Tips on saving energy
To save energy and water, try to load the maximum
for the programme selected. Underloading is
uneconomical. Overloading gives a poorer quality of
wash result and may cause unnecessary creasing.
Make sure that your laundry is thoroughly spun
before drying. This saves time and energy.
Carrying out the final rinse with hot water helps to
reduce the residual moisture level, and the residual
heat in the laundry will help keep processing time
down in the dryer, thus saving energy.
Follow detergent manufacturer's advice regarding the
right amount of detergent to use.
This will depend on the size of the load, the water
hardness level and the amount of soiling in the
laundry.
Chose the correct programme (with pre-wash or
intensive options selected) and the correct
temperature.
