Ecological hints
To save water, energy and to help protect the environment, we recommend that you follow
these tips:
• Normally soiled laundry may be washed without prewashing in order to save detergent,
water and time (the environment is protected too!).
• The machine works more economically if it is fully loaded.
• With adequate pre-treatment, stains and limited soiling can be removed; the laundry can
then be washed at a lower temperature.
• Measure out detergent according to the water hardness, the degree of soiling and the
quantity of laundry being washed.
are recyclable.
