Spin speed: The spin speed can be changed. Delicates can be spun at a lower
spin speed. The lower the spin speed, the longer the drying time.
Delayed start: For using cheap-rate electricity (setting range of up to 24hours).
The programme starts automatically when the set time is reached.
OptiTime: If a programme end time has been selected, OptiTime calculates the
most energy-efficient programme that can be carried out in the time remaining to
programme end. OptiTime reduces the washing temperature, while the washing
performance is maintained. The more time is available for washing, the more the
washing temperature can be reduced. If higher wash temperatures with a germkilling effect are needed, a corresponding programme without the OptiTime function must be selected.
Separate rinsing / Separate spinning: The programme starts at the desired parts
of the programme and the programme sequence is shortened (see page 16).
