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 de-  
signed, the manufacturer can accept no liability for any resulting  
damages.  
• For safety reasons, conversions or modifications to the washing ma-  
chine 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”).  
6
 
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 ma-  
chine – 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, de-  
stroy 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.  
• If operation is stopped, disconnect the appliance from the mains sup-  
ply and shut off the tap.  
• 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.  
7
 
Instructions for use  
• 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.  
2 Disposal  
Dispose the packing material!  
Dispose of your washing machine's packaging correctly. All the packag-  
ing materials used are harmless to the environment and can be recy-  
cled.  
• Plastic parts are marked with standard international abbreviations:  
>PE<  
>PS<  
for polyethylene, e.g. sheet wrapping material  
for polystyrene, e.g. padding material (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.  
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 Environmental Tips  
• You do not need to use a pre wash cycle or soak for washing with av-  
erage soiling. This saves detergent, water and time (and protects the  
environment).  
• When loaded to the capacities indicated the washing machine is es-  
pecially efficient.  
• For small loads, use only one half to two thirds of the recommended  
quantity of detergent.  
• By pre-treating stains and marks you will be able to wash at a lower  
temperature.  
• It is often possible to wash without using softener. Give it a try! If  
you use a drier, your washing will be soft and fluffy even without a  
softener.  
• For medium to high water hardness (from hardness range II, see “De-  
tergents and Conditioners”) you should use water softener. The  
detergent can then always be dosed as for hardness range I (= soft).

Instructions for use  
COTTONS/LINEN, EASY-CARE  
(WITTE/BONTE WAS, BLANC/COULEURS,  
KREUKHERSTELLEND, DEFROISSABLE)  
Wash programme from 20 °C to95 °C can be used universally for cot-  
ton/linen, easy-care (e.g. cotton/polyester) and synthetics. The washing  
programme adapts itself to the various types of types of weaves and  
amount of filling. For mostly cotton/linen, the programme for cotton/  
linen will be carriedout; for mostly synthetics, a programme for easy-  
care washing. For purely easy-care loading, the amount of filling should  
not exceed 2.5 kg in order to prevent increased creasing build-up.  
RINSING (SPOELEN, RINCAGE)  
Separate rinse, separate Conditioning, separate impregnation of wet  
washing (1 rinse cycle, fluid conditioner from the compartment æ is  
rinsed in, spin).  
Do not pour conditioner into the compartment if a separate spin cycle  
is to be carried out.  
PUMP OUT (POMPEN, VIDANGE)  
Pumping out the water after a rinse stop (without spinning).  
Rinse stop means: the washing remains in the last rinse water, it is not  
spun.  
3
SPIN (CENTRIFUG., ESSORAGE)

11  
 
Instructions for use  
SILK (ZIJDE, SOIE)/ P (handwash)  
Wash programme at 30 °C for hand- and machine-washable silk.  
As silk is a very delicate textile, we recommend washing only one article  
of clothing, if possible, and on no account washing it together with  
other textiles. For extremely delicate silk textiles, it is possible to obtain  
an even more gentle handling by using the TIME SAVE button.  
3
FASHION

Viskose, Modal, Cupro, Lyocell, with more gentle handling than with the  
DELICATE (FIJNE WAS, LINGE DELICAT) programme and more intensive  
cleaning effect than with the hand wash programme.  
REFRESH (OPFRISSEN, RAFRAICHIR)  
Ca. 20-minute special programme at 30 °C for short wash cycle wash-  
ing of textiles, such as sports clothing that has only been worn once  
and is only lightly soiled.

normally soiled cotton/linen with increased washing time.  
2
Additional programme buttons  
The purpose of the additional programme buttons is  
to adapt the washing programme to the degree of  
soiling of the washing. For normally soiled  
washing, additional programs such as PREWASH  
(VOORWAS, PRELAV.) and STAINS (VLEKKEN,  
TACHES) are not necessary.  
Depending on the programme, various functions  
can be combined.  
PRE WASH (VOORWAS, PRELAV.)  
(Pre wash/Soaking)  
Cold pre wash before the subsequent automatic main wash cycle.  
With button DELAY TIMER (STARTTIJDKEUZE, DEPART DIFFERE) will soak  
the pre wash for heating.  
12  
 
Instructions for use  
DELICATE (BEHOEDZAAM, SENSITIVE)  
Special additional programme with significantly higher rinse effect  
(special spin cycle) with simultaneously improved weave care (reduced  
drum movement). Ideal, if washing is to be carried out often, e.g. for  
over-sensitive skin. RINSE+ (SPOELEN+, RINCAGE+) can additionally be  
selected.  
STAINS (VLEKKEN, TACHES)  
For handling strongly soiled or stained washing. (Stainssalt or tabs are  
rinsed in a time optimized manner during the programme cycle).  
When setting WOOL (WOL, LAINE) /P (handwash programme) the ad-  
ditional programmes cannot be selected with the buttons.

Instructions for use  
What does “UPDATE” mean?  
The wash programmes in your washing machine are controlled by soft-  
ware.  
New types of fabric or new detergents may require new wash pro-  
grammes in the future. In most cases, the software can be adapted to  
this.  
For further information on a possible “update” please contact customer  
service.  
Water Protection Aqua Control +  
Aqua Alarm  
In the event of damage to the supply hose, the system blocks the fur-  
ther supply of water to the unit directly st the water tap.  
If water escapes elsewhere, the drainage pump automatically pumps  
off – even if the unit is switched off. The washing machine merely has  
to be connected to the electricity mains. When the water protection  
system responds, a warning signal sounds at the same time.

Carry out a wash cycle without washing; Programme COTTON/LINEN  
(WITTE/BONTE WAS, BLANC/COULEURS) 95, with half the washing pow-  
der/liquidquantity. In this way, manufacturing remains in the drum and  
water container will be removed.  
Preparing a Wash Load  
Sorting and preparing a wash load  
• Sort the washing according to care symbol (see “Washing Types and  
Care Symbols”).  
• Empty all pockets.  
• Remove metal objects (paper clips, safety pins etc.).  
• In order to prevent the washing tangling and being damaged: close  
zippers, button up duvet covers and pillow cases, and tie up loose  
straps such as from aprons.  
• Turn articles with double layered fabric inside out (sleeping bags,  
anoraks etc.).  
• In the case of knitted coloured fabrics and also wool and fabrics with  
jewellery attached: turn inside out.  
• Place small and delicate articles (baby booties, stockings, bras etc.)  
into a washing net, a pillow case with zipper, or in large socks before  
washing.  
• Handle curtains with particular care. Metal fittings or burred, plastic  
fittings must be removed or tied into a net or bag. We cannot accept  
liability for damage.  
• Do not wash coloured and white washing together. This could trans-  
fer colour to white washing or turn it grey.  
• New coloured items often have an excess of colour. It is better to  
wash such items separately the first time.  
• Mix small and large items of washing. This improves the wash effi-  
ciency and the washing is more evenly distributed during the spin cy-  
cle.  
• Shake out washing before placing into the washing machine.  
• Do not place folded washing into the drum.  
• Observe such washing instructions as “wash separately” and “wash  
separately several times”!

chanical loading. For this type of washing the programme  
COTTON/LINEN EASY-CARE (WITTE/BONTE WAS, BLANC/COULEURS,  
KREUKHERSTELLEND, DEFROISSABLE) is suitable.  
Easy-care washing ê í  
Textiles such as reinforced cotton, cotton-wool mixtures and synthetics  
with this care symbol demand a mechanically milder handling. For  
these type of washing the programmes COTTON/LINEN, EASY CARE  
(WITTE/BONTE WAS, BLANC/COULEURS, KREUKHERSTELLEND, DEFROIS-  
SABLE) and LIGHT IRON (STRIJKVRIJ, SANS REPASSAGE) are avaIlable.  
Delicatesì  
Textiles such as layered fibres, micro-fibres, synthetics and Curtains with  
this care symbol need a caring handling. For these types of washing the  
programme DELICATE (FIJNE WAS, LINGE DELICAT) is suitable.  
Viskose í ì  
Modern textiles such as viskose, cupro, lyocell, modal, among others re-  
quire a particularly caring handling. For these types of washing the  
programme FASHION is suitable.  
Wool, Silk and specially delicate wash 9 ì ï

Instructions for use  
Washing Detergents and Care Agents  
Which washing detergent and care agent?  
Use only washing detergents and care agents which are suitable for use  
in washing machines. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions.  
How much washing detergent and care agent?  
The amount to be used depends on:  
• the dirtiness of the washing  
• the hardness category of the mains water supply  
• the filling quantity  
If the detergent manufacturer gives no details of the dosing quantities  
for minimum loads, add one third less for half loads and, in the case of  
very small loads and for EASY IRON (STRIJKVRIJ, SANS REPASSAGE),  
only half the amount of detergent recommended for a full load.  
2
Refer to the detergent/care agent manufacturer's instructions on use  
and dosage.  
Water Softener  
For medium to high water hardness (hardness category II or higher) you  
should use water softener. Pay attention to the manufacturer's instruc-  
tions. Always then meter detergent for hardness category I (= soft). The  
responsible water works can provide information on the local water  
hardness.  
Since the water softener is added before the main washing detergent,  
(water pre-softening), eighty percent of the softener quantity stated on  
the package is sufficient.

Instructions for use  
If the washing result is not satisfactory  
If the washing is grey and limescale forms in the drum  
• Not enough washing detergent added.  
• The right washing detergent was not used.  
• Special types of stain were not pretreated.  
• Program or temperature incorrectly set.  
• If binary wahing detergents were used, the individual components  
were not added in the correct ratio.  
If there are still grey stains on the washing  
• Washing contaminated with creams, grease or oils was washing with  
too little detergent.  
• Washing at too low temperature.  
• A frequent cause is that conditioner – particularly concentrated  
form, ended up on the washing. Wash out such stains as quickly as  
possible and carefully use the right conditioner.  
If foam is still visible after the final rinse  
• Modern washing detergents can still produce foam, even in the final  
rinse. The washing is still sufficiently rinsed.  
If there are white residues on the washing  
• These are the insoluble components of modern detergents.  
They are not the result of an insufficient rinsing effect.  
Shake or brush off the washing. Perhaps in future you should turn  
the washing before washing it. Check the choice of detergent and use  
a liquid detergent if necessary.

Setting up and connection instructions  
Prepare the Installation Location  
• The installation surface must be clean, dry and free of floor wax resi-  
due and other lubricating coatings so that the unit does not slide  
away. Do not use any lubricants as sliding aids.  
• It is not recommended to set up the washing machine on deep-pile  
carpets or on floor coverings with soft foam underlays, as this would  
mean that the stability of the unit would not be guaranteed.  
• Use ordinary rubber mats as underlays in locations with small-format  
tiles.  
• Never use wood, card or similar underlays to compensate for minor  
floor unevenness. Always use the adjustable screw-type feet of the  
machine.  
• If, for reasons of space, it is not possible to avoid setting up the unit  
next to a gas cooker or coal stove: Insert a thermally-insulating panel  
between the washing machine and the cooker (85 x 57cm). This panel  
must have an aluminium foil on the side against the cooker.  
• The washing machine must not be set up in a room where there  
is a danger of frost. Frost damage!  
• The intake and drainage hoses must not be bent or pinched.  
Setting Up on a Concrete Pedestal  
When setting up the washing machine on  
a concrete pedestal, it is essential for  
safety reasons to fit stand plates in which  
the washing machine is then adjusted.  
The stand plates are available from the  
Customer Service under spare part  
number 645 425 058.  
Setting Up on a Vibrating floor  
In the case of vibrating floors, especially wooden beam floors with flex-  
ible boards, securely screw a water-resistant wooden panel at least  
15mm thick onto at least 2 of the floor beams. If possible, set up the  
unit in a corner of the room where the wooden floor is best firmly in-  
stalled and is therefore least likely to be susceptible to vibrations.  
52  
 
Setting up and connection instructions  
Compensate for Floor Unevenness  
Automatic Adjustment Foot: Your washing machine's rear left foot is  
of a spring leg design. This guarantees good stability of the unit, even  
at high spinning speeds.  
3
If the washing machine still does not stand firmly enough during spin-  
ning, proceed as follows:  
01. Adjust the three adjustment feet  
to the setpoint 10mm. To do this,  
use the supplied special button to  
remove the transport safeguard.  
If the automatic adjustment foot  
still does not reach the floor:  
2. Manually extend the automatic  
adjustment foot (rear left) by the  
necessary amount.  
3. If necessary, check the setting  
with a spirit level.  
Attention! Never use wood, card  
or similar underlays to compen-  
sate for minor floor unevenness. Always use the adjustable screw-type  
feet of the machine.

DECLARATION OF GUARANTEE TERMS.  
Our appliances are produced with the greatest of care. However, a defect may still oc-  
cur. Our consumer services department will repair this upon request, either during or  
after the guarantee period. The service life of the appliance will not, however, be re-  
duced as a result.  
This declaration of guarantee terms is based on European Union Directive 99/44/EC and  
the provisions of the Civil Code. The statutory rights that the consumer has under this  
legislation are not affected by this declaration of guarantee terms.  
This declaration does not affect the vendor's statutory warranty to the end user. The  
appliance is guaranteed within the context of and in adherence with the following  
terms:  
1. In accordance with provisions laid down in paragraphs 2 to 15, we will remedy free of  
charge any defect that occurs within 24 months from the date the appliance is deliv-  
ered to the first end user.  
These guarantee terms do not apply in the event of use for professional or equivalent  
purposes.  
2. Performing the guarantee means that the appliance is returned to the condition it was  
in before the defect occurred. Defective parts are replaced or repaired. Parts replaced  
free of charge become our property.  
3. So as to avoid more severe damage, the defect must be brought to our attention imme-  
diately.  
4. Applying the guarantee is subject to the consumer providing proof of purchase show-  
ing the purchase and/or delivery date.  
5. The guarantee will not apply if damage caused to delicate parts, such as glass (vitreous  
ceramic), synthetic materials and rubber, is the result of inappropriate use.  
6. The guarantee cannot be called on for minor faults that do not affect the value or the  
overall reliability of the appliance.  
7. The statutory warranty does not apply when defects are caused by:  
• a chemical or electrochemical reaction caused by water,  
• abnormal environmental conditions in general,  
• unsuitable operating conditions,  
• contact with harsh substances.  
8. The guarantee does not apply to defects due to transport which have occurred outside  
of our responsibility. Nor will the guarantee cover those caused by inadequate installa-  
tion or assembly, lack of maintenance or failure to respect the assembly instructions or  
directions for use.  
9. Defects that result from repairs or measures carried out by people who are not qualified  
or expert or defects that result from the addition of non-original accessories or spare  
parts are not covered by the guarantee.  
10. Appliances that are easy to transport may be delivered or sent to the consumer services  
department. Home repairs are only anticipated for bulky appliances or built-in appli-  
ances.  
11. If the appliances are built-in, built-under, fixed or suspended in such a way that remov-  
ing and replacing them in the place where they are fitted takes more than half an hour,  
the costs that result therefrom will be charged for. Connected damage caused by these  
removal and replacement operations will be the responsibility of the user.

Guarantee conditions  
12. If, during the guarantee period, repairing the same defect repeatedly is not conclusive,  
or if the repair costs are considered disproportionate, in agreement with the consumer,  
the defective appliance may be replaced with another appliance of the same value.  
In this event, we reserve the right to ask for a financial contribution calculated accord-  
ing to the length of time it has been used.  
13. A repair under guarantee does not mean that the normal guarantee period will be ex-  
tended nor that a new guarantee period begins.  
14. We give a twelve month guarantee for repairs, limited to the same defect.  
15. Except in the event where liability is legally imposed, this declaration of guarantee  
terms excludes any compensation for damage outside the appliance for which the con-  
sumer wishes to assert his rights. In the event of legally admitted liability, compensa-  
tion will not exceed the purchase price paid for the appliance.  
These guarantee terms are only valid for appliances purchased and used in Belgium. For  
exported appliances, the user must first make sure that they satisfy the technical con-  
ditions (e.g.: voltage, frequency, installation instructions, type of gas, etc.) for the coun-  
try concerned and that they can withstand the local climatic and environmental  
conditions. For appliances purchased abroad, the user must first ensure that they meet  
the qualifications required in Belgium. Non-essential or requested adjustments are not  
covered by the guarantee and are not possible in all cases.  
Our consumer services department is always at your disposal, even after the guarantee  
period has expired.

Service  
In the section ”What to do if ...” there is a list of some faults which you  
can remedy yourself. Look there first if a fault occurs. If you find no in-  
formation there, please consult your Customer Service Centre.  
Always prepare in advance for the discussion. By doing so you will sim-  
plify the diagnosis and the decision on whether customer service is  
necessary.  
Note the PNC-number and the  
S-number. Both can be found on the  
rating plate on the inside of the door  
on your washing machine.  
PNC .....................................................  
S-No. .....................................................  
Answer as precisely as possible:  
• What form does the fault take?  
• Under what circumstances does the fault occur?  
• Does the multi display show an error message?  
When do you incur costs even during the warranty period?  
– if you could have dealt with the fault yourself with the aid of the  
Faults Table (see the section ”What to do if ...”) ,  
– if several trips by the customer service technician are necessary be-  
cause he had not received all the necessary information before his  
visit and must now e.g. fetch spare parts. These multiple trips can be  
avoided if you prepare your phone call as described above.
