Environmental Protection /
Conservation Issues
Your washing machine uses water, energy and detergent efficiently, thereby protecting the environment and reducing your household costs. See Page 35 for consumption values of your appliance.
Using your washing machine in an efficient and environmentally friendly manner:
- Do not exceed the maximum load specifications:
Cottons/coloureds |
6.0 |
kg |
/ |
13.2 |
lb |
||
Easy4care |
3.0 |
kg |
/ |
6.6 |
lb |
|
|
Delicate and Wool |
2.0 |
kg |
/ 4.4 |
lb |
|||
For small amounts |
of laundry, the |
|
automatic |
water |
level control system reduces the consumption of both water and energy.
-Where possible, use the °C60 • ntensive Stains" programme instead of the °C90 •Cottons/
coloureds" programme. The extended washing duration means that a cleaning result comparable to that of the°C90 programme is achieved using considerably less energy.
- Avoid using the Prewash programme when washing lightly to normally soiled laundry.
-Add detergent according to the degree of soiling, amount of laundry and water hardness, and observe the detergent manufacturer's instructions.

Laundry Detergents
and Additives
Dispensing the correct amount of detergent
Risk of poisoning!
Keep detergents and additives out of the reach of children.
Dispense the detergent according to:
the water hardness. This information can be obtained from your local water authority.
the amount of laundry.
the amount of soil. Information on soiling can be found on Page .
the specifications of the detergent manufacturer. Dispensing the correct amount of detergent
relieves the strain on the environment and ensures 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.
