Operating Instructions  
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 ma-  
chines, and follow the recommendations of the detergent manufac-  
turer.  
Garments which have been in contact with flammable solvents  
should not be washed. Also bear this in mind when washing pre-  
cleaned 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“).

Operating Instructions  
Child Safety  
Packaging materials (e.g. films, styrofoam) can be dangerous for chil-  
dren. 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 inter-  
nal components to be accessible.  
Switch off the appliance and isolate from the mains supply before  
carrying out any cleaning or maintenance work.  
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, carry-  
ing 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.

Operating Instructions  
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:  
for polyethylene, e.g. the outer covering and the bags in  
the interior.  
>PE<  
>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 en-  
vironment 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 recommen-  
dations.

The programme selector is used  
to select the type of wash cycle  
(for example, water level, drum  
movement, number of rinses, spin  
speed) and the water temperature  
according to type of washing.

Switches the washing machine off;  
at all other positions the machine  
is ON.  
To amend programme settings selected by mistake, turn the programme  
selector to OFF. This restores the original settings.  
COTTONS/LINEN, EASY-CARES  
Wash programme from 20 °C to 95 °C, generally used for all Cottons/  
Coloureds (cotton/linen), Easy-Cares (mixed fibres, for example cotton/  
polyester) and synthetics. The programme is suitable for different fab-  
rics and loads. Once a temperature has been set, the machine will auto-  
matically select a COTTONS/LINEN or EASY-CARES programme as  
appropriate. If there are Easy-Cares only, do not exceed the load weight  
of 2.5 kg, to avoid excessive creasing.

Operating Instructions  
STARCHING  
Separate starching, separate conditioning, separate treatment of  
damp clothes (1 rinse, liquid conditioner is washed in from the æ com-  
partment, spin).  
This can also be selected if a separate rinse is necessary. In this case,  
you do not need to add anything to the compartment.  
DRAIN  
To drain the water after a rinse hold (without spinning).  
The effect of Rinse Hold is that the washing is left to soak in the last  
rinse water; it is not spun.  
3
SPIN  
Draining the water after a Rinse Hold and Spin, or separate spinning of  
hand-washed Cottons/Coloureds and Easy-Cares.  
SHORT SPIN  
Draining the water after a Rinse Hold and Short Spin, or separate Short  
Spin of delicate fabrics (delicates, woollens) at low spin speed.  
DELICATES  
Wash programme for Delicates at 30 °C or 40 °C.  
WOOL / P (Handwash)  
Wash programme (cold, up to 40 °C) for machine-washable wool and  
hand-washable wool items carrying the ï care symbol. (Handwash).  
SILK / P (Handwash)  
Wash programme at 30 °C for hand and machine-washable silk.  
Since silk is a very delicate material, we recommend washing only one  
item at a time (if possible), and never washing together with other,  
rougher fabrics. An even more gentle treatment can be selected for ex-  
tremely delicate silk items, using the TIME SAVER button.  
3
FASHION  
A special care programme at 40 °C, for modern textiles such as Viscose,  
Modal, Cupro, Lyocell, providing gentler handling than the DELICATES  
programme, and a stronger cleaning action than the Handwash pro-  
gramme.  
REFRESH  
A special programme of approx. 20 minutes at a maximum temperature  
of 30 °C for quick washing of items such as sports wear, which have  
been worn once and are only slightly soiled.

Operating Instructions  
EASY IRON  
Wash programme at 40 °C for easy-care items which, after this pro-  
gramme, are to be ironed only lightly or not at all.  
ENERGY SAVING  
2
Special energy and water saving programme at about 60 °C, for lightly  
to normally soiled Cottons/Coloureds (cotton/linen), with extended  
wash time.  
Programme Option Buttons  
The programme option buttons are used to adapt  
the programme to suit the degree of soiling of the  
wash. The additional PRE-WASH and STAIN options  
are not needed for normally soiled washing. The  
different functions can be combined together, de-  
pending on the programme.  
PRE-WASH (Pre-wash/Soaking)  
Cold pre-wash before the main wash cycle, which  
follows automatically. The DELAY TIMER button  
changes Pre-wash to warm soaking.  
SENSITIVE  
Special extra programme function that gives an extra rinse along with  
better fabric care (less drum movement). This is ideal when frequent  
washes are necessary, for example in cases of sensitive skin. RINSE+ can  
still be selected as well.  
STAIN  
For heavily soiled or stained washing. (In-wash stain treatment prod-  
ucts (powder or tablets) are washed in at the optimum time as the pro-  
gramme progresses.)  
With the WOOL/P (Handwash) setting, the additional programme op-  
tion buttons cannot be used.

Consumption Values and Programme Times  
The following table gives the values for selected programmes under  
standard conditions. Consumption values depend on the selected pro-  
gramme settings (optional functions), washing type and quantity, water  
pressure, such as water inlet temperature, water hardness, room tem-  
perature or detergent used, etc. The tables do, however, give a helpful  
guide for normal household use.

Operating Instructions  
What does "UPDATE" mean?  
The control system of your washing machine is fully electronic. The  
software which determines this control system can be reprogrammed.  
If a further improvement to washing technology is introduced by AEG,  
then your machine can be updated. The cost of the UPDATE will be ad-  
vised at the time of the request.  
For further information regarding this, please contact the AEG Cus-  
tomer Care Department.  
Anti-flood Aqua Control + Aqua Alarm  
The inlet hose has a mechanical built in safety device. In the event of  
the filling hose failing, the safety device will automatically shut off the  
water supply.  
In the event of a leak within the machine the float switch, which is  
mounted in the base of the appliance, will operate the drain pump and  
an audible signal will be heard  
The system will operate as long as the appliance is connected to the  
mains electricity supply, even if the programme selector is in the off  
position.

Operating Instructions  
Before the first wash  
0
Run a washing programme without laundry (selecting COTTONS/LINEN,  
EASY-CARES 95, with half the normal amount of detergent).  
This removes any residues from the drum which may have been left  
during manufacturing.  
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"!

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 ç  
Cotton and linen items with this care symbol are not sensitive to ma-  
chine washing or high temperatures. The COTTONS/LINEN, EASY-CARES  
programme is suitable for this type of washing.  
Coloureds è ë  
Cotton and linen items with this care symbol are not sensitive to ma-  
chine washing. The COTTONS/LINEN, EASY-CARES programme is suita-  
ble for this type of washing.  
Easy-Care washing ê í  
Materials such as fine cotton, cotton-blend fabrics and synthetics with  
these care symbols require a gentler machine wash. The COTTONS/  
LINEN, EASY-CARES and EASY-IRON programmes are suitable for these  
types of washing.  
Delicates ì  
Materials such as layered fibres, microfibres, synthetics and net curtains  
with this care symbol require careful handling. The DELICATES pro-  
gramme is suitable for this types of washing.  
Viscose í ì  
Modern fabrics such as Viscose, Cupro, Lyocell, Modal, etc. need partic-  
ularly careful handling. The FASHION programme is suitable for this  
type of washing.  
Wool, silk and especially sensitive washing 9 ì ï  
Fabrics like wool, wool blends and silk with these care symbols are par-  
ticularly sensitive to machine washing. The WOOL/P (Handwash) and  
SILK/P (Handwash) programmes are suitable for these types of fabrics.

Detergents and Conditioners  
Which detergent and conditioner?  
Use only detergents and conditioners which are suitable for use in au-  
tomatic washing machines. Always follow the manufacturer's instruc-  
tions.  
How much detergent and conditioner?  
The required quantity depends upon:  
the extent of soiling of the washing  
the hardness class of the mains water  
the amount of washing  
Should the detergent manufacturer not specify the dosage quantity for  
2
less than full loads, reduce the detergent accordingly: For a half load  
reduce the quantity by 1/3. For a small load or an EASY IRON pro-  
gramme reduce the quantity by 1/2.  
Observe the instructions for use and dosing provided by the detergent  
and conditioner manufacturer.  
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.

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.

Installation-Site preparation  
The installation surface must be clean, dry and level. Do not install on  
a deep pile carpet.  
Minor unevenness of the floor surface should never be levelled out by  
laying pieces of wood, card or similar materials, but should always be  
compensated for by adjusting the screw feet.  
If the appliance is installed next to a heat source (e.g. cooking appli-  
ance), a heat insulating pad (87 x 57 cm) must be placed between the  
appliance and the heat source.  
Do not install the appliance in locations where the temperature may  
fall below freezing.  
Please ensure that when the appliance is installed it is easily accessi-  
ble for the engineer in the event of a breakdown.  
Installation on a Suspended Floor  
Suspended wooden floors are particularly susceptible to vibration. To  
help prevent vibration we recommend you place a waterproof wood  
panel, at least 15 mm thick under the appliance, secured to at least  
2 floor beams with screws. If possible install the appliance in one of the  
corners of the room, where the floor is more stable.

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
