergent's packaging
label. Take your water hardness into
consideration when doing so.
Select the basic fabric softener dosage
according to how soft you would like
your laundry to be.
Changing one basic dosage affects all
three dosage quantities in the same
way.
Notes
■
Reduce the basic dosage if using a
very concentrated detergent.
■
If large amounts of foam are
repeatedly created during washing,
please check your basic dosage and
dosage quantity settings.
Certain types of liquid detergent can
also create excessive amounts of
foam. If your basic dosage and
dosage quantity settings are correct,
we advise you to use a different
detergent.
