Ecological hints
To save energy and to help protect the
environment,we recommend that you
follow these hints:
• Normally soiled laundry may be
washed without prewashing in order
to save detergent, water and time
(the nvironment is protected too!).
• The machine works more
economically if it is fully loaded.
• With adequate pre-treatment, stains
and limited soiling can be removed;
the laundry can then be washed at
a lower temperature.
• Measure out detergent according to
the water hardness, the degree of
soiling and the quantity of laundry
being washed..
• To utilize the maximum load, laundry
which is tobe dried ready to put away
(store dry) can be dried together with
items to be ironed. To do this, select
the programme for iron-dry, remove
the iron-dry items at the end of the
programme and then finish-dry the
rest of the load.
• Clean the filters regularly to avoid
excessive drying times and high
electricity consumption.
• Ventilate the room well. The room
temperature should not exceed +35°C
during.
