    Protection of the environment/Conservation tips– Always fill the washing machine with a maximum amo unt of 
    laundry for the relevant programme.
    – Wash normally soiled laundry without a pre-wash. 
    – Instead of  ÄÚÝÞÝÙ (Cottons) 90 °C , choose the programme  
    ÄÚÝÞÝÙ  (Cottons) 60 °C  with the additional function  jEco 
    Perfect . Comparable cleaning result with significantly lowe r 
    energy consumption.
    – Measure the detergent according to the manufacture rs 
    instructions and water hardness.
    – If the laundry is then dried in the tumble dryer, s elect the spin 
    speed according to the instructions of the dryer ma nufacturer.

    Protection of the environment/Conservation tips– Always fill the washing machine with a maximum amo unt of 
    laundry for the relevant programme.
    – Wash normally soiled laundry without a pre-wash. 
    – Instead of  ÄÚÝÞÝÙ (Cottons) 90 °C , choose the programme 
    ÄÚÝÞÝÙ  (Cottons) 60 °C  with the additional function  jEco 
    Perfect . Comparable cleaning result with significantly lowe r 
    energy consumption.
    – Measure the detergent according to the manufacture rs 
    instructions and water hardness.
    – If the laundry is then dried in the tumble dryer, s elect the spin 
    speed according to the instructions of the dryer ma nufacturer.
