Hints and Tips for Eco-Friendly Washing
The shipping package has protected your new washing machine on its
way to your home. All materials are ecologically harmless and recyclable.
Please contribute to a better environment by disposing of packaging
materials in an environmentally conscious manner.
Please ask your dealer or inquire at your local authorities about current
means of disposal.
Risk of choking!
Do not let children play with packaging and associated parts.
Risk of choking on plastic fi lm and collapsible boxes.
Old appliances are not worthless rubbish. Environment-conscious
recycling can reclaim valuable new materials.
Danger of death!
Unplug mains plug on redundant appliances. Cut off mains cable and
discard with mains plug.
Destroy the lock on the door. To prevent playing children from being
trapped and endangered, ensure that the door locking mechanism is
disabled.
If you wish to discard this product, please contact your local authorities or
dealer and ask for the correct method of disposal.
■
Keep to the load limit of each program.
■
Your washing machine automatically adjusts the operating time and
amount of water of each program depending on the load.
■
You only need to use the Prewash option if your laundry is heavily
soiled.
■
Add detergent according to the degree of soiling, laundry size and water
hardness, and follow the detergent manufacturer’s instructions.
■
Using the Cotton 60ºC program instead of the Cotton 90ºC will save
energy, and will remove ordinary stains. Better still, in areas where the
temperature is high, you can remove ordinary stains without using hot
water by setting
operation.

Too much detergent can result in excess foam formation which
reduces rinse effi ciency or may cause a water leak.
■
Depending on the detergent brand, detergent may remain undissolved
when the water pressure is low, or when the water temperature is low.
