5. HINTS AND TIPS

WARNING!

Refer to Safety chapters.

5.1 The laundry load

• Divide the laundry in: white, col-

oured, synthetics, delicates and

wool.

• Obey the washing instructions that

are on the laundry care labels.

• Do not wash together white and

coloured items.

• Some coloured items can discolour

with the ﬁ rst wash. We recommend

that you wash them separately for

the ﬁ rst times.

• Button up pillowcases, close zip-

pers, hooks and poppers. Tie up

belts.

• Empty the pockets and unfold the

items.

• Turn inside out multilayered fabrics,

wool and items with painted illustra-

tions.

• Pretreat hard stains.

• Wash with a special detergent

heavy soil stains.

• Be careful with the curtains. Re-

move the hooks or put the curtains

in a washing bag or pillowcase.

• Do not wash in the appliance laun-

dry without hems or with cuts. Use

a washing bag to wash small and/or

delicate items (e.g. underwired bras,

belts, tights, etc. ).

• A very small load can cause bal-

ance problems with the spin phase.

If this occurs, adjust manually the

items in the tub and start the spin

phase again.

5.2 Stubborn stains

For some stains, water and detergent

is not sufﬁ cient.

We recommend that you pretreat

these stains before you put the items

in the appliance.

Special stain removers are available.

Use the special stain remover that

is applicable to the type of stain and

fabric.

5.3 Detergents and additives

• Only use detergents and additives

specially made for washing ma-

chines:

– powder detergents for all types

of fabric,

– powder detergents for delicate

fabrics (40°C max) and wool-

lens,

– liquid detergents, preferably for

low temperature wash pro-

14 www.aeg.com

HINTS AND TIPS

grammes (60°C max) for all

types of fabric, or special for

woollens only.

• Do not mix different types of deter-

gents.

• To help the environment, do not use

more than the correct quantity of

detergent.

• Obey the instructions that you ﬁ nd

on the on packaging of these prod-

ucts.

• Use the correct products for the

type and colour of the fabric, the

programme temperature and the

level of soil.

• If your appliance has not the deter-

gent dispenser with the ﬂ ap device,

add the liquid detergents with a dos-

ing ball (supplied by the detergent’s

manufacturer).

5.4 Ecological hints

• Set a programme without the pre-

wash phase to wash laundry with

normal soil.

• Always start a washing programme

with the maximum allowed load of

laundry.

• If necessary, use a stain remover

when you set a programme with a

low temperature.

• To use the correct quantity of the

detergent, refer to “Water Hardness”

(5.5).

5.5 Water hardness

If the water hardness in your area is

high or moderate, we recommend that

you use a water softener for washing

machines. In areas where the water

hardness is soft it is not necessary to

use a water softener.

To know the water hardness in your

area, contact your local water author-

ity.

Use the correct quantity of the water

softener. Obey the instructions that

you ﬁ nd on the packaging of the prod-

uct.

15ENGLISH

6. BEFORE FIRST USE

1. Make sure that all transit bolts are

removed.

2. Make sure that the electrical and

water connection are available.

3. Put 2 litre of water in the detergent

compartment for washing phase.

This activates the drain system.

4. Put a small quantity of detergent

in the compartment for washing

phase.

5. Set and start a programme for

cotton at the highest temperature

without laundry. This removes all

possible dirt from the drum and the

tub.

1)

To reduce the creases of the laundry, this cycle regulates the water temperature and

performs a soft wash and spin phase. The appliance adds some rinses.

2)

During this cycle the drum rotates slowly to ensure a gentle washing. It can seem that

the drum doesn’t rotate or doesn’t rotate properly. Consider this as a normal functioning

of the appliance.

3)

The maximum spin speed is suitable with cottons items. Set the spin speed and make

sure that it agrees with the type of laundry. If you set a spin speed a 800 rpm or less,

the appliance performs a short spin. If you set No Spin option, only the drain phase is

available.

4)

The maximum spin speed is suitable with cottons items. Set the spin speed and make

sure that it agrees with the type of laundry. If you set a spin speed a 800 rpm or less,

the appliance performs a short spin.

5)

Set this programme to decrease the energy and water consumption maintaining a good

washing performance.

6)

Standard programmes for the Energy Label consumption values. According to regu-

lation 1061/2010, these programmes are respectively the «Standard 60°C cotton

programme» and the «Standard 40°C cotton programme». They are the most efﬁ cient

programmes in terms of combined energy and water consumption for washing normally

PROGRAMMES

Steam programmes

1)

Steam can be used for dried, washed

or worn once laundry. These pro-

grammes can reduce creases and

odours and make your laundry more

Do not use any detergent. If neces-

sary, remove stains by washing or

using localized stain removal.

Steam programmes do not perform

any hygienic cycle.

Do not set a Steam programme with

these types of items:
