Adjustment of the displayed washing time
Advanced technology allows the appliance to sense the amount of laundry and add the required
amount of water during the washing process. Depending on the washing load, washing time can
be longer or shorter and the time displayed will be adjusted accordingly.
Moreover, displayed washing time may change due to differences in inlet water temperature. At low
inlet water temperatures, washing time can be longer; at higher temperatures, it can be shorter.
Unevenly distributed laundry or lumps of laundry in the washing machine drum can cause problems
such as vibration and noisy operation. The appliance can sense such lumps and will try to redistribute
the laundry. Smaller loads (e.g. one towel, one sweater, one bathrobe etc.) or clothes made of
materials with special geometrical properties are virtually impossible to distribute evenly across the
washing machine drum (slippers, large items etc.). This results in several attempts to redistribute
the laundry, which in turn leads to longer program duration.
