Hints and Tips for Eco-Friendly Washing
■■Keep to the load limit of each program.
■■Your washing machine automatically adjusts the operating time and amount of water of each program depending on the load.
■■You only need to use the PREWASH or INTENSIVE options if your laundry is heavily soiled.
■■Add detergent according to the degree of soiling, laundry size and water hardness, and follow the detergent manufacturer’s instructions.
■■Using the Cotton program with water temperature at 60ºC setting instead of the Cotton program with water temperature at 90ºC will save energy, and will remove ordinary stains. Better still, in areas where the temperature is high, you can remove ordinary stains without using hot water by setting ‘Cold’ programs for more ecologically friendly operation.
