Instructions for usefor use
1 Safety
The safety of ELECTROLUX electrical appliances
conforms to the recognised technical regulations
and the legislation covering the safety of appliances.
However, as manufacturers, we still regard it as our
responsibility to inform you of the following safety
information.
Prior to initial start-up
• Refer to the ”Installation and Connection
Instructions” later in this user information.
• When the unit is delivered in winter months with
minus temperatures: Store the washing machine
for 24 hours at room temperature before putting it
into operation.
Correct Use
• The washing machine is only designed for normal
domestic washing. If the unit is used for purposes
other than that for which it is designed, the manu-
facturer can accept no liability for any resulting
damages.
• For safety reasons, conversions or modifications
to the washing machine are not permissible.
• Use only detergents which are suitable for wash-
ing machines. Follow the washing detergent man-
ufacturer's instructions.
• The washing must not contain any flammable sol-
vents. Also remember this when washing pre-
cleaned washing.
• Do not use the washing machine for chemical
cleaning.
• Dyes/dye removers may only be used in washing
machines if the manufacturer expressly allows
these products. We cannot be held liable for any
resulting damage.
• Use only water from the water mains. Use rainwa-
ter or service water only if it meets the require-
ments outlined in DIN1986 and DIN1988.
• Frost damage is not covered by the warranty! If
the washing machine is in a room which is at risk
from frost, an emergency emptying operation
must be carried out when there is a frost risk (see
the section ”Carry Out Emergency Emptying”).
Child Safety
• Packaging components (e.g. films, polystyrene)
can be hazardous to children. Risk of suffocation!
Keep packaging away from children.
• Children often cannot recognise the hazards
associated with handling electrical appliances.
Therefore, ensure the necessary supervision dur-
ing operation and do not allow children to play
with the washing machine – there is a risk that
children can get trapped inside.
• Ensure that children or small animals cannot
climb into the washing machine's drum.
• When disposing of the washing machine: Pull out
the mains plug, destroy the door lock, cut off the
electrical supply lead and throw away the plug
and the left-over cable. This means that children
at play cannot shut themselves inside and in so
doing be in danger.
General Safety
• Repairs to the washing machine may only be car-
ried out by qualified specialists. Incorrect repairs
may result in significant risk to the user. If repairs
are necessary, consult our customer service or
your specialist dealer.
• Never use the washing machine if the mains
cable is damaged or the conrol panel, work sur-
face or base panel area are so badly damaged
that the interior of the unit is openly accessible.
• Switch off the washing machine before carrying
out cleaning, care and maintenance work. Also
pull the mains plug out of the socket or, – if it is
permanently connected, – switch off the circuit
breaker at the household power distribution box
or completely remove the screw-in fuse.
• Never pull the cable to remove the plug from the
socket. Always
pull the plug itself.
• Multiple connectors, couplings and extension
cables must not be used. There is a risk of fire
with overheating!
• Do not spray down the washing machine with a
water jet. Risk of electric shock!
• The glass in the door becomes hot in the case of
wash programmes with high temperatures. Do
not touch!
• Allow the washing solution to cool before carrying
out an emergency emptying operation or cleaning
the drain pump.
• Small animals can chew the power cables and
water hoses. Risk of electric shock and danger of
water damage! Keep small animals away from the
washing machine.

2 Disposal
Dispose the packing material!
Dispose of your washing machine's packaging cor-
rectly. All the packaging materials used are harmless
to the environment and can be recycled.
• Plastic parts are marked with standard interna-
tional abbreviations:
• Cardboard packaging is manufactured from recy-
cled paper and should be deposited in the waste
paper collection for recycling.
Dispose the old appliance!
When you finally put your appliance out of operation,
please bring it to your nearest recycling centre or to
your dealer.
2 Environment Tipsronment Tips
• The pre-wash cycle is not required for averagely
dirty washing. This saves washing powder/liquid,
water and time (and does not harm the environ-
ment).
• The washing machine is especially economical
when you fully utilise the stated filling quantities.
• For small amounts of washing, use only half to
two thirds the recommended amount of washing
powder/liquid.
• Suitable pretreatment enables stains and small
amounts of dirt to be removed. You can then
wash at a lower temperature.
• Use the energy-saving program to wash gar-
ments which are lightly to moderately dirty.
• There is often no need for conditioner. Try it once!
If you use a dryer, your washing will become soft
and velvety even without conditioner.
• In the case of medium to high water hardness,
(hardness range II or higher, see ”Washing and
Care Agents”), you should use water softener.
The washing powder/liquid can then always be
metered for hardness range I (= soft).
>PE< for polyethylene, e.g. sheet wrapping
material
>PS< for polystyrene, e.g. padding material
(always CFC-free)
>POM< for polyoxymethylene, e.g. plastic clips

metal rollers or small, burred rollers or tie them in
a net or in a bag. We cannot accept any liability
for damage.
• Do not wash coloureds and whites together in
one washing cycle. Otherwise, whites will discol-
our or turn grey.
• New coloureds often contain surplus dye. It is
best to wash such items separately the first time.
• Mix small and large items of washing! This
speeds up theeffect of washing and the washing
is more favourably distributed during spinning.
• Loosen up the washing before loading it into the
washing machine.
• Put the washing into the drum folded out.
• Pay attention to the care instructions ”Wash sep-
arately” and ”Wash separately several times”!
Types of washing and care symbols
Care symbols help you to choose the correct wash
programme. Washing should be sorted by type and
according to care symbols. The temperatures indi-
cated on the care symbols are the maximum wash
temperatures.
Cottons ç
Cotton and linen items with this care symbol are not
sensitive to machine washing or high temperatures.
The COTTONS/LINENS (Koch-/Buntwäsche, Couleurs)
programme is suitable for this type of washing.
Coloureds èë
Cotton and linen items with this care symbol are not
sensitive to machine washing. The COTTONS/LIN-
ENS (Koch-/Buntwäsche, Couleurs) programme is
suitable for this type of washing.
Easy-Care washing êí
Materials such as fine cotton, cotton-blend fabrics,
viscose and synthetics with these care symbols
require a gentler machine wash. The EASYCARE/
EASY IRON (Pflegeleicht/Leichtbügeln, Textiles
Mélanges/Facile à Repasser) programme is suitable
for this type of washing.
Delicates ì
Materials such as layered fibres, microfibres, viscose,
synthetics and net curtains with this care symbol
require careful handling. The DELICATES (Fein-
wäsche, Délicat) programme is suitable for this types
of washing.
Wool/Silk and especially sensitive wash-
ing 9ìï
Fabrics such as wool, wool blends and silk with
these care symbols are particularly sensitive to
machine washing. The WOOL/SILK (Wolle/Seide,
Laine/Soie) P (Handwash) programme is suitable for
these types of fabrics.
Important. Materials with the care symbol
ñ
(Do
not wash) must not be washed in the washing
machine.

Washing Detergents and Care Agents
Which washing detergent and care
agent?
Use only washing detergents and care agents which
are suitable for use in washing machines. Always fol-
low the manufacturer's instructions.
How much washing detergent and
care agent?
The amount to be used depends on:
• the dirtiness of the washing
• the hardness category of the mains water supply
• the filling quantity
2
If the detergent manufacturer gives no
details of the dosing quantities for minimum
loads, add one third less for half loads and,
in the case of very small loads and for EASY
IRON (Leichtbügeln, Fâcile à Repasser), only
half the amount of detergent recommended
for a full load.
Refer to the detergent/care agent manufacturer's
instructions on use and dosage.
Water Softener
For medium to high water hardness (hardness cate-
gory II or higher) you should use water softener. Pay
attention to the manufacturer's instructions. Always
then meter detergent for hardness category I (= soft).
The responsible water works can provide information
on the local water hardness.
2
Since the water softener is added before the
main washing detergent, (water pre-soften-
ing), eighty percent of the softener quantity
stated on the package is sufficient.
Water Hardness Details
Hardness Category
Water Hardness °dH
(degrees German hardness)
Water Hardness in mmol/l
(millimol per litre)
I – soft 0 - 7 up to 1.3
II – medium hard 7 - 14 1.3 - 2.5
III – hard 14 - 21 2.5 - 3.8
IV – very hard over 21 over 3.8

Brief guide
A wash cycle consists of the following steps:
1. Open the door and load the washing.
2. Close the door.
3. Add detergent/additives.
4. Set the appropriate wash programme:
– Set the programme and temperature using the
programme knob
– Set additional programme functions as required.
5. Change the Spin Speed / press RINSE HOLD
(Spülstopp, Arrêt Cuvé Pleine) as necessary.
6. Start the wash programme by pressing the
START/PAUSE (Start/Pause, Marche / Pause)
button.
After the wash programme is complete:
Important! If the wash cycle was stopped with Rinse
Hold, select DRAIN (Pumpen, Vidange) or SPIN
(Schleudern, Essorage) before opening the door.
7. Open the door and take out the washing.
The door can be opened after the DOOR (Tür,
Porte) light goes off and the END (Ende, Fin) light
has come on.
8. Switch off the washing machine: Turn the pro-
gramme knob to OFF (Aus, Arrêt).

If the END (Ende, Fin) light flashes 4 times
and an acoustic signal sounds 4 times, it
means there was an attempt to start a wash
programme without closing the door prop-
erly. If this happens, push the door in firmly
and start the wash programme again.
