PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL
RECOMMENDATIONS
1.Packing
•The packaging materials are 100% recyclable and bear the recycling symbol 
. Adhere to local regulations when disposing of packaging material.
2.Energy saving tips
•Achieve the best use of energy, water, detergent and time by using the recommended maximum load size.
•Do not exceed the detergent dosages indicated in the manufacturer’s instructions.
•The Eco Ball - a special system in the outlet - will prevent detergent loss from the drum to avoid detergent loss into the environment.
•Use “Prewash” for heavily soiled laundry only! Save detergent, time, water and energy consumption by not selecting “Prewash” for slight to normally soiled laundry.
•Pretreat stains with stain remover or soak dried in stains in water before washing to reduce the necessity of a hot wash program.
•Save energy by using a 60°C instead of a 90°C wash programme or a 40°C instead of a 60°C wash programme.
•Save energy and time by selecting a high spin speed to reduce the water content in laundry before using a tumble dryer (for machines with adjustable spin speed).
