Protection of the environment / hints and tips

Your washer dryer uses water, energy and detergent efficiently, thereby protecting the environment and reducing your household costs. See page 53 for consumption values of your appliance. Hints and tips Using your washer dryer in an efficient and environmentally friendly manner: q With smaller amounts of laundry, the load adjust reduces the water and energy consumption. q Select the Cottons Eco 60 C with Wash Plus 90 C. The X programme instead of Cottons longer washing time in this 60 C programme means that the cleaning effects are comparable with those of a 90 C programme, although the power consumption is considerably lower. q Do not use prewash for lightly to normally soiled washing. q Add detergent according to the degree of soiling, amount of laundry and water hardness, and observe the detergent manufacturer's instructions. q If washing is then to be dried in the appliance, select the higher spin speed because the more water that is spun out of the appliance, the less time and energy is required to dry it, and get a good drying performance. In case of cotton, 1000rpm spin speed is recommended; in case of easycare, 800rpm spin speed is recommended.

General safety instructions

Your washer dryer is intended for - use in the household only, - for washing machine washable fabrics in washing lye, - operation with cold drinking water and commer cially available detergents and cleaning products which are suitable for use in washing machines.

Preparing, sorting and loading the laundry

Preparing the laundry
Attention Loose debris (e.g. coins, paper clips, needles, nails) can damage items of clothing as well as parts of the washer dryer (e.g. drum). q Empty all pockets on items of clothing. q Brush sand out of pockets and cuffs/turn ups. q Close zips, fasten pillow cases/cushion covers. q Remove curtain runners or tie up in a net/bag. q Wash in a net/cushion cover: - -delicates, e.g. tights, curtains, - -small laundry items, e.g. socks, handkerchiefs, - -underwired bras (underwire may become detached during washing and cause damage). q Trousers, knitwear and knitted textiles, e.g. jersey garments, T shirts or sweatshirts should be turned inside out.

Preparing laundry for drying

q Only tumble dry textiles which have been washed, rinsed and spun. q Remove as much water as possible from the laundry. Do not press the button for reducing the spin speed. q Before tumble drying, easy care items should also be spun using the appropriate spin programme (see programme table). q In order to ensure uniform drying, sort the items according to fabric type and degree of drying required.

14

q Easy care items should if possible be removed from the machine while still slightly damp and allowed to continue drying in the open air. Overdrying may cause excessive creasing. q Items which require ironing do not have to be ironed immediately after being tumble dried. It is a good idea to fold or roll them together for a while, so that any remaining moisture is evenly distributed.

Sorting the laundry

According to colour and degree of dirt

Attention Washing may become discoloured. Do not wash new coloured washing with other washing.

White items may become grey. Wash white and coloured items separately.

Degrees of dirt

Lightly soiled No visible soiling or stains. Washing has probably absorbed body odour. - Light weight summer clothing and sportswear worn for several hours. - T shirts, shirts, blouses worn for up to one day. - Bed linen, guest towels used for one day.

15

Normally soiled Visible soiling and/or a few light stains. - T shirts, shirts, blouses soaked in sweat or worn several times. - Underpants, briefs worn for one day. - Tea towels, hand towels, bed linen used for up to one week. - Curtains (without nicotine soiling) used for up to six months. Very soiled Visible soiling and/or stains. - Kitchen towels used for up to one week. - Fabric serviettes. - Baby bibs. - Children's outer clothing or football jerseys and shorts soiled with grass and/or earth. - Work clothes, e.g. mechanic's overalls, baker's and butcher's clothing. Typical stains - Skin grease, cooking oil/fat, sauces, mineral oil, wax (containing fat/oil). - Tea, coffee, red wine, fruit, vegetables (which can be bleached). - Blood, egg, milk, starch (containing protein, carbo hydrate). - Soot, earth, sand (pigments), tennis clothing soiled with red clay.

16

Removing stains Remove/pretreat stains as soon as possible after they have occurred. First dab with a soapy solution. Do not rub. Then select the appropriate programme and wash the item. Stubborn/dried in stains can sometimes only be removed by washing several times. Sorting laundry according to the instructions on the care labels Only wash laundry that is labelled with the following care symbols:

abcde
hard wearing textiles, heat resistant textiles e.g. made from cotton or linen

fgh
for easy care textiles e.g. cotton, linen, synthetic materials or blended fabrics

kflg
for easy care, washable textiles e.g. silk, satin, synthetic materials or blended fabrics (e.g. curtains)

6k f l g
for hand and machine washable wool or wool rich textiles e.g. cashmere, mohair or angora, also suited for hand washable silk. Do not wash laundry items which bear the following care label in the washer dryer:

B = do not wash

17

Only dry laundry that is labelled with the following care symbols: E = tumble dry at normal heat setting (Normal drying) D = tumble dry at low heating setting (Delicate drying) i The following textiles should not be tumble dried: - Laundry marked with the care symbol F = do not tumble dry - Wollens or items containing wool. - Risk of shrinking! - Delicate fabric (silk, synthetic net curtains). - Risk of creasing! - Items containing foam rubber or similar material. - Items which have been treated with inflammable solvents, such as stain removes, petrol, paint thin ners. Explosion hazard! - Items still containing hair lacquer or similar sub stances. Dangerous vapors! - Dripping wet laundry. Waste of energy!

18

Loading the laundry

d Risk of explosion! Items of clothing that have been pretreated with solvent based cleaning agents, e.g. stain remover and dry cleaning spirit, represent an explosion hazard once loaded into the washer dryer. Before loading the laundry, rinse thoroughly by hand. Attention Foreign objects in the drum may damage the laundry. Before loading the laundry, check that there is no debris in the drum. q Open the washer dryer door.

q Unfold the sorted items of clothing and place them loosely into the drum. Mix large and small items. Laundry items which vary in size are more evenly distributed during the spin cycle. i Do not exceed recommended loads. Overloading will cause poor wash results and encourage creasing. q Close the washer dryer door. Take care not to trap any items of clothing between the loading door and rubber seal.

19

Detergents and cleaning products

Dosing detergent
d Risk of poisoning! Keep detergents and additives out of the reach of children. Dose detergent according to q the water hardness. You can find out the water hardness from your water utility company. q the amount of laundry. q the degree of soiling. Information on soiling can be found on page 15. q the specifications of the detergent manufacturer. The correct dosage reduces the impact on the environment and produces a good washing result. Pour liquid detergent into the corresponding dispenser. Too little detergent: - The laundry is not washed clean and eventually becomes grey and hard. - Greyish brown dots (grease spots) may stain the laundry. - The heating elements are calcifying. Too much detergent: - The environment is loaded. - Excessive froth may be generated during the wash cycle causing a reduction in the washing mechanism. This may be the cause of poor washing and rinsing results.

20

Adding detergent/ cleaning product

Dispenser I Detergent for prewash or starch. Dispenser II Detergent for main wash, water softener, pre soaking agent, bleach and stain removal product. Dispenser 2 Cleaning product, e.g. fabric softener or fabric conditioner (do not fill above the lower edge of the insert 1). i Concentrated or viscous fabric softener or fabric conditioner must be diluted with a little water before it is poured into the dispenser (prevents the overflow from becoming blocked). q Pull out the detergent drawer all the way. q Pour in detergent and/or cleaning product. q Close the detergent drawer.
