Washing tips:
Energy and water consumption
– Do not overload the washer. The
energy and water consumption will
be most energy efficient.
– Use the "Express" program for small
loads.
– When smaller amounts of laundry are
washed using the "Normal" and
"Sanitize" programs, the automatic
load recognition feature will
automatically reduce the water,
energy, and time for that load. This
may cause a correction in the
remaining time displayed for the
wash.
– If applicable use the program
"Normal - Very Warm" instead of
"Sanitize". It saves between 35% and
45% energy. For most soiling, this is
sufficient. For stubborn soiling use
the option "Heavy Soil".
Detergent use
– Use the recommended amount of
detergent.
– Bear in mind the soiling degree of
the laundry.
– Use less detergent for small loads.
Options selection
(Extended, Heavy Soil)
Select for:
– For light to normal soiled items
without stains use a wash program
without an option.
– For normal to heavily soiled items
with stains wash with the "Extended"
option.
– For heavily soiled items use a wash
program with the "Heavy Soil" option
and "Extended".
– Items with lager soiling, e.g. dust,
sand, use a program with the option
"Heavy Soil".
Tip: If you will be using a tumble
dryer to dry the laundry
– Select the highest spin speed
suitable for the wash load to remove
as much water as possible to save
energy when tumble drying.
