Tips for environmental protection
To save energy and to help protect the
environment, we recommend that you
follow these hints:
• Try to load the maximum capacity of the
machine as small loads are
uneconomical.
• Always load well spun laundry. The higher
the spin speed, the lower the electricity
consumption and the shorter the drying
times.
• Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids
creasing and saves energy.
Select the drying time/section according
to the type of laundry and the required
degree of dryness.
• To utilize the maximum load, laundry
which is to be dried ready to put away
(store dry) can be dried together with
items to be ironed. To do this, select the
time for iron-dry, remove the iron-dry
items at the end of the programme and
then finish-dry the rest of the load.
• Clean the filters regularly to avoid
excessive drying times and high electricity
consumption.
• Ventilate the room well. The room
temperature should not exceed +35°C
during drying.
