Packaging/used appliance
Save energy and conserve
resources
If you follow these instructions, your
appliance will use less electricity and
less water.
Choose programmes with low
temperatures and longer wash times
and use maximum load capacity
■
Energy consumption and water
consumption is most efficient.
Use the economy programme settings.
■
If you adjust the programme settings
for a programme, the display shows
the expected consumption.
Add
the laundry’s degree of soiling.
■
For light to normal soiling, a smaller
amount of detergent is sufficient.
Observe the dosage
recommendation from the detergent
manufacturer.
Reduce the washing temperature for
lightly and normally soiled laundry.
■
At low temperatures, the appliance
consumes less energy. For light to
normal soiling, lower temperatures
than indicated on the care label are
also sufficient.
Set the maximum spin speed if you
want to dry the laundry in a tumble dryer
afterwards.
■
The drier the laundry, the shorter the
programme duration when drying
which, in turn, reduces energy
consumption. A higher spin speed
reduces the residual moisture in the
laundry and increases the volume of
the spin noise.
Wash the laundry without prewash.
■
Washing with prewash increases the
programme duration and increases
energy and water consumption.
The appliance has a continuous
automatic load adjustment function.
■
Depending on the type of fabric and
load capacity, the continuous
automatic load adjustment function
optimally adjusts the water
consumption and programme
duration.
Energy saving mode
If the appliance is not operated for a
prolonged period (approx. 5 minutes), it
automatically switches to energy-saving
mode, the display panel lighting goes
