This means that they can be recycled by disposing of them properly in appropriate collection containers.

To save water, energy and to help protect the environment, we recommend that you follow these tips:

• Normally soiled laundry may be washed without prewashing in order to save detergent, water and time (the environment is protected too!).

• The machine works more economically if it is fully loaded.

• With adequate pre-treatment, stains and limited soiling can be removed; the laundry can then be washed at a lower temperature.

• Measure out detergent according to the water hardness, the degree of soiling and the quantity of laundry being washed.

Follow the wash code symbols on each garment label and the manufacturer’s washing instructions. Sort the laundry as follows: whites, coloureds, synthetics, delicates, woollens.

I no metal objects are left in the laundry (e.g. hair clips, safety pins, pins). Button up pillowcases, close zip fasteners, hooks and poppers. Tie any belts or long tapes. Remove any hooks (e.g curtains).

• Never wash whites and coloureds together. Whites may lose their «whiteness» in the wash.

Good washing results also depend on the choice of detergent and use of the correct quantities to avoid waste and protect the environment. Although biodegradable, detergents contain substances which, in large quantities, can upset the delicate balance of nature. The choice of detergent will depend on the type of fabric (delicates, woollens, cottons, etc.), the colour, washing temperature and degree of soiling. All commonly available washing machine detergents may be used in this appliance:

• powder detergents for all types of fabric,

• powder detergents for delicate fabrics (40°C max) and woollens,

• liquid detergents, preferably for low temperature wash programmes (60°C max) for all types of fabric, or special for woollens only.

The type and quantity of detergent will depend on the type of fabric, load size, degree of soiling and hardness of the water used. For the quantity of detergent, refer always to what is written on the product packing. Use less detergent if:

• you are washing a small load,

• the laundry is lightly soiled,

• large amounts of foam form during washing.

Water hardness is classified in so-called “degrees” of hardness. Information on hardness of the water in your area can be obtained from the relevant water supply company, or from your local authority.

1) do not use acetone on artificial silk.

If the water hardness degree is medium or high we sug-
