Energy And Water Consumption; Detergent; Additional Options (Soak, Pre-Wash, Intensive); When Drying With A Tumble Dryer - Miele W 460 WPS Operating Instructions Manual

– Water consumption and energy
usage are determined by the size of
the load.
– Use the Mixed wash or the Quick
wash programme for smaller
amounts of laundry.
– When smaller amounts of laundry are
washed in the COTTONS
programmes, the automatic load
recognition system will reduce the
amount of water, time and energy
used. This may mean that the
programme duration alters during the
course of the wash programme.
– Instead of the COTTONS 95°C
programme, use the COTTONS 60°C
programme together with the
Intensive additional option. This will
give an energy saving of between
35% and 45%. The programme
duration will be longer. This
combination is sufficient for most
levels of soiling. For stubborn or old
stains, use the Soak option.
– Do not exceed the amounts of
detergent which may be
recommended by the manufacturer
on the packaging.
– Reduce the amount of detergent with
smaller loads (approx.
the amount recommended can be
used when washing a half load).
Select:
a wash programme without any
additional options for light to normal
soiling where there are no obvious
marks.
a wash programme together with the
Intensive option for normal to heavily
soiled laundry with visible staining.
– Use the additional option Soak
instead of Pre-wash . If Soak is
followed immediately by a main wash
the same suds are used.
– Selecting the highest possible spin
speed for the wash programme will
save energy when drying in a tumble
dryer afterwards.
