Operating Instructions

1 Safety

The safety features of AEG electrical appliances comply with accepted technical standards and the German Appliance Safety Law. However, we also consider it our obligation as a manufacturer to inform you about the following safety information.

Prior to initial start-up

• Observe the "Installation and Connection Instructions" in this in- struction book.

• If the appliance is delivered in the winter months and temperatures are below freezing: Store the washing machine at room temperature for a few hours before putting it into operation.

Intended Use

• The washing machine is only intended for washing normal domestic washing. If the appliance is used for any other purpose or incorrectly operated, the manufacturer accepts no liability for any damages which may result.

• It is dangerous to alter the specifications or attempt to modify this product in any way.

• Only use detergents which are suitable for automatic washing machines, and follow the recommendations of the detergent manufacturer.

• Garments which have been in contact with flammable solvents should not be washed. Also bear this in mind when washing precleaned washing.

• Do not use the 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.

• This appliance must be connected to the cold water supply only.

• Damage due to frost is not covered by the guarantee. If the washing

machine is located in a room in which below freezing temperatures may occur, emergency emptying must be carried out (see "carrying out an emergency emptying“).

Page 7

Child Safety

• Packaging materials (e.g. films, styrofoam) can be dangerous for children. There is a risk of suffocation! Keep all packaging well away from children.

• This appliance is designed to be operated by adults. Do not allow children to tamper with the controls or play with the appliance.

• Pets and children have been known to climb into washing machines. Please check the drum before use.

• When disposing of the appliance, cut off the mains cable, and destroy the plug. Disable the door lock to prevent young children being trapped inside.

General Safety

• Repairs to the washing machine must only be carried out by qualified personnel. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or serious malfunctioning. Contact your local AEG Service Force Centre.

• Never operate the washing machine if the mains cable is damaged or the control panel, work top or base area are damaged allowing internal components to be accessible.

• Switch off the appliance and isolate from the mains supply before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance work.

• If operation is stopped, disconnect the appliance from the mains supply and shut off the tap.

• Do not use the mains cable to pull the plug out of the socket.

• Adapters and extension cables must not be used. There is a danger of overheating!

• Do not clean the washing machine with a water jet. There is a danger of electrical shock!

• During high temperature wash programmes, the glass of the door may become hot. Do not touch!

• Allow the water to cool down before cleaning the drain pump, carrying out emergency emptying or opening the door in an emergency.

• Small animals/pets can chew on power cables and water hoses. This can cause the danger of an electrical shock to the animal and water damage to the appliance and property. Keep small animals away from the appliance.

Page 8

2 Disposal

Packaging

Dispose of the packaging material correctly. All packaging materials used are environmentally friendly and can be disposed of without any danger to the environment.

• Plastic parts can be recycled and are identified as follows:

>PE< for polyethylene, e.g. the outer covering and the bags in

the interior. >PS< for polystyrene, e.g. padding (always CFC-free) >POM< for polyoxymethylene, e.g. plastic clips

• Cardboard packaging is manufactured from recycled paper and

should be deposited in the waste paper collection for recycling.

When disposing of the washing machine!

Cut off the mains cable and destroy the plug. Disable the door catch to prevent young children becoming trapped inside. Use an authorised disposal site.

2 Environmental tips

• It is not usually necessary to Pre-wash or Soak normally soiled wash-

ing. This will save you detergent, water and time (and protect the environment as well).

• It is more economical to wash full loads.

• When washing small loads, use half to two thirds the recommended

quantity of detergent.

• Pre-treat stains, if necessary, and then wash at a lower temperature.

• It can be possible to wash without fabric softeners, if clothes are

dried in a tumble dryer, as this can give soft and fluffy results.

• In hard water areas, the use of a water softening agent can reduce

the amount of detergent necessary. See manufacturer’s recommendations.

Switching on the appliance for the first time – setting the language

When switching on the appliance for the first time you must set the language in which you want the indicators in the display to appear.

1. Turn the appliance on by pressing the control knob so that it is no longer flush in the control panel.

The display in the middle of the control panel will illuminate, and the appliance is switched on. The selection of possible languages will appear in the right of the display. Important: If the display is not showing any languages, the appliance has already been switched on once. In such case, go to the chapter “Change languages” if you would like to change the language setting.

2. Turn the knob until the desired language is highlighted by the frame.

3. Press the SELECT button. A tick will appear next to the

highlighted language. All indicators in the display will appear in this language from now on.

4. Press the control knob to switch off the appliance.

When the appliance is switched on again all indicators in the display will appear in this language.

Main control features

This chapter describes how to set a large number of functions and combine them with each other using only a few control elements (1 control knob and 4 buttons). This simple control method is made easy thanks to the interactive display. Interactive means that the washing machine display changes to reflect each step you have entered. This ensures that only those settings that make sense are made. You are able to see the current settings at any time in the information panel and in the symbol row. We recommend that you take particular note of this chapter in order to quickly familiarise yourself with the controls.

Switching the appliance on and off

Press the control knob to switch the appliance on and off. When the appliance is switched on the control knob will pop up from its flush position. To turn off the appliance, press the control knob back to its flush position.

3 To cancel any programme settings that were made previously, please

wait approx. 3 seconds after switching off the appliance before you switch it on again.

Cancelling settings

If you would like to cancel settings that were accidentally made previously, switch off the appliance by pressing the control knob and after approx. 3 seconds switch it back on. You are now able to make new settings.

Page 13

Navigation display

The functions are detailed over levels and pages within the washing machine display.

Level 3 (Current level) Level 2 Level 1

Current page

One level can include a number of pages.

Total number pages

You can see from the navigation display which level and page you are currently on (here: level 3, page 1 of

Turning the knob anti-clockwise moves the area highlighted down. If the area highlighted is on the last entry of a page (here: WOOLLENS) and you then turn the knob again in an anti-clockwise direction, the display will turn to the next page (ö).

Turning the knob clockwise moves the area highlighted up. If the area highlighted is on the first entry of a page (here: SILK) and you continue to turn the knob in a clockwise direction, the display will turn to the previous page (î).

Wash programmes

LINEN/EASY-CARE

Wash programme (20 °C to 60 °C) for cottons/ coloureds (cotton/linen), easy-care (mixed fabrics, e.g. cotton/polyester) and synthetics. The appliance adjusts the programme according to the different fabric types and load sizes. If the wash load is predominantly cotton/linen, the programme is set for cottons/coloureds. If it consists mainly of synthetics, the easy-care programme is selected. If the load to be washed contains easy-care only, do not load more than 3 kg in order to avoid excessive creasing of the laundry.

DELICATES

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

WOOLLENS H (handwash)

Wash programme (COLD to 40 °C) for machine-washable wool and handwashable wool fabrics with the H (handwash) care label.

SILK H (handwash)

Wash programme which washes at 30 °C for handwashable and machine-washable silk.

3 As silk is a very delicate fabric we recommend

that, if possible, only one item of clothing be washed at a time and that silk items are never washed together with other rough-textured fabrics. For extremely delicate silk items the TIME SAVING option can be used to ensure that the item is treated even more gently.

LINGERIE

Gentle wash programme which washes at 40 °C for fine and delicate fabrics. Important: Place padded lingerie in a washing net or bag.

40°-60° MIX

Programme for coloureds when various wash temperatures are indicated for the items to be washed. Various items which according to the care labels are usually washed separately at 40 °C or 60 °C can be washed together in the 40°-60° MIX programme. In this way the drum capacity is better used and energy is saved as a result. Due to the extended wash time a wash result the same as that as for a normal 60°C programme is achieved.

EASY IRON

Wash programme which washes at 40 °C for easy-care fabrics which after being washed using this programme need to be ironed only lightly or not at all.

REFRESH

An approx. 20-minute-long wash programme which washes at 30 °C for quick washing of items such as lightly soiled sportswear that has been worn only once.

FASHION

An especially gentle wash programme which washes at 40 °C for modern fabrics such as viscose, modal, cupro, lyocell.

WATER COOLING

Before being drained at the end of the main wash cycle the wash water is cooled by an inflow of cold water in order to prevent the plastic drain pipes from sustaining thermal damage. This basic setting only takes effect with the COTTONS, LINEN/EASY-C. and ENERGY SAVING programmes.

GENTLE SPIN

Adjustable spin cycle, integrated with the final spin cycle. The washing does not cling to the side of the drum as much and can be removed more easily.

LANGUAGE

To set the language in which the indicators are to appear in the display. (See chapter “Changing the language”.)

TIMER

To set the current time. This is important as it enables the end of the wash programme to be shown in the display and the DELAY START additional function to be used. (See the chapter “Before washing for the first time: Setting the timer”.)

VOLUME

You will hear an acoustic signal when you press the buttons. The volume of this signal can be regulated and/or the signal can be switched off. The volume of the alarm for error messages cannot be altered.

Preparing for a wash cycle

Sorting and preparing the washing

• Sort the washing according to care symbols (see Section "Types of

washing and care symbols").

• Empty out the pockets.

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

• To avoid damage and tangling: close zips, button pillow-cases and

duvet covers, tie together loose tapes and strings (for example on aprons).

• Turn items with double-layered fabrics inside out (sleeping bags, ano-

raks, etc.).

• Knitted coloured fabrics such as woollens and other materials with

decorations or jewellry should also be turned inside out.

• Wash small, delicate items (such as baby's socks, tights, bras, etc.) in a

washing net, cushion cover with a zip or in large socks.

• Special care must be taken with net curtains. Remove metal or plastic

rollers liable to snag or tie the curtains up in a net or bag. We cannot accept liability for any damage.

• Coloured and white washing should not be washed together in the

same cycle. Otherwise, whites can discolour or turn grey.

• New coloured garments often have excess dye. It is better to wash

these items separately for the first time.

• Mix large items with smaller ones. This gives more effective washing

and distributes items better during the spin cycle.

• Shake out the washing before loading it into the washing machine.

• Separate items from one another before placing in the drum.

• Pay attention to care advice such as "Wash separately" or "Wash sep-

arately several times"!

Page 23

Types of washing and care symbols

Care symbols help you to choose the correct wash programme. Washing should be sorted by type and according to care symbols. The temperatures indicated on the care symbols are the maximum wash temperatures.

Cottons O

Cotton and linen items with this care symbol are not sensitive to machine washing or high temperatures. The COTTONS programme is suitable for such items.

Coloureds MJ

Cotton and linen items with this care symbol are not sensitive to machine washing. The LINEN/EASY-C. programme is suitable for such items.

Easy-care items NK

Materials such as fine cotton, cotton-blend fabrics and synthetics with these care symbols require a gentler machine wash. The LINEN/EASY-C. and EASY IRON programmes are provided for use with such items.

Delicates L

Materials such as layered fibres, micro-fibres, synthetics and curtains with this care symbol require careful handling. The DELICATES programme is suitable for such items.

Viscose KL

Modern materials such as viscose, cupro, lyocell, modal etc. require especially careful handling. The FASHION programme is suitable for such items.

Lingerie KL

The LINGERIE programme is suitable for fine and delicate items made of polyester, polyamide and mixed fabrics with these care symbols.

Wool, silk and especially delicate items WLH

Fabrics such as wool, wool blends and silk with these care symbols are particularly sensitive to machine washing. The WOOLLENS H and SILK H programmes are suitable for such items.

Important: Items with care symbols G (Do not wash!) must not be washed in washing machines.

Page 24

Detergent and Conditioners

Which detergent and conditioners?

Only use detergents and conditioners that are suitable for use in washing machines. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Quantities of detergent and conditioners?

The quantity to be used will depend on:

• degree of soiling of the washing

• degree of hardness of the water supply

• load

2 If the manufacturer does not indicate the amounts to use for smaller

loads, for half-loads use a third less than the amount recommended for a full load, and for smaller loads and EASY IRON use half the amount recommended for a full load. Please follow the detergent and conditioner manufacturers’ instructions for use and dosing recommendations.

Water softening

For medium to high water hardness (hardness class II upwards) a water softening agent can be used. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions. Then always add the appropriate amount of detergent (underdosing) for hardness class I (soft). Your local Water Authority can advise you on the hardness of the water in your area.

Water hardness details

Hardness class

I - soft 0 - 7 to 125

II - medium hard 7 - 14 125 - 250

III - hard 14 - 21 250 - 375

IV - very hard greater than 21 greater than 375

If the washing results are not satisfactory

If the washing turns greyish and limescale deposits are present in the drum

• Insufficient detergent has been added.

• Incorrect detergent was used.

• Stains were not pre-treated.

• Programme or temperature was not set correctly.

• If using modular detergents, the individual components were not

used in the correct ratio.

If there are still grey stains on the washing

• Soiled garments with ointments, grease or oils were washed with in-

sufficient detergent.

• The temperature selected for the wash was too low.

• A frequent cause is that fabric softener - particularly a concentrated

one - has come into contact with the washing. Wash out these types of stains as soon as possible and use the fabric softener carefully.

If after the last rinse foam is still visible

• Modern detergents can still cause foam in the final rinse cycle. How-

ever, the washing is still sufficiently rinsed.

If there are white residues on the washing

• These are insoluble contents of modern detergents. They are not the

result of an insufficient rinse. Shake out the washing or brush it off. Turn the washing inside out before washing it. Review your choice of detergent and if necessary use liquid detergent.

Page 48

Carrying out an emergency emptying

• If the washing machine no longer pumps out the water, emergency

emptying must be carried out.

• If the washing machine is located in a room in which below freezing

temperatures might occur, emergency emptying must be carried out. Furthermore: unscrew the inlet hose from the water tap and drain off the water. Empty the drainage hose.

1 Warning! Switch off the washing machine and pull out the mains plug

prior to performing emergency emptying. Warning! The water, which flows out of the emergency emptying hose

can be hot. First allow the water to cool down before you carry out the emergency emptying.

Water Drainage

The appliance drain hose should hook into a standpipe, the hook in the drain hose is formed using the plastic “U-Piece“ supplied. The standpipe should have an internal diameter of approximately 38 mm (see diagram) thus ensuring there is an air break between the drain hose and standpipe.

Important! It is essential to lay the drainage hose without kinks. When discharging into a stand-

pipe ensure that the top of the curve in the hose end is no more than 90 cm (35.4’’) and no less than 60 cm (23.6’’) above floor level.

The upright standpipe should have a minimum, length of 30 cm (12’’) from the bottom of the elbow to the top of the pipe (see diagram). Make sure that it is designed in such a way that the end of the drain hose cannot be covered with water. Longer drain hoses are available in lengths of 2.7 and 4 metres from your AEG Service Force Centre. If you intend the drain hose from the washing machine to empty into a sink, make sure that the sink is empty and the plug hose is not blocked. Use the plastic “UPiece“ supplied. Important! The end of the drainage hose must not be submerged in the pumped-out water. Otherwise, the water could be sucked back into the appliance.
