When you set this option, we recommend that you decrease the quantity of the laundry. It is possible to keep the full
load but the washing results can be unsatisfactory. Recommended load: cotton: 4 kg, synthetics and delicates: 1,5 kg.
Consumption values
The data of this table are approximate. Different causes can change the data:
the quantity and type of laundry, the water and ambient temperature.
At programme start the display shows the duration programme for the maximum load capacity.
During the washing phase the programme duration is automatically calculated
and can be greatly reduced if the laundry load is lower than the maximum load
capacity (e.g. Cotton 60°C, maximum load capacity 8 kg, the programme duration exceeds 2 hours; real load 1 kg, the programme duration don’t reach 1
hour).
When the appliance is calculating the real programme duration a dot blinks in
the display.
