Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2011110246A1] The invention relates to a method for controlling a dosing system which can be positioned inside a dishwasher, comprising a cartridge filled with at least one preparation, a dosing device which can be coupled to the cartridge. Said dosing device comprises at least one temperature sensor and a conductance sensor (5), said temperature sensor and/or the conductance sensor can be arranged in and/or on and/or outside said dosing device, and release means for releasing a preparation from the cartridge into the inside of the dishwasher. Said claimed method consists of the following steps (a) at least one first temperature T1 is measured inside the dishwasher by means of the temperature sensor, (b) the resistance R on the conductance sensor is measured, and steps (a.) and (b.) can take place in any order, and when a defined temperature Tref is exceeded and when a predetermined reference resistance Rref is not achieved, the presence of water on the conductance sensor is signaled, at least one volume V1 of a first preparation is released from the cartridge into the inside of the dishwasher.
