Dosing Aid

1. Detergent dosing values

Check and adjust one of the preset dosing values (Detergent calibration)

Suppose you want to check and adjust the preset dosing value for all the programmes belonging to the “Generic detergent group”.

Important: during this phase do not consider the local water hardness and the habitual soil level of your laundry.

Simply follow the instruction below.

This function will suggest to you the correct amount of detergent for your wash load. By using the Dosing Aid you avoid detergent overdosing and • save detergent

• protect the environment

• protect sensitive skin

The concentration of detergents available on the market differs considerably. This is why you have to adjust your washing

machine settings according to your detergents.

Your washing machine comes with 3 preset dosing values for 3 different types of detergents (generic – delicates – dark colours).

Each detergent type is associated to a group of programmes (see table on the right). Each of the 3 preset values should be

adjusted as to match the dosing recommendation reported on the package of the detergent/s that you intend to use for each

specific group.

A - Check

First Check on the package of your generic detergent which dosing amount is recommended for medium water hardness (or

medium/soft) and medium soil level (or medium/light). Please use this value when you reach step 3 of the procedure described in

the following section (see B - Adjust).

Before the first use...

1. Compare the dosing recommendation of the detergents you use with the dosing values preset in the washing machine. Adjust them if there is a mismatch.

Make sure that the Dosing Aid function can work optimally.

2. Check and eventually adjust the water hardness preset in the washing machine.
