Instructions for use

1 Safety

The safety of AEG electrical appliances conforms to the recognised

technical regulations and the legislation covering the safety of appli-

ances. However, as manufacturers, we still regard it as our responsibility

to inform you of the following safety information.

Before Putting into Operation for the First Time

• Refer to the ”Installation and Connection Instructions” later in this

user information.

• When the unit is delivered in winter months with minus tempera-

tures: 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 de-

signed, the manufacturer can accept no liability for any resulting

damages.

• For safety reasons, conversions or modifications to the washing ma-

chine are not permissible.

• Use only detergents which are suitable for washing machines. Follow

the washing detergent manufacturer's instructions.

• The washing must not contain any flammable solvents. Also remem-

ber 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 lia-

ble for any resulting damage.

• Use only water from the water mains. Use rainwater or service water

only if it meets the requirements 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 oper-

ation must be carried out when there is a frost risk (see the section

”Carry Out Emergency Emptying”).

Instructions for use

7

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 ma-

chine – 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, de-

stroy 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 carried out by skilled

persons. Incorrect repairs can cause significant hazards. If repairs are

necessary, consult our Customer Service or your specialist dealer.

• Never put the washing machine into operation if the mains cable is

damaged or if the control panel, work top or base area are damaged

in such a way that the inside of the unit is open and 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 LS switch in the

fuse box or completely unscrew the screw-in fuse.

• If the appliance will be out of operation for an extended period of

time, unplug it from the mains.

• 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 fire risk with overheating!

• Do not spray down the washing machine with a water jet. Electric

shock risk!

• The glass in the filling door becomes hot in the case of washing pro-

grams with high temperatures. Do not touch!

• Allow the washing solution to cool down before emergency emptying

of the unit, before cleaning or before emergency opening of the fill-

ing door.

• 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.

Instructions for use

2 Disposal

Dispose the packing material!

Dispose of your washing machine's packaging correctly. All the packag-

ing materials used are harmless to the environment and can be recy-

cled.

• Plastic parts are marked with standard international abbreviations:

• Cardboard packaging is manufactured from recycled 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 Environmental Tips

• You do not need to use a pre wash cycle or soak for washing with av-

erage soiling. This saves detergent, water and time (and protects the

environment).

• When loaded to the capacities indicated the washing machine is es-

pecially efficient.

• For small loads, use only one half to two thirds of the recommended

quantity of detergent.

• By pre-treating stains and marks you will be able to wash at a lower

temperature.

• It is often possible to wash without using softener. Give it a try! If

you use a drier, your washing will be soft and fluffy even without a

softener.

• For medium to high water hardness (from hardness range II, see “De-

tergents and Conditioners”) you should use water softener. The

detergent can then always be dosed as for hardness range I (= soft).

COTTONS/LINEN, EASY-CARES (KOCH/BUNT, PFLEGELEICHT)

Wash programme between 20 °C and 95 °C, may be used for all cotton

and linen washing (cottons/linen), easy-cares (blended fabrics, e.g., cot-

ton/polyester) and synthetics. The wash programme adjusts to suit the

various types of fabric and quantities. If there is mostly cotton/linen a

suitable cottons/linen programme is carried out; if there is more syn-

thetic material a programme for easy-cares is selected. If the machine

is loaded exclusively with easy-cares the quantity should not exceed

2.5 kg in order to avoid creasing.

STARCHING (STÄRKEN)

Separate starching, separate conditioning and separate proofing of

damp washing (1 rinse, wash in liquid treatment agent from condi-

tioner chamber æ, spin cycle).

If required, a separate rinsing cycle can be carried out – just leave the

conditioner chamber empty.

PUMP OUT (PUMPEN)

The water is pumped away after a rinse hold (without spin).

3

Rinse hold means: the washing remains in the last rinsing water and is

not spun.

SPIN (SCHLEUDERN)

The water is pumped out at the end of a rinse hold and spin, or hand

washed cottons/linen and easy cares are spun separately.

SHORT SPIN (SCHONSCHLEUDERN)

The water is pumped out at the end of a rinse hold and short spin, or

delicate fabrics (delicates, woollens) are given a separate short spin at

low revs.

DELICATES (FEINWÄSCHE)

Wash programme for delicates at 30 °C or 40 °C.

WOOL (WOLLE)/ P Hand wash

Wash programme (cold to 40 °C) for machine-washable woollens and

for hand-washable woollen fabrics bearing the ï care symbol (hand

wash).

Instructions for use

12

SILK (SEIDE)/ P Hand wash

Wash programme at 30 °C for hand and machine-washable silk.

3

As silk is a very sensitive fabric, we recommend that you only wash one

item of clothing at a time, and that such items never be washed with

other rough fabrics. A still more gentle wash is possible for extremely

sensitive silk fabrics using the TIME SAVER (ZEIT SPAREN) button.

FASHION

A particularly gentle special programme at 40 °C for modern fabrics

such as viscose, modal, cupro, lyocell, with a gentler wash action than

the DELICATES (FEINWÄSCHE) programme, but washing more thor-

oughly than the hand wash programmes.

REFRESH (AUFFRISCHEN)

A special programme lasting approx. 20 minutes at 30 °C to give fabrics

a quick wash, such as, for example, very slightly soiled sports clothes

that have been worn only once.

EASY IRON (LEICHTBÜGELN)

Wash programme at 40 °C for easy-care fabrics that will only need to

be ironed lightly, if at all, at the conclusion of the programme.

2

ENERGY SAVING (ENERGIE SPAREN)

A wash programme at approx. 60 °C that is particularly economical on

electricity and water for slightly to normally soiled cotton and linen

washing (cottons/linen) with an extended washing time.

Programme Option Buttons

The programme option buttons are used to adapt

the wash programme to suit the degree of soiling of

the washing. For washing with a normal degree of

soiling such programme options as PRE WASH

(VORWÄSCHE) and STAIN (FLECKEN) are not neces-

sary.

The different functions can be combined with one

another depending on the programme.

PRE WASH (VORWÄSCHE)

(Pre wash/Soaking)

Cold pre wash prior to the main wash cycle that fol-

lows automatically. Using the DELAY TIMER (ZEITVORWAHL) button

pre wash can be changed to warm soaking.

Instructions for use

13

SENSITIVE (SENSITIV)

Special programme option with significantly increased rinse action

(additional rinse cycle) and at the same time increased gentleness to

fabrics (reduced drum movement). Ideal if items have to be washed

frequently such as when the wearer has sensitive skin. RINSE+

(SPÜLEN+) may be selected in addition.

STAIN (FLECKEN)

For treating heavily soiled or stained washing. (In-wash stain treatment

or tablets are washed in from the compartment at the optimal point in

the programme cycle.)

3

When WOOL (WOLLE)/P Hand wash has been set the programme op-

tions cannot be selected using the buttons.

TIME SAVER (ZEIT SPAREN)

Shortened wash programme for less soiled washing; may be selected in

three stages for the COTTONS/LINEN, EASY-CARES (KOCH/BUNT,

PFLEGELEICHT) programme and in two stages for other programmes.

The wash times for the wash programmes

depend on the usual washing practice and

the ambient conditions at the place of in-

stallation. The washing type and quantity,

the type of washing detergent, the water temperature and the room

temperature etc. can influence the duration of the wash programme.

What does “UPDATE” mean?

The wash programmes in your washing machine are controlled by soft-

ware.

New types of fabric or new detergents may require new wash pro-

grammes in the future. In most cases, the software can be adapted to

this.

For further information on a possible “update” please contact customer

service.

Water Protection Aqua Control +

Aqua Alarm

In the event of damage to the supply hose, the system blocks the fur-

ther supply of water to the unit directly st the water tap.

If water escapes elsewhere, the drainage pump automatically pumps

off – even if the unit is switched off. The washing machine merely has

to be connected to the electricity mains. When the water protection

system responds, a warning signal sounds at the same time.

Instructions for use

Before the First WashFirst Wash

0 Run a wash cycle without washing; COTTONS/LINEN, EASY-CARES

(KOCH/BUNT, PFLEGELEICHT) 95 programme with half the amount of

washing detergent. This removes any residues from the drum and

solution container which may have been left during manufacturing.

Preparing a Wash Load

Sorting and preparing a wash load

• Sort the washing according to care symbol (see “Washing Types and

Care Symbols”).

• Empty all pockets.

• Remove metal objects (paper clips, safety pins etc.).

• In order to prevent the washing tangling and being damaged: close

zippers, button up duvet covers and pillow cases, and tie up loose

straps such as from aprons.

• Turn articles with double layered fabric inside out (sleeping bags,

anoraks etc.).

• In the case of knitted coloured fabrics and also wool and fabrics with

jewellery attached: turn inside out.

• Place small and delicate articles (baby booties, stockings, bras etc.)

into a washing net, a pillow case with zipper, or in large socks before

washing.

• Handle curtains with particular care. Metal fittings or burred, plastic

fittings must be removed or tied into a net or bag. We cannot accept

liability for damage.

• Do not wash coloured and white washing together. This could trans-

fer colour to white washing or turn it grey.

• New coloured items often have an excess of colour. It is better to

wash such items separately the first time.

• Mix small and large items of washing. This improves the wash effi-

ciency and the washing is more evenly distributed during the spin cy-

cle.

• Shake out washing before placing into the washing machine.

• Do not place folded washing into the drum.

• Observe such washing instructions as “wash separately” and “wash

separately several times”!

Washing Types and Care Symbols

The care symbols help you choose the correct wash programme. Wash-

ing should be sorted according to type and care symbol. The tempera-

tures indicated in the care symbols are all maximum temperatures.

Cottons ç

Fabrics made from cotton and linen with this care symbol will with-

stand maximum wash actions and high temperatures. The COTTONS/

LINEN, EASY-CARES (KOCH/BUNT, PFLEGELEICHT) programme is suitable

for this type of washing.

Linen èë

Fabrics made from cotton and linen which carry this care symbol will

withstand maximum wash actions. The COTTONS/LINEN, EASY-CARES

(KOCH/BUNT, PFLEGELEICHT) programme is suitable for this type of

washing.

Easy-care washing êí

Fabrics such as treated cotton, cotton mixed fabrics and synthetics

which carry this care symbol need a gentler wash action. The COTTONS/

LINEN, EASY-CARES (KOCH/BUNT, PFLEGELEICHT) and EASY IRON

(LEICHTBÜGELN) programmes are available for this type of washing.

Delicates ì

Fabrics such as those with layered fibres, microfibres, synthetics and cur-

tains with this care symbol require particularly careful handling. The

DELICATES (FEINWÄSCHE) programme is appropriate for these types of

washing.

Viscose íì

Modern fabrics such as viscose, cupro, lyocell, modal and others require

particularly careful handling. The FASHION programme is appropriate

for these types of washing.

Woollens, silk and particularly delicate wash items 9ìï

Fabrics such as wool, wool mixtures and silk which carry these care

symbols require a very gentle wash cycle. The WOOL (WOLLE)/P Hand

wash and SILK (SEIDE)/P Hand wash programmes are suitable for this

type of fabric.

Important! Fabrics which bear the care symbol

ñ

may not be machine washed!

Detergent and Conditioners

Which detergent and conditioner?

Use only detergents and conditioners which are suitable for use in au-

tomatic washing machines. Always follow the manufacturer's instruc-

tions.

How much detergent and conditioner?

The quantity required depends upon:

• the extent to which the washing is soiled

• the degree of hardness of the mains water

• the amount of washing

2

Should the detergent manufacturer not specify the dosage quantity

for less than full loads, reduce the detergent accordingly: for a half

load reduce the quantity by one third; for a small load or EASY IRON

(LEICHTBÜGELN) reduce the quantity by one half of the quantity rec-

ommended for a full load. Observe the instructions for use and dosing

provided by the detergent and conditioner manufacturer.

Water Softener

For medium to high water hardness (hardness category II or higher) you

should use water softener. Pay attention to the manufacturer's instruc-

tions. 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-softening), eighty percent of the softener quantity stated on

the package is sufficient.
