Washing environmentally and economically

Energy and water consumption

–Water consumption and energy usage are determined by the size of the load.

To make the most out of your machine, load the maximum dry load for the programme you are using.

–Use the Automatic and Express programmes for small loads.

–When smaller amounts of laundry are washed using the Cottons programme, the automatic load recognition system will reduce the amount of water, time and energy used. This may mean that the time left shown in the display is adjusted during the course of the wash programme.

–Using the Cottons 60°C programme, instead of the Cottons 95°C programme will give energy savings of between 35% and 45%. This is sufficient for most levels of soiling.

Detergent

–Do not exceed the amounts of detergent recommended by the manufacturer on the packaging.

–Adjust the dosage to the degree of soiling of the laundry.

–Reduce the amount of detergent with smaller loads (approx. 1/3 less than the amount recommended can be used when washing a half load).

Choosing the correct extra option (Short and Pre-wash)

Select:

–A wash programme together with the Short extra option for light to normal soiling where there are no obvious marks.

–A wash programme without any extra options for normal to heavy soiling with visible staining.

–The Pre-washextra option for laundry with large amounts of dirt (e.g. dust, sand).

When drying with a tumble dryer

Selecting the highest possible spin speed for the wash programme will save energy when drying in a tumble dryer afterwards.
