Washing Environmentally And Economically; Energy And Water Consumption; Detergent; Additional Options (Soak, Pre-Wash, Intensive) - Miele W 2209I Operating Instructions Manual

Energy and water consumption

– Water consumption and energy
usage are determined by the size of
the load.
– Use the Automatic or the Quick wash
programme for smaller amounts of
laundry.
– When smaller amounts of laundry are
washed in the Cottons programmes,
the automatic load recognition
system will reduce the amount of
water, time and energy used. This
may mean that the programme
duration alters during the course of
the wash programme.
– Instead of the Cottons 95°C
programme, use the Cottons 60°C
programme together with the
Intensive additional option. This will
give an energy saving of between
35% and 45%. The programme
duration will be longer. This
combination is sufficient for most
levels of soiling. For stubborn or old
stains, use the Soak option.

Washing environmentally and economically

Detergent

– Do not exceed the amount of
detergent recommended by the
manufacturer on the packaging.
– Reduce the amount of detergent with
smaller loads (approx.
the amount recommended can be
used when washing a half load).
Additional options
(Soak, Pre-wash, Intensive)
Select:
A wash programme without any
additional options for light to normal
soiling where there are no obvious
marks.
A wash programme together with the
Intensive option for normal to heavily
soiled laundry with visible staining.
– Use the additional option Soak
instead of Pre-wash . If Soak is
followed immediately by a main wash
the same suds are used.

When drying with a tumble dryer

– Selecting the highest possible spin
speed for the wash programme will
save energy when drying in a tumble
dryer afterwards.
