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“).
6
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.
7
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

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.

Overview of functions
Programmes (Level 1)
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.

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.

SENSITIVE S
A special additional function with considerably more effective rinse
function (additional rinse cycle) an improved fabric care at the same
time (reduced drum movement). This is ideal when frequent washes are

rinse cycle (RINSE+) is able to be selected in addition (see chapter “Extras”). If SENSITIVE has been set, S is displayed in the symbol row.
STAIN F
For heavily soiled or stained washing. (In-wash stain treatment products (salts or tablets) are drawn in at the optimum time during the programme.) If STAIN has been set, F is displayed in the symbol row.
PRE WASH V
A cold pre wash cycle prior to the main wash cycle, which follows automatically. If PRE WASH has been set, V is displyed in the symbol row.

MEMORY
Programme settings that are frequently used can be saved (e.g. LINEN/
EASY-C., 40°C, 1200 RPM spin, with TIME SAVING).
There are four memory spaces available for this purpose. The saved programme setting will appear as an entry on the first programme page
(e.g. M1:LINEN/EASY-C.) and can be deselected as for a normal wash
programme. (See chapter “Memory: Saving a programme setting”.)

When you select RINSE+ an additional rinse cycle will be carried out,
except for the WOOLLENS H, SILK H and LINGERIE programmes. If
RINSE+ has been selected, P will appear in the symbol row.
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"!
