Protection of the environment/Hints and tips

Your washing machine uses water, energy
and detergent efficiently. This protects our
environment and reduces your household
costs.
To use your washing machine in an efficient
and environmentally friendly manner:
• Do not exceed recommended loads.
Cottons and Coloureds ....................5.5 kg
Easy Care ............................................2.5 kg
Delicates/Silk......................................1.0 kg
Woollens..............................................1.5 kg
Automatic load sensing reduces the water
and energy consumption, as well as the
programme duration, for smaller loads.
Packaging and discarded appliances
Environmentally friendly disposal
Exercise care when draining the hot water.
Do not climb onto the washing machine.
Follow the installation instructions.
Danger of suffocation!
Keep children away from shipping carton
and packaging components. Danger of
suffocation from folding cartons and plastic
film.
Danger!
On out-of-service appliances, unplug mains
plug. Cut off power chord and discard with
mains plug. Break the lock on the lid as this
will prevent children from locking themselves
in and suffocating.
• Instead of "Cottons 90°C", select the
"60°C" programme + the "Intensive"*
pushbutton. The extended washing time of
this 60°C programme achieves a cleaning
result comparable to that of the 90°C
programme, but uses considerably less
energy.
• Do not use Prewash* for lightly to normally
soiled washing.
• Use detergent according to Pollution
index, amount of laundry and water
hardness and follow the manufacturer's
directions.
* Depending upon the model.
• Dispose of packaging in an environmentally
friendly manner.
• This appliance meets European guideline
2002/96/EG for discarded electrical and
electronic appliances (waste electrical and
electronic equipment - WEEE).
• The guideline provides an EU wide valid
framework for recycling of discarded appliances.
