Abstract: A prediction method includes acquisition step, prediction step, determination step, and processing step. In acquisition step, parameters for a drying operation are acquired. In prediction step, based on the acquired parameters, a drying time required for the drying operation is predicted by a first prediction method. In determination step, when the restart of the drying operation is detected while the drying operation is stopped, whether the first prediction method performed in prediction step is applicable is determined. In processing step, when the first prediction method is determined to be applicable, the first prediction method is continued and when the first prediction method is determined not to be applicable, predetermined processing is performed.

Abstract: A cleaning appliance and method for operating a cleaning appliance having a suds container and a rotatable drum, wherein the drum is arranged in the suds container, and wherein an inside of a drum casing of the drum is smooth, apart from a plurality of nubs, for causing the cleaning liquid in the drum to execute a wave motion during a cleaning process. The cleaning appliance has a feed unit and a drive. The method includes supplying a feed signal to the feed unit, wherein the feed signal causes a cleaning liquid to be fed into the suds container until a predetermined target fill level is reached. The target fill level causes the textiles to float inside the drum. The method includes supplying a motion signal to the drive when the target fill level is reached in order to cause a rotational motion of the drum.
