Ecological hints
To save water, energy and to help protect the environment, we recommend that
you follow these tips:
•
Normally soiled laundry may be washed without prewashing in order to save
detergent, water and time (the environment is protected too!).
•
The machine 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.
