Ecological hints
To save energy and to help protect the
environment,we recommend that you
follow these hints:
• Try to load the maximum capacity of
the machine as small loads are
uneconomical.
• Always load well spun laundry. The
higher the spin speed, the lower the
electricity consumption and the shorter
the drying times.
• Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids
creasing and saves energy.
Select the drying programme
according to the type of laundry and
the required degree of dryness.
• To utilize the maximum load, laundry
which is to be dried ready to put away
(store dry) can be dried together with
items to be ironed. To do this, select
the programme for iron-dry, remove
the iron-dry items at the end of the
programme and then finish-dry the
rest of the load.
• Clean the filters regularly to avoid
excessive drying times and high
electricity consumption.
• Ventilate the room well. The room
temperature should not 35°C
during drying.
