Programme progress 3 • The programme progress display shows the programme step that is currently being performed. • The multi-display indicates the estimated time remaining (in minutes) until the end of the programme. During the washing cycle the remaining time may be increased or stay the same for a while as the programme adjusts itself to different conditions (e. g. type and quantity of laundry, out of balance spin detection, special rinses, etc.).
