Ecological hints
To save energy and to help protect the
environment, we recommend that you follow
these hints:
• T ry to load the maximum capacity of the
machine as small loads are uneconomical.
• A lways load well spun laundry. The higher
the spin speed, the lower the electricity
consumption and the shorter the drying times.
• D o not over-dry laundry, this avoids creasing
and saves energy. Select the drying program
according to the type of laundry and the
required degree of dryness.
• T o utilize the maximum load, laundry which
is to be dried ready to put away (store-dry)
can be dried together with items to be ironed.
To do this, select the program for iron-dry,
remove the iron-dry items at the end of the
program and then finish-dry the rest of the load.
• C lean the filters regularly to avoid excessive
drying times and high electricity consumption.
• V entilate the room well. The room temperature
should not exceed +35°C during drying.
• R egularly clean the air intake.
