No. Follow the textile and product instructions rather than adding conditioner automatically. Some functional fabrics or finishes have different care requirements from ordinary cotton.
Understanding this situation
Conditioner is also separate from the detergent responsible for the main cleaning process. Omitting it does not mean the machine cannot wash, and increasing it is not a remedy for detergent residue or poor rinsing.
A useful next step
Use the designated compartment only when the chosen product and garments permit it, respecting the maximum mark. If performance changes after a conditioner switch, record that fact. Avoid treating an altered garment feel as proof that the washer has a mechanical fault.
Manuals and supporting guidance
Model-specific instructions take priority. These references support the practical principles discussed here; they do not diagnose your appliance.
