Product Features

Construction	Freestanding
Built-in machines have a cabinet door attached to the front of them so that they look like the rest of your kitchen. Freestanding machines can be seen and the machine can be placed in any position in your kitchen.
Drum size (kg)	6
Energy Efficiency	A
The more efficient the product, the less energy it needs and the more you get for your money. ‘A’ rated products are the most efficient and ‘G’ rated products are the least efficient. The most efficient products can now be identified by new ‘A’ and ‘A*’ ratings.
Type of Loading	Front Loading
This refers to where you can load the washing into the machine. Front loading is when the door is on the front of the machine and top loading is when you put washing in through an opening at the top of the machine. When purchasing a top loading machine, make sure you have enough room to open the hatch (top loading machines cannot be placed under a worktop). When looking for front loading machines, take note of which way the door opens so that you can make sure you have enough room to take washing in and out of the machine.
Noise Level in Decibels	60
Measures how loud the machine is. For quieter machines, look for models with a noise level under 60 decibles.
Number of Programmes	18
The number of different programmes available on this machine that you can choose from

A mechanism that makes it difficult for children to open the machine during operation.
Half-Load	Yes
When washing only a few items, the half-load feature uses less water which will save time, energy and of course water.
