- the packing material:
Never leave packaging material in a place
where children may play with it.
All materials used in packaging this machine are environ-
mentally-friendly. The various plastics used are identified
and can be recycled:
● PE stands for polyethylene, which is used for the
bag around the machine and the bag in which
these instructions were supplied.
● PS stands for polystyrene (in this case moulded
polystyrene), which is used for the sections of
packaging needed to cushion the machine in
transit.
The cardboard components of the packaging are made
from recyclable paper and should be taken to a collection
point for recycling. The machine contains plastic and
rubber components. These have identifying marks to
show what they are made from, so they can be recycled
or disposed of properly at the end of the machine's life.
The materials are identified according to international
standards.
- the old appliance:
At the end of the appliance's useful life, disconnect the
electrical plug from the power supply, then cut the elect-
rical lead at the point where it enters the appliance. Make
quite sure that children will not be able to play with it.
- energy saving tips:
To save water, energy and help protect the environment,
we recommend that you follow these hints:
● The washing machine is especially economical when
you fully utilise the stated filling quantities.
● Adjust the quantity of washing detergent according to
the hardness of the water, the amount of laundry and
the degree of soiling.
● A programme without pre-wash is sufficient for normally
soiled laundry.
● For small amounts of washing, use only half to two
thirds the recommended amount of washing detergent.
● Suitable pretreatment enables stains and small amounts
of dirt to be removed. You can then wash at a lower
temperature.
Disposal
Your new washing machine meets all modern require-
ments for effective treatment of laundry with low water,
energy and detergent consumption.
● The programme selector combines the function of
programme and temperature selection, making it
easier to set the programme.
● Programme progress display shows current phase
of the selected programme.
● The automatic cooling of the washing water from
90°C to 60°C before draining will reduce thermal
shock to fabrics, helping to prevent creasing.
● The special wool programme with it’s new delicate
wash system treats your woollens with extreme care.
● The unbalance detection system discover and
prevents vibrations caused by incorrect distribution
of the laundry during the spin cycle.
● The ECO valve makes the full use of detergent
