Environmentally friendly washing and drying
22
Energy and water consumption
- Use the maximum load size for the
current programme. The energy and
water consumption will then be the
lowest in relation to the size of the
load.
- Programmes that are more efficient
with regard to energy and water
consumption generally have a longer
programme running time. By
extending the programme running
time, the wash temperature that is
actually reached can be reduced
while still providing the same wash
results.
For example, the ECO40-60
programme has a longer programme
running time than the Cottons 40°C
or 60°C programme. The ECO40-60
programme, however, is more
efficient in terms of energy and water
consumption.
- Use the Express programme for
small, lightly soiled loads.
- Modern detergents make it possible
to wash at lower temperatures (e.g.
20°C). Using lower temperature
settings will save energy.
- To maintain the hygiene of the
machine, carry out a hot wash (above
60°C) at regular intervals. The
indicator light lights up in the
control panel and appears in the
time display of the washer-dryer to
remind you.
Detergent
- Do not exceed the amounts of
detergent recommended by the
manufacturer on the packaging.
- Adjust the dosage to the degree of
soiling of the laundry.
- Reduce the amount of detergent with
smaller loads (e.g. reduce the amount
of detergent by ⅓ when washing a
half load).
Information about subsequent
tumble drying
To save energy when tumble drying,
select the highest possible spin speed
for the wash programme and for the
thermospin.
