Stated values are obtained in laboratory conditions with relevant standards. Different pa‐
rameters can change the data, for example: the quantity of laundry, the type of laundry
and the ambient conditions. The initial moisture content of the laundry, the water type,
the supply voltage and if you change the default setting of a programme may also affect
the energy use and the duration of the drying programme.
