Energy saving tips
21
This dryer with heat-pump technology
is designed for energy-saving drying
cycles. However, you can save a little
more energy with the following meas-
ures as the drying time is not exten-
ded unnecessarily.
- Make sure your laundry is spun at the
maximum spin speed before drying.
The higher the spin speed, the
greater the savings that can be made
in energy and time during drying, e.g.
approx. 20% energy can be saved if
spun at 1600 rpm instead of
1000 rpm.
- Load according to the optimum
amount of laundry recommended for
the programme being used. This will
mean that the energy consumption
for the amount of laundry is at its
most economical.
- Make sure that the room temperature
is not too high. If there are other heat
producing appliances in the room in
which the dryer is located, make sure
the room is well ventilated and switch
the other appliances off, if possible.
- Clean the fluff filters in the door open-
ing after every drying cycle.
Please refer to “Cleaning and care” for
information on cleaning the fluff filters
and the plinth filter.
- If possible, make use of time-vari-
able, low-cost electricity tariffs. Ask
your energy supplier for information.
Your tumble dryer's delay start func-
tion will be useful as you can select
when during the next 24 hours you
want drying to start automatically.
