Ecological hints

To save water, energy and to help protect the environment, we recommend that you fol- low these tips:

•Normally soiled laundry may be washed without prewashing in order to save deter- gent, water and time (the environment is protected too!).

•The machine works more economically if it is fully loaded.

•With adequate pre-treatment, stains and limited soiling can be removed; the laundry can then be washed at a lower temperature.

•Measure out detergent according to the water hardness, the degree of soiling and the quantity of laundry being washed.
