Protection of the environment/Conservation tips

– Utilise the maximum amount of washing for the particular programme.
– Wash normally soiled washing without prewash.

Comparable cleaning result with significantly lower energy consumption.

– 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.

Preparation

Before using your washing machine for the first time

wash once without any washing.
