Important information
Preparing for washing and drying/Protecting the laundry and the machine
– Empty any pockets.
– Check for metal items (paper clips, etc.).
– Trousers, knitwear and knitted textiles, e.g. jersey garments, T-shirts or sweatshirts should
be turned inside out.
– Ensure that underwired bras are machine washable.
– Wash delicates in a net/bag (tights, curtains, underwired bras).
– Fasten zips, do up any buttons.
– Brush sand out of pockets and collars.
– Remove curtain hooks or place curtains in a net/bag.
– Only use tumble-dry textiles if you select drying.
– Remove as much water as possible before tumble-drying. The recommended spin speed
for cottons is more than 1000 rpm; for easy-care use more than 800 rpm.
– In order to ensure uniform drying, sort the items according to fabric type and degree
of drying required.
– Items which require ironing do not have to be ironed immediately after being tumble-dried.
It is a good idea to fold or roll them together for a while, so that any remaining moisture
is evenly distributed.
– To achieve good drying results, dry quilt covers, terry towels or other large textile items
individually. Do not dry more than 4 terry towels (or 3 kg) at a time.

At the end of the programme, set the programme selector to  Off .
After a long period of not using or moving the machine
The syphon may be empty. If you select a single drying programme to prevent the hot
and humid steam from coming out of the empty syphon, the tap water will automatically
flow into the machine to fill the syphon at the beginning of the programme.

necessary).

Conservation tips
– Load the maximum amount of laundry to wash or dry for the
particular programme. a Page 7: Programme overview
– Do not use prewash when washing laundry that is soiled
normally.
– Select Cottons Eco 60°C to obtain good cleaning results
with significantly lower energy consumption.
– Dose detergent according to the manufacturer’s instructions
and water hardness.
– If the laundry is to be dried in the appliance afterwards, select
the highest selectable spin speed – because the more water
that is spun out of the appliance, the less time and energy is
required to dry it.
– If hand-washed laundry or dripping-wet laundry needs to be
dried, please select the Spin programme with the option
washing and drying without interruption, otherwise it will
waste time and energy.
Congratulations – You have opted for a modern, high-quality
domestic appliance manufactured by BOSCH. The washer dryer
is distinguished by its economical use of water and energy.
