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. * The remaining time indicator can deviate from the values in the table, because it takes into account the household conditions applicable at that time. **

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.

*** Reference Programme for Energy Label.

Push the button(s) of any option(s) desired - the respective indication lamp lights up. When the combination of programme and additional option(s) is not possible, the indication lights switch off automatically. Unsuitable combinations of options are deselected automatically.

• With modified temperature profile and a slightly

prologned washing duration, the optimum combination of excellent washingresult and even lower energy consumption is achieved.

granular dirt) sensible. Increases the cycle time by approximately 15 min.

and “Daily load” programmes to make ironing easier.

• This option is particularly suitable for areas with very

soft water, washing baby linen and helps people with allergies.

“Rinse hold” button

• The laundry remains in the last rinse water without

pregressing to the final spin cycle to avoid creasing and prevent colours from changing.

• This option is particularly recommended for the programmes “Synthetics”, “Daily load” and “Delicates”.

• It is particularly useful if you want to postpone spinning to a later time, or if you want to drain only.

• If you select “Rinse hold” do not leave items to soak for too long. Note: The programme stops to “Rinse hold” at the time the “Rinse hold” lights in the preogramme sequence indication is on. The indication lamp next to the “Start/Pause” button flashes.

The programme sequence indicator shows the current programme phase, running from left to right through Wash, Rinse, Spin/Drain. The time display shows the remaining programme time.

As long as a wash programme is running, the door remains locked and must on no account be forced open.
