What's Miele CapDosing and how do you use it?

With Miele CapDosing detergent and fabric softener capsules, you can give your favorite wool or silk laundry a special treatment. Each capsule contains exactly enough detergent for a specific fabric. If you have a wool sweater or silk blouse, you can use the wool or silk cycle in combination with a capsule for wool or silk. This keeps your laundry in good condition for longer. In addition to capsules for wool or silk, Miele has capsules for gym clothes, outdoor clothes, and more. This way, you always have the right amount of detergent for your type of clothing.

With a Miele washing machine with CapDosing, you simply put 1 capsule in the hatch of the detergent drawer for each cycle. After that, tap the 'Cap' sensor button on the display and select the correct capsule with the arrow. You can now choose a wash cycle for a fabric like wool and the washing machine does the rest. Keep in mind that there's space for 1 capsule per cycle. Do you use a capsule for detergent? Add your own fabric softener via the drawer above the hatch. Do you use a fabric softener capsule? Add your detergent separately.

Do you have a Miele TwinDos washing machine? You can still use CapDosing capsules for specific types of laundry. Make sure you switch off the automatic TwinDos dosing via the display when you use CapDosing. You can read how to do this in the manual for your new Miele washing machine.

Do you prefer to use your own detergent? No problem. You can put this in the left compartment of the drawer. This compartment is suitable for both liquid detergent and powder detergent. If your clothes are very dirty, you can use the right compartment for a prewash. This way, you simply use the drawer as you would with any other washing machine. For your own fabric softener, just open the CapDosing hatch and add it where the flower or asterisk (*) is. You can read how to adjust your display to this in the manual of your washing machine.
