At just 820mm tall and 475mm deep (530mm including the door, buttons and hose at the back), it fits tight spaces without needing the top removed for installation. A brushless inverter motor drives a 1400rpm spin cycle, with touch controls and an LED display managing a full range of wash and dry programmes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSteam Hygiene is the WWPB8502IW's signature technology, using the natural power of steam to help remove 99.99% of bacteria while softening and gently hygienising fabrics. FreshCare+ periodically releases steam and tumbles the load for up to 6 hours after a cycle ends, so laundry doesn't need to be unloaded immediately. A Steam Refresh programme quickly lifts odours and smooths creases, leaving clothes damp and ready to hang.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhirlpool appliances are distributed in Australia by Arisit Pty Limited, and the WWPB8502IW carries a 5-year manufacturer's warranty on parts and labour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSteam Hygiene:\u003c\/strong\u003e uses the natural power of steam to help remove 99.99% of bacteria (tested by SGS, report SHES240801641471) while softening and gently hygienising fabrics.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFreshCare+:\u003c\/strong\u003e periodically releases steam and tumbles the load for up to 6 hours after the cycle ends, so laundry doesn't need to be unloaded immediately.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSteam Refresh:\u003c\/strong\u003e a quick programme that lifts odours and smooths creases, leaving clothes damp and ready to hang.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompact Design:\u003c\/strong\u003e an 820mm height suits built-under installations without removing the top of the unit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSlim Depth:\u003c\/strong\u003e a 475mm depth and 8kg wash capacity help it fit into tighter laundry spaces.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAutoStart:\u003c\/strong\u003e press and hold Start\/Pause for 3 seconds to automatically detect the load (up to 8kg) and begin a wash cycle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAntimicrobial detergent drawer:\u003c\/strong\u003e the detergent drawer and surrounding bellow are treated to resist 99% of bacteria (tested by TÜV SÜD, Chinese Academy of Sciences).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColour \/ Finishes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhite, Dark Grey Door \u003c\/strong\u003e— WWPB8502IW\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProgrammes \/ Functions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMixed 55': \u003c\/strong\u003eFor washing lightly to normally soiled garments in cotton, linen, synthetic fibres and mixed fibres.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpeed 15': \u003c\/strong\u003eFor quick washing of a small load or lightly soiled garments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCotton: \u003c\/strong\u003eFor washing normally soiled cotton garments; at 40°C this is the standard cotton programme and the most efficient for water and energy consumption.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSteam Refresh: \u003c\/strong\u003eFor refreshing clothing and relaxing fibres.
