Prewash cycle increases programme duration approximately 15 min. Consumption values were measured in normalized
conditions in compliance with Standard IEC 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 similarly 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.
Add the detergent as described in the programme
table or in the chapter “Detergents and Additives”
in the booklet.
