Environmental tips
•
A pre-wash cycle is not necessary in the case of washing which is not
excessively dirt. This saves detergent, water and time (and is gentle on
the environment.)
•
If the indicated load capacities are taken full advantage of, the wash-
ing machine is especially efficient.
•
For small loads, use only one half to one third of the recommended
detergent quantity.
•
Suitable pre-treatment enables marks and limited amounts of dirt to
be removed. You can then wash at a lower temperature.
•
Wash slightly to normally dirty cottons with the energy-saving pro-
gram.
•
There is often no need for the softener. Try it once! If you use a drier,
your washing will become soft and fluffy even without a softener.
•
In the case of medium to high water hardness (hardness range runs to
upwards, see "Detergent and care agents“), you should use a water
softener. The detergent can then always be metered for hardness
range I (= soft).
