HINTS AND TIPS

9.1 

Ecological hints

• Spin the laundry well before drying.

• Do not exceed the load sizes which

are specified in the programs chapter.

• Clean the filter after each drying

cycle.

• Do not use fabric softener to wash

and then dry. In the tumble dryer

laundry becomes soft automatically.

• Use distilled water like that used for

steam ironing. If it is necessary, clean

the distilled water before (e.g. with a

coffee filter) to remove any particles.

• Always keep the airflow slots at the

bottom of the appliance clear.

• Make sure there is good airflow where

the appliance is to be installed.
