15. CONSUMPTION VALUES


Stated values are obtained in laboratory conditions with relevant stand-
ards. Different causes can change the data: the quantity and type of
laundry and ambient temperature. Water pressure, the supply voltage
and the temperature of inlet water may also affect the washing pro-
gramme duration.

Technical specifications may be changed without prior notice to improve


the quality of product.

During the washing programme, the Prosense technology can vary the
wash duration and the consumption values. For more details see 'The
Prosense load detection' paragraph in 'Daily Use' chapter.
