VAS Vibration Absorbing System
As the washing drum starts to spin, if the control system detects that the load
is out of balance it will interrupt the spinning action once or more. The appli-
ance tries thereby to distribute the load more evenly inside the washing drum.
As the spin speed increases, if necessary the drum is actively balanced at all
spin speed levels. In this way, during the spinning process draining is opti-
mized whilst being as gentle as possible on the washing and the appliance.
Water and energy economy
During the first few minutes of a programme running, sensors automatically
determine the type and the size of the load being washed.
Water levels are then optimally adjusted to the wash load so that only the
strict amount of water needed is used.
Turbidity sensor
In addition to the water and energy economy feature, the amount of water
needed is optimized by a turbidity sensor.
With the help of the turbidity sensor, the control system detects the degree of
dirtiness of the soapy water at any time in the cycle and from this determines
the amount of water needed for the rest of the cycle.
For example, if only a low degree of dirtiness is detected during the first rins-
ing cycle, then the amount of water used for rinsing during the second rinsing
cycle is reduced.
Automatic energy-saving stand-by
The appliance is equipped with automatic stand-by to avoid consuming ener-
gy unnecessarily.
All displays go out within minutes of a programme finishing. Energy consump-
tion is reduced to an absolute minimum. The safety functions, however, re-
main activated.
