washing for the particular

programme.

Overview of programmes

■Wash normally soiled laundry

without prewash.

■The selectable temperatures apply

to the care labels on the textiles. The

temperatures in the machine may

deviate from this so that you get the

optimum mix of energy-saving and

washing results.

■If the laundry is then dried in

the appliance, select the maximal

possible spin speed. The less water

the laundry contains, the less time

and energy are required for drying.

Do not dry dripping wet laundry.

■Ventilate the installation room well

and clean the air inlet filter regularly.
