Environmentally friendly washing and drying

Energy and water consumption
- Water consumption and energy us-
age are determined by the size of the
load. To make the most of your ma-
chine, load the maximum dry load for
the programme you are using.
- Use the
Express
programme for
small, lightly soiled loads.
- When smaller amounts of laundry are
washed, the automatic load recogni-
tion system will reduce the amount of
water and energy used.
- Modern detergents make it possible
to wash at lower temperatures (e.g.
20 °C). Washing using lower temper-
ature settings will save energy.
- To maintain the hygiene of the
washer-dryer we recommend running
a washing programme with a temper-
ature of 60 °C or above.
Hygiene info
will appear in the display to remind
you to do this.
Detergent
- For precise dispensing use automatic
detergent dispensing.
- Adjust the dosage to the degree of
soiling of the laundry.
- Do not exceed the amounts of deter-
gent recommended by the manufac-
turer on the packaging.
When drying with a tumble
dryer
To save energy when tumble drying, se-
lect the highest possible spin speed for
the wash programme and for the
thermo-spin.
