Environmental protection and saving energy
3.1 Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environ-
mentally compatible and can be re-
cycled.
Sort the individual components by
type and dispose of them separ-
ately.
3.2 Save energy and con-
serve resources
If you follow these instructions, your
appliance will use less electricity and
less water.
Choose programmes with low tem-
peratures and longer wash times and
use maximum load capacity.
aEnergy consumption and water
consumption is most efficient.
Add detergent based on the laun-
dry's degree of soiling.
aFor light to normal soiling, a smal-
ler amount of detergent is suffi-
cient. Observe the dosage recom-
mendation from the detergent
manufacturer.
Reduce the washing temperature for
lightly and normally soiled laundry.
aAt lower temperatures, the appli-
ance consumes less energy. For
light to normal soiling, lower tem-
peratures than indicated on the
care label are also sufficient.
Set the maximum spin speed if you
want to dry the laundry in the tumble
dryer afterwards.
aThe drier the laundry, the shorter
the programme duration when dry-
ing which, in turn, reduces energy
consumption. A higher spin speed
reduces the residual moisture in
the laundry and increases the
volume of the spin noise.
The appliance has a continuous
automatic load adjustment function.
aDepending on the type of fabric
and load capacity, the continuous
automatic load adjustment func-
tion optimally adjusts the water
consumption and programme dur-
ation.
3.3 Energy saving mode
If you do not use the appliance for an
extended period, it automatically
switches to energy-saving mode.
Energy-saving mode ends when you
use the appliance again.
