Fit of the reddened, composite SEDs using FASTWIND models to the BVI_cJHK_s photometry, setting the amount of extinction E(4405 − 5495) as a free parameter (red) and fixed to the value of the observed band-integrated equivalent E(B − V) (blue). The former method provided the best-fit model yielding d = 3.52 ± 0.08 kpc, E(4405 − 5495) = 3.66 ± 0.06 mag, R₅₄₉₅ = 3.26 ± 0.04 and A₅₄₉₅ = 11.9 ± 0.1 mag.
