Consumption values were measured in normalized conditions in compliance with standard IEC/EN 60 456. Consumption data in the home may
vary with respect to the values in the table in relation to the water supply pressure and temperature, the load and the type of wash. Water and
energy consumption refer to the default setting of the programmes; selecting special options or modifying spin speed or temperature will change
the consumption data.
The programme duration may differ from the values indicated above as it depends on the operation conditions applicable at that
time (see also “Troubleshooting Guide” in your Instructions for Use).
* To reduce the water temperature, some cold water is added at the end of the main wash cycle, before the pump drains the water out.
