Environmental Protection/ Conservation Issues
Your washing machine uses water, energy and detergent efficiently,
thereby protecting the environment and reducing your household costs.
Using your washing machine in an efficient and environmentally
friendly manner:
Do not exceed recommended load.
Cottons 5.0kg
Easy-care 2.5kg
Delicates and Woollens 1.5kg
0 0
Where possible, use the 60 C Eco program instead of the 90 C Cottons
program. The extended washing achieves a cleaning result comparable
0
to the 90 C program, but uses considerably less energy.
Avoid using the Prewash program [ if applicable ] when washing lightly to
normally soiled laundry.
Add detergent according to the degree of soiling, amount of laundry and
water hardness, and observe the dertergent manufacturer’s
instructions.
