Washing Environmentally And Economically; Energy And Water Consumption; Detergent; Choosing The Correct Extra Options (Soak, Pre-Wash, Intensive) - Miele W 2652 WPS Operating Instructions Manual

Energy and water consumption

– Water consumption and energy
usage are determined by the size of
the load.
– Use the Automatic and Quick wash
programmes for small loads.
– If smaller loads are washed using the
Cottons Hygiene and the Cottons
Universal programmes, the automat-
ic load recognition system will
reduce the amount of water, time and
energy used. This may mean that the
time left shown in the display is
adjusted during the course of the
wash programme.
– Instead of using the Cottons
Hygiene 95°C programme, use
Cottons Universal 60°C and select
the Intensive EXTRA. 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 EXTRA.

Washing environmentally and economically

Detergent

– Do not exceed the amount of
detergent recommended by the
manufacturer on the packaging.
– Reduce the amount of detergent for
smaller loads. Use the Load/
Detergent button.
Choosing the correct Extra options
(Soak, Pre-wash, Intensive)
Select:
A wash programme without any
EXTRAS for light to normal soiling
where there are no obvious marks.
A wash programme with the
Intensive EXTRA for normal to heavily
soiled laundry with visible staining.
– Use the Soak EXTRA 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.
