• The "wash and dry" programme is suitable for washing normally
soiled cotton laundry, which is washable at 40°C or 60°C, in the
same cycle, and for drying this laundry so that it can be immediately
tidied away. It is used to assess the appliance's compliance with
the European ecodesign legislation.
• Loading the household washing machine to the maximum
capacity for each programme, as recommended in the appliance's
instructions, helps to save energy and water.
• Follow the recommendations regarding the recommended types
of washing powder for the different washing programmes and
temperatures specified in the appliance's instructions.
• If the powder or liquid washing product or additive (fabric softener,
etc.) appears to be too compact or too thick after prolonged
storage, break up the powder, or dilute the washing liquid with
clean water, before pouring it into the appropriate compartment of
the appliance so as not to obstruct the compartment and prevent
any overflow when the water is added.
