In order to realize water and energy savings and to act in an environmentally conscious manner, we advice to follow the below instructions :

Use if possible the appliance with full loads instead of partial loads. Take care to do not overload the drum.

Use only the programmes with prewash for very soiled laundry.

When disposing of the machine in a proper manner, destroy the door lock and cut off the power supply cord.
