Operating Instructions
Operating Instructions
1 Safety
The safety aspects of AEG electrical appliances comply with accepted
technical standards and the German Appliance Safety Law. However, as
manufacturers we regard it as our responsibility to inform you about
the following safety instructions.
Before Using for the First Time
• Refer to the "Installation and Connection Instructions" further on in
this user information.
• If units are delivered in the winter months at minus temperatures:
Store the washing machine at room temperature for a few hours be-
fore putting it into operation.
Correct Use
• The washing machine is only intended for washing normal domestic
washing. If the appliance is used for a wrong purpose or wrongly op-
erated, the manufacturer cannot assume any liability for any dam-
ages.
• Additions or modifications to the washing machine are strictly for-
bidden due to safety reasons.
• Use only detergent which is suitable for washing machines. Refer to
the detergent manufacturer's instructions.
• The washing must not contain any flammable solvents. Also bear this
in mind when washing pre-cleaned washing.
• Do not use the washing machine for dry-cleaning.
• Dyes /dye-removing agents may only be used in the washing machine
if the manufacturer expressly permits use of these products. We can-
not accept liability for any damage.
• Use only water from the water mains. Use rain water or service water
only if it meets the requirements defined in DIN 1986 and DIN 1988.
• Frost damage is not covered by the warranty! If the washing machine
is in a room subject to possible frost hazards, emergency emptying
must be carried out if there is a risk of frost (see the Section "Carry-
ing out emergency emptying“).
6
Operating Instructions
Safety of Children and Infirm Persons
• Packaging materials (e.g. films, polystyrene) can be dangerous for
children. Risk of suffocation! Keep packaging away from children.
• The appliance is not intendet for use by young children or infirm per-
sons without supervision.
• Children frequently cannot recognise hazards involved in handling
electrical appliances. Therefore, ensure that they are properly super-
vised during operation and never allow children to play with the
washing machine -there is a risk that they can lock themselves inside it.
• Ensure that children or small animals do not climb into the washing
machine's drum.
• When disposing of washing machines pull out the mains plug, destroy
the door lock, cut off the electrical supply lead and dispose of the
plug and remaining cable. This means that playing children cannot
shut themselves in and cannot encounter a potentially lethal hazard.
General Safety
• Repairs to the washing machine may only be carried out by qualified
specialists. Incorrect repairs may result in significant risk to the user.
If repairs are necessary, consult our customer service or your special-
ist dealer.
• Never use the washing machine if the mains cable is damaged or the
conrol panel, work surface or base panel area are so badly damaged
that the interior of the unit is openly 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 circuit breaker at
the household power distribution box or completely remove 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 risk of fire with overheating!
• Do not spray down the washing machine with a water jet. Risk of
electric shock!
• The glass in the door becomes hot in the case of wash programmes
with high temperatures. Do not touch!
7
Operating Instructions
• Allow the washing solution to cool before carrying out an emergency
emptying operation or cleaning the drain pump.
• 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
Disposing of the Packaging Material!
Dispose of the packaging of your washing machine correctly. All pakka-
ging materials used are environmentally-compatible and recyclable.
• Plastic parts are identified with internationally standardised abbrevi-
ations:
>PE<
>PS<
for polyethylene, e.g. packing films.
for polystyrene, e.g. cushion parts (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.
Disposing of your old appliance!
When you put your unit out of operation one day, please bring it to
your nearest recycling centre or to your dealer.

Operating Instructions
2 Environmental tips
• A pre-wash cycle is not necessary in the case of washing which is not
excessively dirt. This saves detergent, water and time (and is gentle on
the environment.)
• If the indicated load capacities are taken full advantage of, the wash-
ing machine is especially efficient.
• For small loads, use only one half to one third of the recommended
detergent quantity.
• Suitable pre-treatment enables marks and limited amounts of dirt to
be removed. You can then wash at a lower temperature.
• Wash slightly to normally dirty cottons with the energy-saving pro-
gram.
• There is often no need for the softener. Try it once! If you use a drier,
your washing will become soft and fluffy even without a softener.
• In the case of medium to high water hardness (hardness range runs to
upwards, see "Detergent and care agents“), you should use a water
softener. The detergent can then always be metered for hardness
range I (= soft).

Operating Instructions
40 - 60 MIX position: 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-CARES
Main washing cycle for easy-care textiles (mixed fabrics) at 40 °C to
60 °C.
EASY IRON position: Main washing cycle at 40 °C for easy-care tex-
tiles which, with the aid of this program, only have to be either gently
ironed or not ironed at all.
DELICATES
Main washing cycle for delicates at 30 °C or 40 °C.
WOOL/SILK/ P (Handwash)
Main washing cycle (cold up to 40 °C) for machine-washable woollens
and for hand-washable wool textile and silk with the care symbol
ï (handwash).
GENTLE RINSE
Separate gentle rinse e.g. for rinsing hand-washed textiles (2 rinses,
liquid care agent from rinsing compartment æ is added, short spin).
STARCHING
Separate starching, separate conditioner, separate impregnation of
damp washing (1 rinse, liquid care agent from the rinsing compartment
æ is added, spin).
PUMP OUT
Pumping off the water after a rinse hold (without spin).
RINSE HOLD means: The washing remains lying in the last rinsing water.
It is not spun.
3
SPIN
Pumping off the water after a rinse hold and spin, or separate spin of
hand-washed cottons/linen.
SHORT SPIN
Pumping off the water after a rinse hold and short spin or separate
short spin of sensitive textiles (easy-care washing, delicates, woollens).
12
Operating Instructions
Additional program buttons
The additional program buttons are for adapting
the washing program to the dirtiness of the
washing. Additional programs are not required for
washing which is not excessively dirty.
Various functions can be combined with each
other, depending on the program.
PRE WASH
Cold pre wash before the main washing cycle
which follows on automatically; with intermediate
spin at COTTONS/LINEN and EASY CARES, without
intermediate spin for DELICATES.
SOAKING
Approx. 1 hour at 30 °C or 40 °C, depending on the set program. Can be
extended by max. 19 hours with the button DELAY TIMER. This is follo-
wed by the main washing cycle.
QUICK WASH
Shorter washing cycle for slightly dirty washing.
STAIN
For treating very dirty washing or stained washing. (In-wash stain
treatment is added during the program on a time-optimized basis)
With the WOOL/SILK/P (Hand wash) program, it is not possible to se-
lect the additional programs (any buttons pressed have no effect).

values deviate from the stated values depending on the water pressure, water
hardness, water inlet temperature, room temperature, washing type and quantity,
the detergent used, fluctuations in the mains voltage and the selected additional
functions.
Running time display
The durations of the washing programs depend
3
on the washing habits and ambient conditions
at the installation location. E. g. the washing
type, washing quantity, type of detergent, wa-
ter temperature and room temperature etc.
can influence the duration of the washing program.
The washing machine saves from each program the running times of
the last wash cycles and calculates from them the average running time
for a washing cycle. This average running time is shown by the Multi-
display during the next wash.
After several washes, the running time shown in the multi display is
thereby adapted to the usual washing practice and the ambient condi-
tions at the installation location.
14
Operating Instructions
What does "UPDATE“ mean?
Your washing machine's washing programs are controlled by software.
New types of textiles or new detergents may require new washing pro-
grams in the future. In most cases, the software can be adapted to this.
For further information on the "update“, please consult the Customer
Service. You can also enquire about the costs for an "update“ with your
Customer Service.
Water Protection Aqua Control
In the event of damage to the supply hose, the system blocks the fur-
ther supply of water to the unit directly at 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.
Before the First Wash
0
Carry out a washing operation without washing (COTTONS 95 °C, with
half the quantity of washing powder/liquid).
This removes residues left over from production on the drum and solu-
tion container.
15
Operating Instructions
Prepare washing cycle
Sort washing and prepare
• Sort the washing according to the care symbol and type (see "Wash-
ing types and care codes").
• Empty all pockets.
• Remove metal objects (paper clips, safety pins etc.).
• To prevent damage to the washing and tangled washing: Close zip
fasteners, button bed and pillow covers closed, tie up loose strings
e.g. of aprons.
• Turn articles with double layered textiles inside out (sleeping bags,
anoraks etc.).
• In the case of knitted coloured textiles and also with wool and tex-
tiles with jewelry attached: turn inside out.
• Wash small and sensitive items (e.g. baby socks, tights and stockings,
bras etc.) in a washing net, a cushion with a zip fastener or in larger
socks.
• Handle curtains with particular care. Metal rollers or burred, plastic
rollers must be removed or tied into a net or bag. We cannot accept
liability for damage.
• Coloureds and white items must not be washed together in a washing
cycle. This could discolour white washing or turn it grey.
• There is often excess dye in new, coloured items. It is best to wash
such items separately the first time.
• Mix small and large items. This improves the washing effect and the
washing is more favourably distributed during spinning.
• Fluff washing before placing into the washing machine.
• Do not place folded washing into the drum.
• Pay attention to the care instruction "wash separately" and "wash
separately several times".

Operating Instructions
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 their care symbols.
The temperature indicated on the care symbol is the maximum wash
temperature.
Cottons ç
Cotton and linen items with this care symbol are not sensitive to ma-
chine washing or high temperatures. The COTTONS/LINEN programme is
suitable for this type of washing.
Linen è ë
Cotton and linen items with this care symbol are not sensitive to ma-
chine washing. The COTTONS/LINEN programme is suitable for this type
of washing.
Easy-Cares ê í
Materials such as fine cotton, wool-blend fabrics, viscose, and synthet-
ics with these care symbols require gentler treatment. The EASY-CARES/
EASY IRON programmes are suitable for this type of washing.
Delicatesì
Materials such as layered fibres, microfibres, viscose, synthetics, and net
curtains with this care symbol require particularly careful treatment.
The DELICATES programme is suitable for this type of washing.
Wool/silk and especially sensitive materials 9 ì ï
Woollens, wool blends and silk with these care symbols are particularly
sensitive to machine washing. The WOOL/SILK P (Handwash) pro-
gramme is suitable for this type of washing.
Important! Materials with the care symbol
(Not machine-washa-
ñ
ble!) should not be washed in the washing machine.

Operating Instructions
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
2
for minimum loads, add one third less for half loads and, in the case of
very small loads and for EASY IRON, only half the amount of detergent
recommended for a full load.
Refer to the detergent/care agent manufacturer's instructions on use
and dosage.
Water softener
For medium to high water hardness (hardness class II upwards), you
should use softener. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions. Then al-
ways add the appropriate amount of detergent for hardness class I
(= soft). The responisable water works will provide information on the
local water hardness.
Since the water softener is rinsed in before the main detergent (water
pre-softening), 80% of the stated quantity of softener shown on the
package is sufficient.

• The wrong detergent was used.
• Special soiling was not pre-treated.
• Program or temperature not set correctly.
• If multi-component detergents are used, the individual components
were not used in the correct ratio.
If there are still grey spots on the washing,
• Washing soiled with ointments, grease or oils was washed with too
little detergent.
• Too lower temperature was used for washing.
• A frequent cause is that softener - particularly that in concentrated
form - has reached the washing. Wash out such spots quickly and use
the softener concerned carefully.

• Modern detergents can also cause foam in the last rinse. However,
the washing is still sufficiently rinsed.
If there are white remnants on the washing
• These are insoluble components of modern detergents. They are not
the result of an insufficient rinsing effect.
Shake or brush out the washing. In future, perhaps you should turn
the washing inside out before washing it. Examine your choice of de-
tergent and if necessary use liquid detergent.

Installation and connection instructions
Installation of the appliance
Washing machines with curved panels are not suitable for installing
under units.
3
Transporting the appliance
• Do not place the washing machine on its front or on its right side
(viewed from the front). Otherwise, electrical components can get
wet.
• Never transport the unit without the transport safeguard. Do not re-
move the transport safeguard until the appliance is at the installation
location. Transporting the unit without the transport safeguard can
damage it.
• Lift the appliance neither by an open filling door nor by the base.
When transporting the unit with a sack trolley:
• Attach the sack trolley only at the side. The sack trolley shovel must
not be longer than 24 cm, otherwise the float switch can be de-
stroyed.
Remove transport packaging
Important! It is essential to re-
move the transport packaging be-
fore putting the appliance into
operation. Keep all parts of the
transport packaging in a safe
place for future use.
01. Open both hose holders on the
appliance's rear side and remove
the hoses and mains cable.
44
Installation and connection instructions
2. Pull both hose holders off the ap-
pliance with a strong pull.
The special spanner (A) and the
caps (B) (2 each) and (C) (1 each)
are supplied with it.
3
3. Remove the screw D, including
the compression spring with the
special spanner A.
4. Cover the hole with the cap C.
Important! When fitting the
plastic caps, press until they snap
into the rear panel securely.
5. Remove the two screws (E) with
the special spanner (A).
6. Remove the 4 screws (F).
7. Remove the transit bar (G).
8. Screw the 4 screws (F) back in for
safe keeping.
9. Close the 2 large holes with the
caps (B).
Important! When fitting the
plastic caps, press until they snap
into the rear panel securely.
45
Installation and connection instructions
Prepare the installation place
• The installation surface must be clean and dry, free of floor polish
residues and other greasy coatings so that the unit does not slip
away. Do not use lubricants as a sliding aid.
• Installation on a high-veil carpet or floor tiles with soft sponge backs
is not recommended because the standing safety of the appliance is
then no longer ensured.
• By installation surfaces with small-format tiles, lay a conventional
rubber mat underneath.
• Minor unevenness of the floor surface should never be levelled out by
laying pieces of wood, card or similar materials, but rather should al-
ways be compensated for by adjusting the screw feet.
• If, for space reasons, it is not possible to avoid setting up the unit di-
rectly next to a gas or coal-fired cooker: install a thermal insulation
panel between the cooker and washing machine (85 x 57cm) which
must have an aluminium film 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 hazard!
• Flexible feed and drain tubings may not be crinkled or squeezed.
Installation on a concrete base
If the unit is set up on a concrete base,
for safety reasons it is essential to fit
stand plates in which the washing ma-
chine is adjusted. The stand plates are
available from Customer Service under
the spare parts number 645 425 058.
Installation on vibrating floors
Where the floor vibrates, particularly in the case of wooden beam
floors with pliable boards, securely screw a water-resistant wooden
panel at least 15mm thick onto at least 2 floor planks. If possible, set up
the unit in the corner of a room, as the wooden floor is optimally re-
strained there and is therefore least likely to be subject to resonance vi-
brations.
46
Installation and connection instructions
Compensate for floor unevenness
Automatic adjustment foot: The rear left foot of your washing ma-
chine is designed as a spring leg. This means that it guarantees that
your unit will stand securely even at high spin speeds.
3
If, nevertheless, the washing machine is unstable during spinning,
please proceed as follows:
01. Set the three adjusted feet at the
nominal value of 10 mm. To do
this, use the supplied special
spanner to remove the transport
safeguard.
If the automatically adjusting
foot does not reach the floor:
2. Automatic adjustment foot (rear
left) manually for extending the
reqired dimension.
3. If necessary, check the setting
with a spirit level.
Caution! Never use wood, card or
similar underlays to level out minor
floor unevenness. Instead, always adjust
the adjustment foot.
47
Installation and connection instructions
Electrical connection
Details of the mains voltage, current
type and required fuses can be
found on the rating plate. The ra-
ting plate is located at the top
above the filling door.
For permanent electrical connection
within the electrical circuit, provi-
sions must be made which allow for electrical disconnection of the ap-
pliance from the mains with a contact opening of at least 3 mm at all
poles. Suitable devices include circuit breakers, fuses (threaded fuses
must be entirely removed from the socket), ground fault circuit inter-
rupters and contactors. Permanent connection may only be carried out
by an authorised electrician.
This appliance complies with the following EC directives:
– The "Low Voltage Directive" 72/23/EU with changes
– The "EMC Directive" 89/336/EU with changes
;
Water connection
The washing machine has safety features which prevent back-contami-
3
nation of the drinking water and which conform to the national regu-
lations of the water authorities (e.g. for Germany: DVGW guidelines).
This means that additional protective measures in the installation are
not necessary.
Important!
– Units for connecting to cold water must not be connected to hot wa-
ter.
– Use only new hose sets for the connection.
Permissible water pressure
The water pressure must be at least 1 bar (= 10 N/cm2 = 0.1 Mpa), max-
imum 10 bar = 100 N/cm2 = 1 Mpa).
• If more than 10 bar: Connect a pressure-reduction valve upstream.
• If less than 1 bar: Unscrew the inlet hose on the unit side at the sole-
noid intake valve and remove the flow regulator (to do this, remove
the filter with pointed pliers and take out the rubber washer behind).
Replace the filter.
48
Installation and connection instructions
Water inflow
A pressure hose 1.5m in length is supplied.
If a longer inflow hose is required, only a VDE-approved, complete set
of hoses with fitted hose screw connections offered by our Customer
Service is permissible.
– Hose sets in lengths of 2.2m, 3.5m and 5m are available for washing
machines without Aqua-Control.
– Hose sets in lengths of 2.0m, 2.9m and 3.9m are available for wash-
ing machines with Aqua-Control.
Caution! Never cut into pieces in order to extend the hoses!
Sealing rings are supplied either in the plastic
nuts of the hose screw connection or in the enc-
losed pack. Do not use other seals!
3
01. Connect the hose with the angled connection to
the machine.
Caution!
– Do not lay the infeed hose ver-
tically downwards. Instead, turn
it to the right or left as shown
in the diagram.
– Tighten the hose connection
only by hand.
2. Connect the hose with the straight connection
to a water tap with a R 3/4 (inch) screw thread.
Caution! Only tighten the screw connection ma-
nually.
3. By slowly opening the water tap before putting
the washing machine into operation, check that
the connection is free of leaks.
49
Installation and connection instructions
Water drain
The drainage hose can either be connected to a siphon or hung in a
wash basin or discharge basin or a bath tub.
Only original hoses may be used for extensions (max. 3m laid on the
floor and then up to 80cm high). Customer Service stocks drainage
hoses in lengths of 2.7 and 4m.
Important! It is essential to lay the drainage hose without kinks.
Water drain-off inside a siphon
The grommet on the hose end fits all
standard siphon types.
0
Secure the connection between the
grommet and siphon with a hose clamp.
Water drain-off inside a basin
Important!
– Small basins are not suitable for
drainage. Water could overflow!
– The end of the drainage hose must not
be submerged in the pumped-out wa-
ter. Otherwise, the water could be
sucked back into the unit.
– When hanging in a wash basin or a
bath tub, the drainage hose must be
secured with the supplied attachable
bend to prevent it slipping. The back-
surge force of the escaping water
could otherwise force the hose out of
the basin.
0
Tie the bend to the tap or the wall using
a piece of string.
Delivery heads over 1m
To pump off the washing / rinsing solution, every washing machine has
a drain pump which carries liquids up to a height of 1m via the drain-
age hose, calculated from the machine's standing surface.
Please contact Customer Service for delivery heads of over 1m.

In the chapter "What to do if...“ , some faults are listed which you can
remedy yourself. Look there first if a fault occurs. If you do not find any
information there, please consult your Customer Service. (You can find
the addresses and telephone numbers in the section "Customer Service
Centres“.)
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 S. num-
ber. You will find both on the rating
plate on the inside of the door of
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 remedied the fault yourself with the aid of the fault
table (see the section "What to do if..."),
– If several journeys by the customer service technician are necessary
because for example he did not receive all the important information
before his visit and must collect spare parts. These multiple trips can
be avoided if you prepare your phone call as described above.
