Tips on saving energy
To save energy, money and time,
Bosch recommends the following:
- Drain the laundry thoroughly!
Before drying, spin the laundry
thoroughly in the washing
machine. Use the highest possible
spin speed for the type of laundry!
Higher spin speeds reduce the
drying time and the energy
consumption.
- Use optimum load!
Use maximum recommended
loads. However, do not exceed
loads.
- Clean filter!
Clean the filter before and after
each drying process
(see page 18).
- Ventilate the room!
During the drying process provide
an adequate supply of fresh air.
- Do not dry unsuitable materials!
Do not dry rubberized or air tight
items.

Drying tips

In principle, the following applies to all
drying programs:
- To ensure a uniform drying result,
sort the laundry according to fabric
type and drying program.
- Fasten zippers, hooks and eyes.
Fasten loose belts, apron strings,
etc..
- Do not overdry easy care laundry
risk of wrinkling! Leave laundry to
dry in the air.
- Do not iron laundry immediately
after drying. Place the laundry in a
pile for a short while. Residual
moisture will then be distributed
uniformly.
- Knitted textiles (e.g. T shirts,
cotton jersey laundry) often shrink
when dried for the first time. Do
not use the "Very dry/Extra dry"
program.
