Special features
▯
A distinctive feature of your dryer is low energy
consumption as it is ENERGY STAR certified.
▯
Bosch dryers feature advanced operation philosophy,
customized drying programs and a solid touch and
feel making them a user-friendly household assistant.
▯
Bosch load sensing feature controls power
consumption for each cycle based on the amount and
type of laundry. This automatic feature optimizes
energy efficiency.
Environmentally friendly use of your dryer
Your new Bosch dryer is designed to use energy in a
highly efficient way to help reduce operating costs,
conserve resources and protect the environment.
To save energy, money and time, Bosch recommends
the following:
▯
Spin the laundry thoroughly
Before drying, spin the laundry thoroughly in the
washing machine. Use the highest possible spin
speed for the type of laundry. Higher spin speeds
reduce the drying time and the energy consumption.
▯
Optimize load and selected drying program
▯
Use the maximum amount of laundry for the
appropriate drying program.
▯
Use automatic drying programs for the most energy
efficient use of your dryer. They perform according
to internal moisture and temperature sensors
delivering optimized efficiency and fabric care.
▯
Use the Time Dry program for touching up damp
loads or for small loads. This program will use more
energy than the automatic programs.
