Protection of the environment/
conservation tips
– Utilise the maximum load of washing for each particular
programme.
– Wash normally soiled fabrics without prewash.
– The selectable temperatures apply to the care labels on the
textiles. The temperatures in the machine may deviate from this so
that you get the optimum mix of energy-saving and washing
results.
– Detergent dosage using the intelligent dosage system helps save
detergent and water.
– Energy saving mode: The display panel light goes out after
several minutes, $ Start/Reload flashes. To activate the light,
select any button.
– If the washing is then dried in the tumble dryer, select spin speed
according to the instructions of the dryer manufacturer.
