Environmental protection tips

• Your laundry will become light and soft in the tum-
ble dryer even without a fabric softening agent.
• Loosen your laundry before loading it into the
dryer. This helps to prevent lengthy running times
and creasing. Ensure your laundry is well spun.
• Remove as much water as possible from the
washing before drying!

If the amount of laundry is not enough for a particular
degree of drying (e.g. HAND IRON; BÜGELTRO-
CKEN), you should dry it in stages for best economy:
Fill the dryer and select the program HAND IRON
(BÜGELTROCKEN); after the end of this program
take out your laundry for ironing. Finally dry the
remaining laundry with the program CUPBOARD
DRY (SCHRANKTROCKEN).
• Only use the SPECIAL CARE (SCHON) button for
loads up to 2.5kg.
• Clean the fluff filter after every drying program!
• Empty the water reservoir after every drying proc-
ess!

This is based on the principle: the better you spin the
washing before drying the more economical the dryer
is.
