The Amica washing machine displays time remaining, but the cycle finishes much earlier or later than expected.

Safety first: Unplug the washer before performing any internal checks.

• 1. Use appropriate load size: Avoid very small or very large loads, as these can confuse load sensing.
• 2. Check drain and spin performance: Ensure the machine drains and spins properly; clean the pump filter and check hoses.
• 3. Verify heating: If water is not heating correctly, cycles may extend. Test the heater and NTC as described earlier.
• 4. Accept adaptive timing: Some variation in displayed time is normal, as the Amica control adjusts for load and water temperature.
