Steam can be used for dried, washed or worn once laundry. These pro­grammes can reduce creases and odours and make your laundry more smooth. Do not use any detergent. If necessary, remove stains by washing or us­ing localized stain removal. Steam programmes do not perform any hygienic cycle. Do not set the Steam programme for this type of items:
• items where it is not specified on the care label as being suitable for tumble-drying
• all items that have plastic, metal, wooden parts or alike.
1)
If you set a Steam programme with dried laundry, at the end of the cycle the laundry feels humid. It is better to expose items to the open air for about 10 minutes to remove the humidity. When the programme is completed, quickly remove the laundry from the drum. After a steam cycle, items may to be ironed anyway, but with less effort!

During the washing phase the programme duration is automatically calcula­ted and can greatly be reduced if the laundry load is lower than the maxi­mum load capacity (e.g. Cotton 60°C, maximum load capacity 9 kg, the pro­gramme duration exceeds 2 hours; real load 1 kg, the programme duration don’t reach 1 hour). When the appliance is calculating the real programme duration a dot blinks in the display.

12.1 The laundry load
• Divide the laundry in: white, coloured, synthetics, delicates and wool.
• Obey the washing instructions that are on the laundry care labels.
• Do not wash together white and col­oured items.
• Some coloured items can discolour with the first wash. We recommend that you wash them separately for the first times.
• Button up pillowcases, close zippers, hooks and poppers. Tie up belts.
• Empty the pockets and unfold the items.
• Turn inside out multilayered fabrics, wool and items with painted illustra­tions.
• Remove hard stains.
• Wash with a special detergent heavy soil stains.
• Be careful with the curtains. Remove the hooks or put the curtains in a washing bag or pillowcase.
• Do not wash in the appliance : – Laundry without hems or with cuts – Underwired bras. – Use a washing bag to wash small
items.
• A very small load can cause balance problems with the spin phase. If this occurs, adjust manually the items in the tub and start the spin phase again.
12.2 Stubborn stains
For some stains, water and detergent is not sufficient. We recommend that you remove these stains before you put the items in the appliance. Special stain removers are available. Use the special stain remover that is applica­ble to the type of stain and fabric.
12.3 Detergents and additives
• Only use detergents and additives specially made for washing machines.
Page 26
www.aeg.com
26
• Do not mix different types of deter­gents.
• To help the environment, do not use more than the correct quantity of de­tergent.
• Obey the instructions that you find on the on packaging of these products.
• Use the correct products for the type and colour of the fabric, the pro­gramme temperature and the level of soil.
• If you use liquid detergents, do not set the prewash phase.
• If your appliance has not the deter­gent dispenser with the flap device, add the liquid detergents with a dos­ing ball.
use a water softener for washing ma­chines. In areas where the water hard­ness is soft it is not necessary to use a water softener. To know the water hardness in your area, contact your local water authority. Obey the instructions that you find on the packaging of the products. Equivalent scales measure the water hardness:
• German degrees (°dH).
• French degrees (°TH).
• mmol/l (millimol for each litre - inter­national unit for the hardness of wa­ter).
• Clarke degrees.
12.4 Water hardness
If the water hardness in your area is high or moderate, we recommend that you

12.5 Ecological hints
To help the environment, use less water and energy, obey these instructions:
• Set a programme without the prewash phase to wash laundry with normal soil.
• Always start a washing programme with the maximum load of laundry.
• If necessary, use a stain remover when you set a programme with a low tem­perature.
• To use the correct quantity of the de­tergent, check the water hardness of your domestic system
12.6 Drying hints
Prepare the drying cycle
• Open the water tap.

• Connect the hose to the appliance. Turn the inlet hose only left or right. Loose the ring nut to set it in the cor­rect position.
• Connect the water inlet hose to the cold water tap with 3/4 thread.
CAUTION!
Make sure that there are no leaks from the couplings.
Do not use an extension hose if the inlet hose is too short. Con­tact the service centre for the re­placement of the inlet hose.
Water pressure
The appliance works correctly if the wa­ter pressure is not less than 0.05 MPa (0.5 bar).
If you can not connect the water inlet hose to the cold water tap of the primary hydraulic system, connect it to your do­mestic cold water storage system. Make sure not to have more than a dis­tance of 5.02 m (16.5 ft) between the ap­pliance inlet hose and the bottom of the water storage tank.

15.5 Water drainage
There are different procedures to con­nect the drain hose:
With the plastic hose guide.
ENGLISH 39
The inlet hose has a water stop device. This device prevents water leaks in the hose because of its natural ageing. The red sector in the window «A» shows this fault . If this occur, close the water tap and contact the service centre to replace the hose.
• On the edge of a sink.
• Make sure that the plastic guide can­not move when the appliance drains. Attach the guide to the water tap or the wall.
• To a stand pipe with vent-hole. Refer to the illustration. Directly into a
drain pipe at a height of not less than 60 cm (23.6”) and not more than 100 cm (39.3”). The end of the drain hose must always be ventilated , i.e. the in­ner diameter of the drainpipe (min. 38 mm — min. 1.5”) must be larger than the external diameter of the drain hose.

• If the end of the drain hose is this (see the drawing), you can push it directly into the stand pipe.
Without the plastic hose guide.
• To a sink spigot. Refer to the illustration. Put the drain
hose in the spigot and tighten it with a clip. Make sure that the drain hose makes a loop to prevent that remain­ing particles go in the appliance from the sink.
• Directly to a built-in drain pipe in the room wall and tighten it with a clip.
You can extend the drain hose to maximum 400 cm. Contact the service centre for the other drain hose and the extension.
