121 Programme To Use
Cle
an the Filters before every cycle.
Cy
cle times are a guide only.
The actual cycle time duration will
depend upon: size of load, fabric
type, amount of water in fabric at the
start, filter cleanliness and ambient
temperature. DO NOT OPEN DOOR DURING
CYCLE as this will extend cycle time.
Load dryness is sensed toward the end
of the drying cycle and the remaining
time displayed may not reflect actual
duration. THIS IS NOT A FAULT.
