2 Disposal
Packaging
Dispose of the packaging material correctly. All packaging materials
used are environmentally friendly and can be disposed of without any
danger to the environment.
• Plastic parts can be recycled and are identified as follows:
• Cardboard packaging is manufactured from recycled paper and
should be deposited in the waste paper collection for recycling.
When disposing of the washing machine!
Cut off the mains cable and destroy the plug. Disable the door catch to
prevent young children becoming trapped inside. Use an authorised
disposal site.
2 Environmental tips
• It is not usually necessary to Pre-wash or Soak normally soiled wash-
ing. This will save you detergent, water and time (and protect the en-
vironment as well).
• It is more economical to wash full loads.
• When washing small loads, use half to two thirds the recommended
quantity of detergent.
• Pre-treat stains, if necessary, and then wash at a lower temperature.
• It can be possible to wash without fabric softeners, if clothes are
dried in a tumble dryer, as this can give soft and fluffy results.
• In hard water areas, the use of a water softening agent can reduce
the amount of detergent necessary. See manufacturer’s recommen-
dations.

Programme selector
The programme selector is used
to select the type of wash cycle
(for example, water level, drum
movement, number of rinses, spin
speed) and the water temperature
according to type of washing.

Switches the washing machine off;
at all other positions the machine
is ON.
To amend programme settings selected by mistake, turn the programme
selector to OFF. This restores the original settings.
COTTONS/LINEN, EASY-CARES
Wash programme from 20 °C to 95 °C, generally used for all Cottons/
Coloureds (cotton/linen), Easy-Cares (mixed fibres, for example cotton/
polyester) and synthetics. The programme is suitable for different fab-
rics and loads. Once a temperature has been set, the machine will auto-
matically select a COTTONS/LINEN or EASY-CARES programme as
appropriate. If there are Easy-Cares only, do not exceed the load weight
of 2.5 kg, to avoid excessive creasing.

STARCHING
Separate starching, separate conditioning, separate treatment of damp
clothes (1 rinse, liquid conditioner is washed in from the æ compart-
ment, spin).
This can also be selected if a separate rinse is necessary. In this case,
you do not need to add anything to the compartment.
DRAIN
To drain the water after a rinse hold (without spinning).
3
The effect of Rinse Hold is that the washing is left to soak in the last
rinse water; it is not spun.
SPIN
Draining the water after a Rinse Hold and Spin, or separate spinning of
hand-washed Cottons/Coloureds and Easy-Cares.
SHORT SPIN
Draining the water after a Rinse Hold and Short Spin, or separate Short
Spin of delicate fabrics (delicates, woollens) at low spin speed.
DELICATES
Wash programme for Delicates at 30 °C or 40 °C.
WOOL / P (Handwash)
Wash programme (cold, up to 40 °C) for machine-washable wool and
hand-washable wool items carrying the ï care symbol. (Handwash).
SILK / P (Handwash)
Wash programme at 30 °C for hand and machine-washable silk.
3
Since silk is a very delicate material, we recommend washing only one
item at a time (if possible), and never washing together with other,
rougher fabrics. An even more gentle treatment can be selected for ex-
tremely delicate silk items, using the TIME SAVER button.
FASHION
A special care programme at 40 °C, for modern textiles such as Viscose,
Modal, Cupro, Lyocell, providing gentler handling than the DELICATES
programme, and a stronger cleaning action than the Handwash pro-
gramme.
REFRESH
A special programme of approx. 20 minutes at a maximum temperature
of 30 °C for quick washing of items such as sports wear, which have
been worn once and are only slightly soiled.
Operating Instructions
12
EASY IRON
Wash programme at 40 °C for easy-care items which, after this pro-
gramme, are to be ironed only lightly or not at all.
2
ENERGY SAVING
Special energy and water saving programme at about 60 °C, for lightly
to normally soiled Cottons/Coloureds (cotton/linen), with extended
wash time.
Programme Option Buttons
The programme option buttons are used to adapt
the programme to suit the degree of soiling of the
wash. The additional PRE WASH and STAIN options
are not needed for normally soiled washing. The
different functions can be combined together, de-
pending on the programme.
PRE WASH (Pre-wash/Soaking)
Cold pre-wash before the main wash cycle, which
follows automatically. The DELAY TIMER button
changes Pre-wash to warm soaking.
SENSITIVE
Special extra programme function that gives an extra rinse along with
better fabric care (less drum movement). This is ideal when frequent
washes are necessary, for example in cases of sensitive skin. RINSE+ can
still be selected as well.
STAIN
For heavily soiled or stained washing. (In-wash stain treatment prod-
ucts (powder or tablets) are washed in at the optimum time as the pro-
gramme progresses.)

Consumption Values and Programme Times
The following table gives the values for selected programmes under
standard conditions. Consumption values depend on the selected pro-
gramme settings (optional functions), washing type and quantity, water
pressure, such as water inlet temperature, water hardness, room tem-
perature or detergent used, etc. The tables do, however, give a helpful
guide for normal household use.
Wash Time Display
3
The multi-display indicates the estimated du-
ration, in minutes, of the programme.
These timings are estimates and can vary.
During the programme countdown, the re-
maining time can be recalculated due to any of the following:
incoming water temperature, type and quantity of laundry, out of bal-
ance spin detection and foam detection.

What does "UPDATE" mean?
The control system of your washing machine is fully electronic. The
software which determines this control system can be reprogrammed.
If a further improvement to washing technology is introduced by AEG,
then your machine can be updated. The cost of the UPDATE will be ad-
vised at the time of the request.
For further information regarding this, please contact the AEG Cus-
tomer Care Department.
Anti-flood Aqua Control + Aqua Alarm+ Aqua Alarm
The inlet hose has a mechanical built in safety device. In the event of
the filling hose failing, the safety device will automatically shut off the
water supply.
In the event of a leak within the machine the float switch, which is
mounted in the base of the appliance, will operate the drain pump and
an audible signal will be heard
The system will operate as long as the appliance is connected to the
mains electricity supply, even if the programme selector is in the off
position.
Operating Instructions
16
Before the first wash
0 Run a washing programme without laundry (selecting COTTONS/LINEN,
EASY-CARES 95, with half the normal amount of detergent).
This removes any residues from the drum which may have been left
during manufacturing.
Preparing for a wash cycle
Sorting and preparing the washing
• Sort the washing according to care symbols (see Section "Types of
washing and care symbols").
• Empty out the pockets.
• Remove metal objects (such as paper clips, safety pins, etc.).
• To avoid damage and tangling: close zips, button pillow-cases and
duvet covers, tie together loose tapes and strings (for example on
aprons).
• Turn items with double-layered fabrics inside out (sleeping bags, ano-
raks, etc.).
• Knitted coloured fabrics such as woollens and other materials with
decorations or jewellry should also be turned inside out.
• Wash small, delicate items (such as baby's socks, tights, bras, etc.) in a
washing net, cushion cover with a zip or in large socks.
• Special care must be taken with net curtains. Remove metal or plastic
rollers liable to snag or tie the curtains up in a net or bag. We cannot
accept liability for any damage.
• Coloured and white washing should not be washed together in the
same cycle. Otherwise, whites can discolour or turn grey.
• New coloured garments often have excess dye. It is better to wash
these items separately for the first time.
• Mix large items with smaller ones. This gives more effective washing
and distributes items better during the spin cycle.
• Shake out the washing before loading it into the washing machine.
• Separate items from one another before placing in the drum.
• Pay attention to care advice such as "Wash separately" or "Wash sep-
arately 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 indicated on the care symbols are the maximum wash
temperatures.
Cottons ç
Cotton and linen items with this care symbol are not sensitive to ma-
chine washing or high temperatures. The COTTONS/LINEN, EASY-CARES
programme is suitable for this type of washing.
Coloureds èë
Cotton and linen items with this care symbol are not sensitive to ma-
chine washing. The COTTONS/LINEN, EASY-CARES programme is suita-
ble for this type of washing.
Easy-Care washing êí
Materials such as fine cotton, cotton-blend fabrics and synthetics with
these care symbols require a gentler machine wash. The COTTONS/
LINEN, EASY-CARES and EASY-IRON programmes are suitable for these
types of washing.
Delicates ì
Materials such as layered fibres, microfibres, synthetics and net curtains
with this care symbol require careful handling. The DELICATES pro-
gramme is suitable for this types of washing.
Viscose íì
Modern fabrics such as Viscose, Cupro, Lyocell, Modal, etc. need partic-
ularly careful handling. The FASHION programme is suitable for this
type of washing.
Wool, silk and especially sensitive washing 9ìï
Fabrics like wool, wool blends and silk with these care symbols are par-

Detergent and Conditioners
Which detergent and conditioners?
Only use detergents and conditioners that are suitable for use in wash-
ing machines. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Quantities of detergent and conditioners?
The quantity to be used will depend on:
• degree of soiling of the washing
• degree of hardness of the water supply
• load
2
If the manufacturer does not indicate the amounts to use for smaller
loads, for half-loads use a third less than the amount recommended for
a full load, and for smaller loads and EASY IRON use half the amount
recommended for a full load.
Please follow the detergent and conditioner manufacturers’ instruc-
tions for use and dosing recommendations.
Water softening
For medium to high water hardness (hardness class II upwards) a water
softening agent can be used. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions.
Then always add the appropriate amount of detergent (underdosing)
for hardness class I (soft). Your local Water Authority can advise you on
the hardness of the water in your area.
