Electrolux EWD 1409 I manual Your New Washer-Dryer, Ecological hints, Interest Environment

Your New Washer-Dryer

Your new washer-dryer fitted with the Electrolux “NEW JET SYSTEM”, meets all modern requirements for effective treatment of laundry with low water, energy and detergent consumption.

Even small loads are washed “economically” because the amount of water used is regulated automatically according to the load and type of fabric.

●Automatic cooling of the wash water to 60°C before draining, with the 95°C programme. This reduces thermal shock to fabrics, helping to prevent creasing.

●The special WOOL/HANDWASH programme with its new delicate wash system treats your woollens with extreme care.

●The anti-unbalance device ensures that the washing machine remains stable when spinning.

●The two drying programmes will give your wash that soft, relaxed feel whatever the weather.

Ecological hints

To save water and energy and help protect the environment, we recommend that you follow these hints:

●Adjust the quantity of detergent according to the hardness of your water supply, the amount of laundry and the degree of soiling.

●Select an “economy” programme for lightly soiled laundry.

●A programme without prewash is sufficient for normally soiled laundry.

●The machine works more economically if it is fully loaded both for washing and drying cycles.

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

●Always load well spun laundry. The higher the spin speed, the lower the electricity consumption and the shorter the drying times.

Important

Your machine is fitted with a balance control device, which ensures the machine is stable during the spin.

If the wash load appears not to have been spun sufficiently at the end of the wash cycle, it is because it is not evenly distributed in the drum, the balance control device may have operated. It will therefore be necessary to redistribute the wash load manually and select a spin programme. For more detailed information see the section headed "Something Not Working".
