Energy and water consumption
–
To make the most out of each wash
load, load the maximum dry weight
for the program you have selected.
–
Use the Colours and Express
programs for small loads.
–
When smaller amounts of laundry are
washed using the Normal program,
the automatic load recognition
system will automatically reduce the
water, energy, and time for that load.
This may cause a correction in the
remaining time displayed for the
wash.
– To save energy, all wash programs
with a temperature setting of 40°C or
above will draw from the hot water
supply. The only exception is the
Wool program, which protects
garments by avoiding the use of hot
water.
Detergent consumption
–
Do not exceed the maximum
detergent dose listed on the
package.
–
Adjust the detergent dose to suit how
soiled the laundry is.
–
For smaller loads, reduce the amount
(approx.
1
/
3
less detergent for a half
load).
Choosing the right extra options
(Exended and Pre-wash)
Select:
– a wash program together with NO
extra option for lightly to moderate
soiled items with no obvious staining
– a wash program with Exended extra
options for moderate to heavy soiling
with visible staining.
– The Heavy Soil extra option for
laundry with large amounts of dirt
(e.g., dust, sand).
When drying with a tumble dryer
To help save energy when using a
dryer, select the highest possible spin
speed for the wash program in
question.
