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).

* Reference programmes for Energy Label.

** Automatic adaption of programme duration after detection of wash load.

*** To reduce the water temperature, some cold water is added at the end of the main wash cycle before the water is drained.

“Easy ironing” button

•Reduces creasing by an increased water quantity and a very gentle spin.

“Rinse hold” button

•The laundry remains in the last rinse water without progressing to the final spin cycle to avoid creasing and prevent colours from changing.
