Environmental Protection /

Conservation Issues

 

Your washing machine uses water, energy and

 

detergent efficiently,

thereby protecting the

 

environment and reducing your household costs.

 

See Page 61 for consumption values of your

 

appliance.

 

Hints and tips

Using your washing

machine in an efficient and

Do not exceed recommended load.

Cottons+Linens

6.5

Where possible, use the °C60 •Stains" programme instead of the °C90 •Cottons+Linens"

programme. The extended washing time achieves a cleaning result comparable to that of °Cthe 90 programme, but uses considerably less energy.

Do not use prewash for lightly to normally soiled washing.

dd detergent according to the degree of soiling amount of laundry and water hardness, and

observe the detergent manufacturer's instructions.

If washing is then to

be dried in the tumble dr

select spin speed in accordance with the

instructions supplied by

the specifications of the detergent manufacturer. Dispensing the correct amount of detergent relieves the strain on the environment and ensure optimum washing results.

Pour liquid detergent into the appropriate dispensing chamber.

Too little detergent:

The laundry is not cleaned properly and will, after a while, become grey and stiff.

Greyish brown spots (fat globules) may appear on the laundry.

The heaters may calcify.

Too much detergent:

Environmentally incompatible, excessive foam reduces wash agitation causing poor washing and rinsing results.
