Environmental and Economical Tips
Energy and water consumption
• Water consumption and energy usage can be affected by the weight
of the load. To make the best use of your appliance, load the
maximum amount of dry clothes for the particular programme.
• Evenly loading laundry up to the capacity indicated by the
manufacturer for the respective programmes will contribute to
energy and water savings.
• The most efficient programmes in terms of energy consumption are
generally those that perform at lower temperatures and longer
duration.
• Noise and remaining moisture content are influenced by the spinning
speed: the higher the spinning speed in the spinning phase, the
higher the noise and the lower the remaining moisture content.
• For washing smaller amounts of clothes, the automatic load
recognition system will help reduce the amount of water and energy
usage.
• Use the Speed programme for small, lightly soiled loads for energy
and water savings.
• Cold water laundry detergents can be as effective at lower
temperatures (about 20
℃
). Using 20
℃
settings will use less energy
than 30
℃
or higher temperatures.
Detergent
• Detergent should be chosen according to type, colour, soiling of the
fabric and the washing temperature. And it should be used according
to the instruction of the detergent manufacturer. Use only
detergents that are suitable for Drum (front load) type washers.
• Use less detergent on smaller loads.
