2Environmental tips

•A pre-wash cycle is not necessary in the case of washing which is not excessively dirt. This saves detergent, water and time (and is gentle on the environment.)

•If the indicated load capacities are taken full advantage of, the wash- ing machine is especially efficient.

•For small loads, use only one half to one third of the recommended detergent quantity.

•Suitable pre-treatment enables marks and limited amounts of dirt to be removed. You can then wash at a lower temperature.

•Wash slightly to normally dirty cottons with the energy-saving pro- gram.

•There is often no need for the softener. Try it once! If you use a drier, your washing will become soft and fluffy even without a softener.

•In the case of medium to high water hardness (hardness range runs to upwards, see "Detergent and care agents“), you should use a water softener. The detergent can then always be metered for hardness range I (= soft).
