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.
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).

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)

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 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/P Hand wash
(WOLLE/P Handwäsche) and SILK/P Hand wash (SEIDE/P Hand-
wäsche) programmes are suitable for this type of fabric.
Important! Fabrics which bear the care symbol

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.
