on the amount of clothes and water temperature.

The lamp flashes from the time water starts filling the tub until the water temperature
detection is complete. The measurement starts as soon as the tub is filled. The time required to
measure the temperature is 5 minutes.
On:
ECONAVI is activated. If the water temperature measured meets the temperature requirement,
the lamp lights up and stays lit up until the end of the cycle.

ECONAVI is not activated. If conditions do not meet the requirements, ECONAVI does not
start.

ECONAVI might not operate correctly under the following conditions:
●
The tub was filled with water before you started running the washing machine.

The wash/rinse/spin settings are customised.

Even when ECONAVI is not activated, the washing machine runs with the same sequence of stages.
