Instructions for use

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

1 Safety

The safety of AEG electrical appliances conforms to the recognised

technical regulations and the legislation covering the safety of appli-

ances. However, as manufacturers, we still regard it as our responsibility

to inform you of the following safety information.

Before Putting into Operation for the First Time

•Refer to the ”Installation and Connection Instructions”later in this

user information.

•When the unit is delivered in winter months with minus tempera-

tures: Store the washing machine for 24 hours at room temperature

before putting it into operation.

Correct Use

•The washing machine is only designed for normal domestic washing.

If the unit is used for purposes other than that for which it is

designed, the manufacturer can accept no liability for any resulting

damages.

•For safety reasons, conversions or modifications to the washing

machine are not permissible.

•Use only detergents which are suitable for washing machines. Follow

the washing detergent manufacturer's instructions.

•The washing must not contain any flammable solvents. Also remem-

ber this when washing pre-cleaned washing.

•Do not use the washing machine for chemical cleaning.

•Dyes/dye removers may only be used in washing machines if the

manufacturer expressly allows these products. We cannot be held lia-

ble for any resulting damage.

•Use only water from the water mains. Use rainwater or service water

only if it meets the requirements outlined in DIN1986 and DIN1988.

•Frost damage is not covered by the warranty! If the washing machine

is in a room which is at risk from frost, an emergency emptying oper-

ation must be carried out when there is a frost risk (see the section

”Carry Out Emergency Emptying”).

Instructions for use

Child Safety

•Packaging components (e.g. films, polystyrene) can be hazardous to

children. Risk of suffocation! Keep packaging away from children.

•Children often cannot recognise the hazards associated with handling

electrical appliances. Therefore, ensure the necessary supervision dur-

ing operation and do not allow children to play with the washing

machine –there is a risk that children can get trapped inside.

•Ensure that children or small animals cannot climb into the washing

machine's drum.

•When disposing of the washing machine: Pull out the mains plug,

destroy the door lock, cut off the electrical supply lead and throw

away the plug and the left-over cable. This means that children at

play cannot shut themselves inside and in so doing be in danger.

General Safety

•Repairs to the washing machine may only be carried out by skilled

persons. Incorrect repairs can cause significant hazards. If repairs are

necessary, consult our Customer Service or your specialist dealer.

•Never put the washing machine into operation if the mains cable is

damaged or if the control panel, work top or base area are damaged

in such a way that the inside of the unit is open and accessible.

•Switch off the washing machine before carrying out cleaning, care

and maintenance work. Also pull the mains plug out of the socket or,

–if it is permanently connected, –switch off the LS switch in the

fuse box or completely unscrew the screw-in fuse.

•Never pull the cable to remove the plug from the socket. Always pull

the plug itself.

•Multiple connectors, couplings and extension cables must not be

used. There is a fire risk with overheating!

•Do not spray down the washing machine with a water jet. Electric

shock risk!

•The glass in the filling door becomes hot in the case of washing pro-

grams with high temperatures. Do not touch!

•Allow the washing solution to cool down before emergency emptying

of the unit, before cleaning or before emergency opening of the fill-

ing door.

•Small animals can chew the power cables and water hoses. Risk of

electric shock and danger of water damage! Keep small animals away

from the washing machine.

Instructions for use

2 Disposal

Dispose the packing material!

Dispose of your washing machine's packaging correctly. All packaging

materials are environmentally compatible and can be disposed of with-

out risk or incinerated at a refuse combustion plant.

The plastics can also be reused:

•The outer sleeve and the bags are made of polyethylene (code >PE<).

•The cushioned parts are made of foamed, CFC-free polystyrene

(code >PS<).

The card parts were made from recylced paper and should also be

returned in the waste paper collection.

Dispose the old appliance!

When you finally put your appliance out of operation,

please bring it to your nearest recycling centre or to your dealer.

2 Environment Tips

•The pre-wash cycle is not required for averagely dirty washing. This

saves washing powder/liquid, water and time (and does not harm the

environment).

•The washing machine is especially economical when you fully utilise

the stated filling quantities.

•For small amounts of washing, use only half to two thirds the recom-

mended amount of washing powder/liquid.

•Suitable pretreatment enables stains and small amounts of dirt to be

removed. You can then wash at a lower temperature.

•Use the energy-saving program to wash garments which are lightly to

moderately dirty.

•There is often no need for conditioner. Try it once! If you use a dryer,

your washing will become soft and velvety even without conditioner.

•In the case of medium to high water hardness, (hardness range II or

higher, see ”Washing and Care Agents”), you should use water sof-

tener.

The washing powder/liquid can then always be metered for hardness

range I (= soft).
