Suds cooldown

With this feature, additional water flows into the washer at the end of the main wash, to cool down the suds.

The cooldown feature kicks in with the 95°C and 75°C programs.

Cooldown should be activated if:

the drain hose is hooked over a basin or sink - this will help prevent scalding.

the drain pipes in the building do not comply with DIN 1986.

The factory setting for the Cooldown option is Off.
