Safety instructions
1 Safety instructions
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:
General safety
• Repairs to the washing machine may only be carried out by qualified
personnel. As a result of incorrect repairs considerable dangers for the
user may result. Please contact our customer service department or
an authorised AEG dealer in the event of repairs being necessary.
• Never start the washing machine if the mains flex is damaged or the
control panel, work top or base area are so damaged that the inside
of the washing machine is accessible.
• Switch off the washing machine before carrying out any cleaning,
care and maintenance work! You can make totally sure by pulling the
mains plug out of the socket or - if permanently connected – by
switching off the fuse switch in the fuse box or by unscrewing the
plug fuse right out.
• Multiway plugs, joints and extension cables must not be used. There is
risk of overheating!
• Never use the flex to pull the plug out of the socket but pull the
actual plug.
• Do not spray the washing machine with a water jet – danger of an
electric shock!
• During washing programs at a high temperature, the glass of the
door heats up. Do not touch!
• Allow the suds to cool down before cleaning the pump or carrying
out emergency emptying.
• Small animals can nibble at power cables and water hoses. Electric
shock hazard and danger of damages from water!
Installation, connection and initial operation
• Please follow the separate Installation and connection instructions.
• Run the first washing cycle without washing (t / Cottons 95, with
half the amount of washing powder) to remove residues on the drum
and suds container caused during production.
5
Safety instructions
• If the machine is delivered during the winter at freezing temperatures: store the washing machine for 24 hours at room temperature
before starting it.
Safety of children
• Often children are not aware of the dangers involved in handling
electrical equipment. Therefore please ensure they are adequately
supervised whilst the appliance is on and do not allow children to
play with the washing machine – there is a risk that the children may
lock themselves in the appliance.
• Packaging (e.g. plastic films, polystyrene) could be dangerous for children – danger of suffocation! Keep packaging away from children.
• Please make sure that children or small animals do not climb into the
drum of the washing machine.
• When disposing of the washing machine pull out the plug, cut off the
flex, dispose of the plug and remaining flex and destroy the door
lock. This hinders children from locking themselves in and endangering their lives.
Intended use
• Only use the washing machine to wash normal domestic washing. If
the washing machine is used for any other purpose or is incorrectly
used, the manufacturer adopts no liability for any damages which
may result.
• Conversions or changes to washing machines are not permitted due
to safety reasons.
• Only use washing powder which is suitable for washing machines.
Please follow the instructions of the washing powder manufacturers.
• The washing may not contain any flammable solvents.
Please observe this above all when washing prewashed laundry.
• Do not use your washing machine for dry cleaning.
• Dyes and bleaching agents may only be used if specifically permitted
by the manufacturer of these products. We cannot be held liable for
any damages.
• Please only use water from the mains. Only use rain or industrial
water if it meets the requirements of DIN1986 and DIN1988.

2 Disposal
Dispose of the packaging!
Dispose of the packaging material of your washing machine correctly.
All packaging materials are environmentally friendly and can be disposed of without any danger or burnt in the refuse incinerator.
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<).
The boxes are made from recycled paper and should be returned to the
old paper collection.
Dispose of your old washing machine!
When you eventually stop using your washing machine please bring it
to the nearest recycling centre or to your dealer who will take it back
for a small fee.
2 Environmental tips
• For normally soiled washing you do not need a prewash. In this way
you can save washing powder, water and time (and not pollute the
environment!).
• The washing machine works particularly economically if you exploit
the maximum loads.
• For small quantities of washing use half to two thirds of the recommended washing powder quantity.
• By suitable pretreatment stains and a certain amount of dirt can be
removed. Then you can wash at a low temperature.
• Wash slightly soiled to normally soiled cottons with the energy saving
program.
• Often you do not need a fabric softener. Just try it! If you use a washing machine your washing will become soft and fluffy without softener.
• For medium to high water hardness (from hardness range II, see
"Washing powder and conditioners") you should use a water softener.
The washing powder can then always be measured as for hardness
area I (= soft).

The most important features of your appliance
The most important features of your
appliance
• Setting the program using the program selector, temperature selector
and type of washing buttons.
• Stain program for effectively treating stained washing.
• Energy saving program for slightly soiled to normally soiled linen.
• Maximum spin speed 1200 revolutions per minute, speed for the
final spin is automatically adapted depending on the washing program:
–t (Cottons / Linen) 1200 revolutions per minute
–} (Easy Cares) 1000 revolutions per minute
–Ã (Delicates) 1000 revolutions per minute
–s (Woollens) 1000 revolutions per minute
• Speed for the final spin can be changed to 1000, 700, or 400 revolu-
tions per minute.
• o (Rinse hold) can be added: the washing remains in the final
rinse water, it is not spun.
• Delay timer: program start can be delayed by 2, 4, 8 or 12 hours
(e.g. to times with a more economical power rate).
• Automatic load adaptation with fuzzy logic: sensor controlled
washing process, water quantity dependent on foam and load. This
ensures the best washing and rinsing results with the lowest automatically adapted water consumption.
• 4-chamber compartment for washing powder and fabric softener:
temporally delayed addition of softener, washing powder and stain
removing agent enables environmentally friendly washing and
improves the effectiveness of the detergents.
• ECO valve: ensures that the washing powder is fully exploited by
automatically closing the suds container during the wash cycle.
• Scoop ribs in the washing machine drum: ensure washing is wet fast
and equally.
• Anti-unbalance control system: for stability and smooth running.
• Extra water switch: suds cooling only or suds cooling with extra
rinse can be set.
• All-round water protection.
