Ecological tips
To save water, energy and to help protect the environment,
we recommend that you follow these tips:
• Normally soiled laundry may be washed without pre-
washing in order to save detergent, water and time (the
environment is protected too!).
• The appliance works more economically if it is fully loaded.
• With adequate pre-treatment, stains and limited soiling
can be removed; the laundry can then be washed at a
lower temperature.
• Measure out detergent according to the water hardness,
the degree of soiling and the quantity of laundry being
washed. Keep the lint screen clean and exhaust the dryer
correctly.
• Sort laundry properly and select proper temperature and
cycle settings. Choose an automatic dry cycle whenever
possible for accurate drying time.
• Dry only full loads. Single items and small loads usually
take longer to dry.
• Avoid overloading, adding wet items to a partially dry load,
and overdrying.
• Dry one load after another to take advantage of a warm
dryer.
• Opening the dryer door needlessly causes warm air to
escape, which prolongs drying time.
• If possible, use the dryer on low humidity days.
• Install the unit in an area where the room temperature is at
least 7°C.
