3 Environmental protec-
tion and saving energy
3.1 Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environ-
mentally compatible and can be re-
cycled.
▶
Sort the individual components by
type and dispose of them separ-
ately.
3.2 Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your
appliance will use less power.
Operate the appliance in a well-vent-
ilated room and keep the air inlet on
the appliance clear.

If air exchange is impeded, this ex-
tends the programme duration and
increases energy consumption.
Spin the laundry in the washing ma-
chine before drying.

If the laundry is excessively damp,
this extends the programme dura-
tion and increases energy con-
sumption.
