AutoDose

The AutoDose system has 3 modes:

  1. Standard Mode - Allows you to store liquid detergent and softener in the AutoDose compartments, and to toggle on/off auto dosing of detergent and/or softener. 2.* Dual-Detergent Mode - Allows you to store 2 different types of liquid detergents in the 2 AutoDose compartments, and toggle on/off or switch between them. 3.* Link Detergent Mode - Allows you to store 1 type of liquid detergent in both AutoDose compartments, and toggle on/off auto dosing of the liquid detergent.

ELECTROLUX EWF1141SEWA - The AutoDose system has 3 modes: - 1

(*) By factory default, the appliance operates in basic Standard Mode.

To change configuration to Dual-Detergent Mode or Link Detergent Mode, you need to complete the setup on the mobile application "Electrolux Life".

Advanced functions like fine-tuning can be enabled on the app to make them available on the control panel.

** Apps and services are subject to change without notice.

The pre-set dosages are 50ml for detergent tank and 40ml for fabric softener tank: the optimal configuration to meet majority of use conditions.

However, under extreme conditions (very soft or very hard water) and particular types of detergent (such as super concentrated), we recommend adjusting the pre-set dosage by following the instructions given on detergent and fabric softener containers: e.g., when using super concentrated detergent, you may need to reduce the pre-set dosage considerably.

If the washing results are not satisfactory or there is too much foam during washing, you may need to change this setting.

Check the detergent product instructions to identify the right dosage considering a normal laundry soil level, the actual water hardness, and the additional dosage suggested for larger loads.

  1. Identifying the water hardness level: Hard water can reduce the effectiveness of the detergent, for this reason detergent manufacturers recommend adjusting the dosage based on water hardness level. Check the water hardness level in your area. The levels are generally indicated as: soft, medium, and hard. If necessary, please contact your local water authority to check the water hardness in your area.
  2. Identifying the customized detergent dosage: Check the label on the detergent/fabric softener container suggesting the quantity to use. This suggestion is measured combining three different factors:

• Water hardness level; - Normal soil level; - Rated capacity of the appliance (e.g., maximum load capacity 9 kg). If the rated capacity on the product container refers to lower capacity appliances, the customized dosage should be increased.

6. WASHING HINTS

6.1 Sorting The Laundry

Follow the wash code symbols on each garment label and the manufacturer's washing instructions. Sort the laundry as follows: whites, coloureds, synthetics, delicates, woollens.

6.2 Temperatures

Temp Soil level
90°CFor normally soiled white cottons and linen (e.g. teacloths, towels, tablecloths, sheets...).
60°C50°CFor normally soiled, colourfast garments (e.g. shirts, night dresses, pajamas...) in linen, cotton or synthetic fibres and for lightly soiled white cotton (e.g. underwear).
40°C30°C ColdFor delicate items (e.g. net curtains), mixed laundry including synthetic fibres and woollens bearing the label pure new wool, machine washable, non-shrink.

6.3 Before Loading The Laundry

• Make sure that no metal objects are left in the laundry (e.g. coin, hair clips, safety pins, pins).

Line drawing of a shirt and pants with buttons and accessories.

- Button up pillowcases, close zip fasteners, hooks and poppers. Tie any belts or long tapes.

Illustration of a hand holding a small object with a pencil, showing an upward arrow.

- Wash bras, pantyhose and other delicates in a mesh laundry bag, which you can purchase from your supermarket.

Line drawing of a woven basket filled with eggs, with a lid open.

  • Make sure that you wash lint collectors separately from lint producers.
  • Never wash whites and coloured fabrics together. Whites may lose their "whiteness" in the wash.
  • New coloured items may run in the first wash; they should therefore be washed separately the first time.
  • Remove persistent stains before washing.
  • Rub particularly soiled areas with a special detergent or detergent paste. Treat curtains with special care. Remove hooks or tie them up in a bag or a net.

6.4 Maximum Loads

Recommended loads are indicated in the program charts on page 12.

General rules:

Clothes LoadQ uantity
Cotton, linendrum full but not too tightly packed;
Syntheticsdrum no more than half full;
Delicate fabrics and woollensdrum no more than one third full.

Washing a maximum load makes the most efficient use of water and energy. For heavily soiled laundry, reduce the load size.

6.5 Removing Stains

ELECTROLUX EWF1141SEWA - Removing Stains - 1

WARNING!

Pre-treatment sprays and stain remover can damage plastic components on your washing machine.

If you use pre-treatment sprays or stain removers, apply them to the clothing well away from your washing machine.

Stubborn stains may not be removed by just water and detergent. It is therefore advisable to treat them prior to washing.

Blood: treat fresh stains with cold water. For dried stains, soak overnight in water with a special detergent then rub in the soap and water.

Oil based paint: moisten with benzine stain remover, lay the garment on a soft cloth and dab the stain; treat several times.

Dried grease stains: moisten with turpentine, lay the garment on a soft surface and dab the stain with the fingertips and a cotton cloth.

Rust: oxalic acid dissolved in hot water or a rust removing product used in cold water. Be careful with rust stains which are not recent since the cellulose structure will already have been damaged and the fabric tends to hole.

Mould stains: treat with bleach, rinse well (whites and fast coloureds only).

Grass: soap lightly and treat with bleach (whites and fast coloureds only).

Ball point pen and glue: moisten with acetone (*), lay the garment on a soft cloth and dab the stain.

Lipstick: moisten with acetone (*) as above, then treat stains with methylated spirits. Remove any residual marks from white fabrics with bleach.

Red wine: soak in water and detergent, rinse and treat with acetic or citric acid, then rinse. Treat any residual marks with bleach.

Ink: depending on the type of ink, moisten the fabric first with acetone (*), then with acetic acid; treat any residual marks on white fabrics with bleach and then rinse thoroughly.

Tar stains: first treat with stain remover, methylated spirits or benzine, then rub with detergent paste.

(*) do not use acetone on artificial silk.

6.6 Detergents Type And Quantity Of Detergent

Low sudsing detergent is required for this washing machine to prevent oversudsing problems, unsatisfactory washing result and harm to the machine.

Low sudsing detergents designed for front load washing machines are labelled "Front Loading", "high efficiency", "HE", such as Cold Power for Front Loaders or "Matic".

Do not use wrong types of detergent, such as Top Loading, Handwash detergent or Soap-Based products in your frontload washing machine. This can result in excessive suds, longer cycle time, low spin speeds, poor rinsing and overloading of the motor.

Quantity of detergent to be used

The choice of detergent and use of correct quantities not only affects your wash performance, but also helps to avoid waste and protect the environment.

Although biodegradable detergents contain substances which in large quantities can upset the delicate balance of nature.

The choice and quantity of detergent will depend on ;

  • type of fabric (delicates, woollens, cottons, etc.); • the colour of clothes ;
  • size of the load ;
  • degree of soil ;
  • wash temperature; and
  • hardness of the water used.

Water hardness is classified by so-called "degrees" of hardness.

Information on hardness of the water in your area can be obtained from the relevant water supply company, or from your local authority.

You may have to try using the detergent quantity as per manufacturers' instructions then compare the wash result to the list below and adjust the amount of detergent for your future washes accordingly.

Not enough detergent causes:

• the washload to turn grey, - greasy clothes.

Too much detergent causes:

  • oversudsing, • reduced washing effect,
  • inadequate rinsing.

Use less detergent if:

• you are washing a small load, • the laundry is lightly soiled, • large amounts of foam during washing.
