Caring for the environment

Disposal of packaging material
The cardboard box and packing materials
protect the machine during shipping. They
have been designed to be biodegradable
and recyclable.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags,
etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of
the reach of children.

Disposal of your old machine

Old electrical machines often still contain
valuable materials. However, they also con-
tain harmful substances that were essential
for the proper functioning and safe use of
the equipment. Handling these materials im-
properly or disposing of them in your house-
hold waste can be harmful to your health
and the environment. Therefore, please do
not dispose of your old machine with regu-
lar household waste.

Energy saving tips
Energy and water consumption
– Water consumption and energy usage are
determined by the size of the load.
To make the most out of your machine
load the maximum dry load for the pro-
gram you are using.
Detergent
– Do not exceed the amounts of detergent
recommended by the manufacturer on the
packaging.
– Reduce the amount of detergent for
smaller loads.
When drying with a tumble dryer
Selecting the highest possible spin speed
for the wash program will save energy when
drying in a tumble dryer afterwards.
