12.8 VAS Vibration Absorbing System
As the washing drum starts to spin, if the control unit detects that the load is
out of balance it will interrupt the spinning action once or more. In this case,
the appliance tries to improve the distribution of the wash load in the washing
drum.
When spinning, at all spin speeds the load is, where necessary, actively
balanced in the washing drum, whereby the hollow vanes are filled with the
necessary quantity of water. This ensures optimal care and draining of the
washing.
12.9 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.
12.10 Automatic energy-saving stand-by
The appliance is equipped with automatic energy-saving stand-by to avoid
consuming energy unnecessarily.
All displays go out within minutes of a programme finishing. Energy consump-
tion is reduced to an absolute minimum. The safety functions, however, remain
activated.
