Helpful suggestions for the user

A guide environmentally friendly and

economicuse.of your appliance.

Maximise The Load Size

• Achieve the best use of energy, water,

detergent and time by using the

recommendedmaximumload size.

Save up to 50% energy by washing a full

load insteadof 2 half loads.

Do you need to pre-wash?

• For heavily soiled laundryonly!

SAVE detergent, time, water and

between 5 to 15% energy consumption

by NOT selecting Prewash for slight to

normallysoiled laundry.

Is a hot wash required?

• Pretreat stainswith stain removeror soak

dried in stains in water before washing to

reduce the necessity of a hot wash

programme.

Save up to 50% energy by using a 60°C

wash programme.

Following is a quick guide with tips and

recommendationson detergent use at the

various temperatures. In any case, always

read the instructions on the detergent for

correct useand doses.

When washing heavily soiled whites,

we recommend using cotton

programs of 60°C or above and a

normal washing powder (heavy duty)

that contains bleaching agents that at

medium/high temperatures provide

excellent results.

For washes between 40°C and 60°C

the type of detergent used needs to be

appropriate for the type of fabric and

level of soiling.

Normal powders are suitable for "white"

or colour fast fabrics with high soiling,

while liquid detergents or "colour

protecting" powders are suitable for

coloured fabrics with light levels of

soiling.

For washing at temperatures below

40°C we recommend the use of liquid

detergents or detergents specifically

labeled as suitable for low temperature

washing.

For washing wool or silk, only use

detergents specifically formulated for

these fabrics.

avoid accumulating detergent and

additive residue.

• To do this, extract the drawer using slight

force, clean it with running water and

reinsert it in its housing.
