Protection of the environment/Conservation tips
– Always fill the washing machine with a maximum amount of
laundry for the relevant programme.
– Do not use prewash when washing laundry that is soiled normally.
– Instead of the CottonsL90°C programme, select
Cottons L60°C with additional function ćEco Perfect.
Comparable cleaning result with significantly lower energy
consumption.
– Dose detergent according to the manufacturer’s instructions
and water hardness.
– If the laundry is to be subsequently dried in a tumble dryer, select
a spin speed as specified by the dryer manufacturer.
