Abstract (en)

[origin: DE19741023A1] The machine features a sensor (17) for registering a signal which corresponds to the actual amount of detergent introduced into the compartment (11), and for passing on the signal to the microprocessor control (MC). The control incorporates a comparator for comparing the actual amount to the target amount of detergent calculated for the prevailing program. A signalling unit (e.g. a display light) is activated by the microprocessor control (MC) when the target amount is achieved.
