Skip the laundry math with just the right amount of detergent.
i-DOS removes all the guesswork in determining the right amount of detergent for washing a load. Once this automatic dosing feature is activated, your Bosch washer will detect types of fabric, load volumes and degree of soiling, then adjust accordingly. You can save detergent and water, by determining amounts right down to the last millilitre.
Be kind to the planet, and your wallet.
Too much detergent can lead to increased water usage and energy consumption. Fortunately, the i-DOS automatic dosing technology optimises Bosch washing machines to save up to 38% detergent* and 10litres water** per cycle! The world, your wallet and your wardrobe are all a little safer.

Less scratchy skin and fabrics.
We might use more detergent than necessary, especially when our laundry is extra dirty. This leaves soap residue on clothes, and triggers irritation and rashes. Not fun for those with sensitive skin. Excess suds trapped in fibres make your clothes stiff, dry, and prone to damage. Now with the i-DOS, your Bosch washing machine always uses just the right amount of detergent. Clean clothes, clean skin.
One single topup of detergent, and many washes later.
Top up just once for multiple washes. Bosch i-DOS washing machines come with two separate chambers. One stores 1.3 litres of liquid detergent, another stores 0.5 litres of liquid softener. Simply fill up the chambers when the alert comes on. You won’t need to do another refill until many loads later.
