Bauknecht Extended cycle time / control adaptation

Washer takes too long to complete a cycle

Possible Causes

Low water pressure, unbalanced loads causing repeated spin attempts, excessive foam, heater not reaching temperature due to scale or low power

Safety first: Ensure stable power and water supply.

Check water pressure: Verify strong flow at the washer tap. Clean inlet filters if partially blocked.
Avoid overloading: Do not exceed the rated capacity. Overloading can cause long balancing phases.
Descale heater: Run a hot maintenance wash with descaler to improve heating efficiency.

Note: Modern Bauknecht washers adjust time dynamically based on load and conditions; slight variations are normal.
