Time remaining on display jumps up or down unexpectedly during cycle.

Safety: Normal behavior in many cases; no immediate hazard.

Steps:

• Check load: Ensure the drum is not overloaded and items are evenly distributed.
• Detergent: Use correct dosage to avoid excess foam, which can trigger extra rinses.
• Monitor: If time changes are extreme and cycles never complete, investigate related faults (drain, heating, sensors) as described in other entries.

Note: Minor time adjustments are normal as the machine optimizes the cycle.
