“Lowest estimated use” compares the midpoint of each cycle's cost range at the entered rates; it does not compare cleaning performance. Cost is per completed cycle and excludes fixed monthly utility charges. See methodology and limitations →

When will it finish?

Start the cycle and use the appliance's displayed estimate. The current documentation does not provide a reliable fixed duration for these programs.

Why the number can move

Load sensing, water temperature, an extra rinse or presoak, and load balance can change the wash time.

Check the exact display. The full model number and selected options matter. Consult your current manual if your panel labels differ from this table.
