Environmental protection/Conservation tips

– Always fill the washing machine with a maximum amount of 

laundry for the relevant programme.

– Wash normally soiled laundry without a pre-wash.
– Instead of 

LF

Cottons 90°C,

 choose the programme

Cottons Eco 60 °C

. Comparable cleaning result with 

significantly lower energy consumption.

– Measure the detergent according to the manufacturer's 

instructions and water hardness.

– If the laundry is then dried in the tumble dryer, select the spin 

speed according to the instructions of the dryer manufacturer.
