OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1 Safety

The safety standards of AEG electric appliances are in keeping with the recognised rules of technology and the law governing the safety of appliances. Nevertheless as a manufacturer we are committed to familiarise you with the following safety instructions:

Prior to initial start-up

Observe the "Installation and Connection Instructions" below in these user instructions.

If the appliance is delivered during the winter and temperatures are below freezing, allow the appliance to stand at room temperature for 24 hours before operation

Intended use

The washing machine is intended exclusively for the washing of normal household washing in the home. If the appliance is used for purposes other than those intended, or if it is improperly operated, the manufacturer can assume no liability for damages which may occur.

Additions or modifications to the washing machine are strictly forbidden due to safety reasons.

Use only those detergents which are suitable for the washing machine. Observe instructions provided by the detergent manufacturer.

Laundry to be washed may not contain any flammable solvents. This must also be taken into consideration when washing pre-washed laundry.

Do not use the washing machine for dry-cleaning.

Dyes and bleaches may only be used in the washing machine if such use has been expressly endorsed by the manufacturer of these products. We can assume no liability for damages which may occur.

Use tap water only. Rain water and industrial water may only be used if they fulfil requirements in accordance with DIN1986 and DIN1988.

Damage due to frost is not covered by the guarantee! If the washing machine is located in a room in which below freezing temperatures might occur, emergency draining must be carried out if danger of freezing occurs (see "Emergency Draining"). Furthermore, the inlet hose must be disconnected from the tap and laid on the floor.

Operating instructions

Safety of children

Packaging materials (e.g. sheet and Styrofoam) can be dangerous for children. Danger of asphyxiation! Keep packaging materials at a safe distance from children.

Children are often unable to recognise the dangers involved with electrical appliances. Provide for proper supervision during operation, and do not allow children to play with the washing machine – the danger exists that a child might lock itself into the appliance.

Make certain that children or small animals do not climb into the drum of the washing machine.

If the washing machine needs to be disposed of, remove the mains plug, destroy the door lock, cut off the electrical cable and dispose of the plug and remaining cable separately. In this way children are prevented from locking themselves in and are not exposed life threatening danger.

General Safety

Repairs to the washing machine may only be carried out by trained personnel. Improper repairs can give rise to significant hazards. If repairs are required, contact customer service or your dealer.

Never use the washing machine if the mains cable is damaged or the control panel, the work surface, or the plinth are damaged to such an extent that components inside the machine are openly accessible.

Switch off the washing machine before cleaning, maintenance and servicing. In addition, unplug from the mains or – in the case of permanent connection – pull the circuit breaker, or completely remove screw type fuses.

Never remove the mains plug by pulling on the cable. Always grip the plug.

Multi-way plugs / connectors and extension cables must not be used.

This could constitute a safety hazard!

Do not clean the washing machine with a jet of water. There is a risk of electric shock!

When high temperature washing programs are selected, the glass in the door becomes hot. Do not touch!

Leave the water in the machine to cool down before performing an emergency drain or cleaning the circulation pump.

Small animals may gnaw at electrical power cables and water hoses. There is a risk of electric shock and damage from water leaks! Keep small animals away from the washing machine.

Operating instructions

2 Disposal

Dispose of the packaging!

Dispose of washing machine packaging materials properly. All packaging materials are environmentally sound and can be safely disposed of, or burned in a refuse incineration plant.

The plastic parts can be reused:

The external plastic cover and the bags inside are made of polyethylene (marking >PE<).

The padding is made of CFC free expanded polystyrene (marking >PS<).

Corrugated components are made from recycled paper and should be disposed of at a paper recycling station.

Dispose of your old appliance!

If, at some point in time, the service life of the appliance has expired, please take it to your nearest recycling centre, or to your appliance dealer, who will accept the old appliance for a minimal fee.

2Environmental protection tips

No pre-wash is required for normally soiled washing. This saves you detergent, water and time (and is good for the environment!).

If the indicated load capacities are taken full advantage of, the washing machine is especially efficient.

For small loads, use only one half to one third of the recommended detergent quantity.

Stains and soiling confined to given areas can be removed by means of appropriate pre-treatment. You can then wash at lower temperatures.

Wash lightly to medium soiled cottons with the energy saving program.

Softeners are often not required. Try it! If you use a dryer, your washing will be soft and fluffy, even without softeners.

A water softener should be used for water within a hardness range of mid to high (as of hardness level II, see "Detergents and Conditioners"). Detergent can then always be dosed for water hardness level I (= soft).

Operating instructions

Before Washing for the First Time

0 1. Pull the detergent drawer out from the control panel a little.

2.Pour around 1 litre of water into the washing machine via the detergent drawer. This will ensure when the washing machine is started that the water container is closed and that the ECO valve can function correctly.

3.Perform a washing cycle without any washing (MAIN WASH 95, with half the normal dose of detergent).

This serves to remove residues resulting from production of the appliance from the drum and the water container.

Prepare washing cycle

Sort washing and prepare

Sort washing according to care symbol and type (see "Washing types and care symbols").

Empty all pockets.

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

In order to prevent bunching up of washing and damage to washing, close zippers, button up duvets and pillow cases, and tie up loose ends from, for example, aprons.

Turn articles with double layered textiles inside out (sleeping bags, anoraks etc.).

Coloured, knitted fabrics, as well as wool and textiles with appliqués should be turned 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.

Treat net curtains particularly carefully. Remove metal curtain rail rollers or burred plastic rollers, or wrap these in a net or bag.

We cannot accept any liability for damage.

Do not wash coloured and white washing together. White washing will otherwise turn grey.

New, coloured washing often contains excessive dye. Wash these items separately the first time.

13

Operating instructions

Mix small and large articles of washing! This improves washing efficiency, and the washing is more favourably distributed during the spin cycle.

Fluff washing before placing into the washing machine.

Do not place folded washing into the drum.

Observe tips for proper care such as "wash separately" and "wash separately several times"!.

Washing Types and Care Symbols

Care symbols assist in the selection of the correct washing program. Washing should be sorted according to type and care symbol. The temperatures indicated in the care symbols are maximum temperatures.

Cottons ç

Cotton and linen fabrics with this care symbol are resistant to the mechanical action of the washing machine and high temperatures. The COTTONS/LINEN program is suitable for this type of washing.

Linen è ë

Cotton and linen fabrics with this care symbol are resistant to the mechanical action of the washing machine. The COTTONS/LINEN program is suitable for this type of washing.

Easy-care washing ê í î
