Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing material
The transport and protective packing has been selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and can normally be recycled.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of babies and young children. Danger of suffocation!
Rather than just throwing these materials away, please ensure they are offered for recycling.
Disposal of your old machine
Old machines contain materials which can be reclaimed or recycled. Please contact your dealer, your local waste collection centre or scrap merchant about potential recycling schemes.
Ensure that the machine presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal.
Before throwing an old machine away unplug it and render the plug
useless. Cut off the cable directly behind the machine to prevent misuse. This should be done by a competent person.
Energy saving tips
^Make sure that your laundry is thoroughly spun before drying.
The higher the spin, the greater the savings that can be made in energy and time during drying.
^Load according to the optimum amount of laundry recommended for the programme being used (see Programme chart).
Underloading is uneconomical. Overloading gives a poorer quality of drying and may cause unnecessary creasing.
^To save energy and time:
–Make sure the room in which the dryer is located is well ventilated.
–Make sure the fluff filters are clean before using the dryer.
