Environmental protection/Conservation tips
– Always fill the washing machine with a maximum amount of
laundry for the relevant programme.
– Wash normally soiled laundry without a pre-wash.
– Instead of ûćđüĂ (
Cottons)
90 °C, choose the programme
ûćđüĂ (
Cottons)
Eco perfect j 60 °C. Comparable
cleaning result with significantly lower energy consumption.
– Measure the detergent according to the manufacturer's
instructions and water hardness.
– If the laundry is then dried in the tumble dryer, select the spin
speed according to the instructions of the dryer manufacturer.
