Protection of the environment/Conservation tips
– Utilise the maximum amount of washing for the particular
programme.
– Wash normally soiled washing without prewash.
– The selectable temperatures apply to the care labels on the
textiles. The temperatures in the machine may deviate from this
so that you get the optimum mix of energy-saving and washing
results.
– Measure detergent according to the manufacturer’s instructions
and water hardness.
– If the washing is then dried in the tumble dryer, select spin speed
according to the instructions of the dryer manufacturer.
