Ø If required, change basic dosages for detergent and softener:
The basic dosage amount to be set corresponds:
For detergents – to the manufacturer’s recommendation for
normal soiling and to the particular water hardness.
For softeners – to the manufacturer’s recommendation for
medium softness and to the particular water hardness.
This information can be found on the package label of the
detergent/softener or ask the manufacturer directly.
To determine the existing water hardness, use a test strip or
check with your water utility company.

Here is an example of the detergent dosage on a package
label:
²
– Factory setting of the basic dosage: for detergent 75 ml and
for softener 36 ml.
– In the case of more concentrated detergents reduce the
basic dosage amount.
Ø If intensive foaming occurs repeatedly during washing, please
check the basic dosage setting and dosage strength.
Furthermore, some liquid detergents may have a tendency to
excessive foaming. If the basic dosage settings and dosage
strengths are correct, it is recommended to use a different
liquid detergent.
Change basic dosage amount. ~ Page 38
Ø If required, convert i-Dos iIô dispenser contents.
