Starting the programme

- With a longer Delay start time, the drum will rotate occasionally to untangle the laundry.
This will loosen the laundry.
- The programme starts.
Programme running time/Time left estimation
The programme running time depends on the quantity of laundry, the type of fabric, the re-
sidual moisture in the laundry and the water hardness. The displayed programme running
time for drying-level programmes can therefore vary or "jump". The tumble dryer's elec-
tronic module adapts during the ongoing drying programme. The displayed programme
running time becomes more and more accurate.
When using the programmes for the first time, the displayed time sometimes deviates sig-
nificantly from the real time left. The difference between the estimated and achieved time
becomes smaller if the corresponding programme is run more often. If different load sizes
are dried in one programme, the time left display can only show an approximate time.
Laundry items and fabrics can wear out unnecessarily.
Avoid overdrying the laundry.
Energy saving
After a programmed time, the indicators dim. The Start/Stop sensor control flashes slowly.
Touch the Start/Stop sensor control to switch the indicators back on.

Energy saving for the indicators will not affect a running programme.
- Before the programme finishes, the laundry is cooled.
