longer time.
You will save energy and water by loading your household appliance to the full capacity indicated by the manufacturer for the appropriate
programmes.

Time given is an estimate only. It can di󰀨er from the actual washing time depending on temperature, water pressure and quantity of
laundry loaded. The time is automatically updated during the wash cycle and it is normal for it to stop or skip.
NOTE:
NOTE:
Use detergent or fabric softener if necessary. Detergent required, without which washing will be ine󰀨ec-
tive.
