Environmentally friendly washing and drying

Energy and water consumption
– Water consumption and energy
usage are determined by the size of
the load. To make the most of your
machine, load the maximum dry load
for the programme you are using.
– Use the Express programme for
small, lightly soiled loads.
– When smaller amounts of laundry are
washed, the automatic load
recognition system will reduce the
amount of water and energy used.
– Modern detergents make it possible
to wash at lower temperatures (e.g.
20°C). Washing using lower
temperature settings will save energy.
– To maintain the hygiene of the
washer-dryer we recommend running
a washing programme with a
temperature of 60°C or above.
Hygiene info will appear in the display
to remind you to do this.
Detergent
– For precise dispensing use automatic
detergent dispensing.
– Adjust the dosage to the degree of
soiling of the laundry.
– Do not exceed the amounts of
detergent recommended by the
manufacturer on the packaging.
When drying with a tumble
dryer
To save energy when tumble drying,
select the highest possible spin speed
for the wash programme and for the
thermo-spin.
