Environmentally Friendly Washing - Miele WWB 020 Operating Instructions Manual

Environmentally friendly washing

Energy and water consumption
– To get the most out of your machine,
load the maximum dry load for the
program you are using.
The energy and water consumption
will then be the lowest in relation to
the size of the load.
– When smaller amounts of laundry are
washed, the automatic​ load
recognition system will reduce the
amount of water and energy used.
– Use the Express program for smaller,
lightly soiled loads.
– Modern detergents make it possible
to wash at lower temperatures (e.g.
20°C). Using the corresponding
temperature settings will save energy.
– To maintain the hygiene of the
machine, carry out a hot wash above
60°C at regular intervals. The
 indicator will come on to remind
you to carry out a hot wash.

Detergent consumption
– Do not exceed the amounts of
detergent recommended on the
packaging.
– Adjust the dosage to the level of
soiling of the laundry.
– Reduce the amount of detergent with
smaller loads (approx. ⅓ less than
the amount recommended can be
used when washing a half load).
When drying with a tumble dryer
Select the highest possible spin speed
for the wash program to save energy in
the subsequent tumble dryer cycle.
