as indicated in the programme chart.
• Do not exceed the detergent dosages indicated in the detergent
manufacturer’s instructions. Use the Auto dosing function.
• Save energy by using a 60 °C instead of a 95 °C wash programme

Cotton
programme at 40 °C or 60 °C is recommended.

water content in the laundry before using a tumble dryer.
