Your New Washing Machine
i
Your new washing machine, meets all modern needs for effective treatment of laundry with low
water, energy and detergent consumption.
■
Automatic cooling of the wash water to 60°C
before draining, with the 90°C programme. This
reduces thermal shock to fabrics, helping to prevent
any creasing.
■
The special wool programme with its new delicate
wash system treats your woollens with extreme
gentleness.
■
The anti-unbalance device ensures that the washing
machine remains stable when spinning.
Ecological hints
To save water and energy and help protect the
environment, we recommend that you follow these
hints:
■
Adjust the quantity of detergent according to the
hardness of your water supply, the amount of
laundry and the degree of soiling.
■
Select an “economy” programme for normally soiled
laundry and a “quick” programme for lightly soiled
laundry .
■
A programme without prewash is sufficient for
normally soiled laundry.
In the interest of the
environment
■
Materials marked with the symbol are
recyclable.
■
Check with your local Council or Environmental
Health Office to see if there are facilities in your area
for re-cycling this appliance.
■
When the appliance is to be scrapped, cut off the
power supply cable and make the door closing
device unusable to prevent young children from
being trapped inside.
■
Help to keep your country tidy - use authorised
disposal sites for your old appliance.
How do we help to protect the environment?
