Protection of the environment/
conservation tips
– Utilise the maximum load of washing for each particular
programme.
– Wash normally soiled fabrics without prewash.
– The selectable temperatures apply to the care labels on the
textiles. The temperatures in the machine may deviate from this so
that you get the optimum mix of energy-saving and washing
results.
– Detergent dosage using the intelligent dosage system helps save
detergent and water.
–
Energy saving mode:
The display panel light goes out after
several minutes,

Start/Reload
flashes. To activate the light,
select any button.
– If the washing is then dried in the tumble dryer, select spin speed
according to the instructions of the dryer manufacturer.
Automatic stain treatment
Special treatment of 16 different stain types is possible.
No pretreatment of the stains is required – washing machine adjusts
the washing process.
