1) According to UK Ecodesign for Energy-Related Products and Energy Information Regulations, this
programme at default temperature and spin speed, in washing only mode, with rated capacity 10 kg is
able to clean normally soiled cotton laundry declared to be washable at 40 °C or 60 °C, together in the
same cycle.
For the reached temperature in the laundry, the programme duration and other data,
please refer to 'Consumption Values' chapter.
The most efficient programmes in terms of energy consumption are generally those that
perform at lower temperatures and longer duration.
2) According to UK Ecodesign for Energy-Related Products and Energy Information Regulations, this
programme at default temperature and spin speed, in washing and drying mode, with rated capacity 6 kg
and with Cupboard dry level performs the wash and dry cycle able to clean normally soiled cotton laundry
declared to be washable at 40 °C or 60 °C, together in the same cycle and, after drying phase, the laun‐
dry can be immediately stored in a cupboard.
3) During this cycle the drum rotates slowly to ensure a gentle wash. It can seem that the drum doesn't
rotate or doesn't rotate properly, but this is normal for this programme.
4) If you set a Steam programme with dried laundry, at the end of the cycle the laundry could be humid. It
is better to expose the items to the fresh air for about 10 minutes to let the humidity dry. When the pro‐
gramme is completed, quickly remove the laundry from the drum. After a steam cycle, items may be iron‐
ed however with less effort.

The released fluff could stick to the
fabrics during the next cycle.
This inconvenient increases with
technical fabrics.
To prevent the fluff in your laundry:
Do not wash dark fabrics after you
washed and dried light coloured
fabrics (hand towel, wool, sweatshirt )
and the contrary.
Dry this type of fabrics at open air
when they are washed the first time.
Clean the drain filter.

16. HINTS AND TIPS
WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
16.1 The laundry load
Divide the laundry into: white,
coloured, synthetics, delicates and
wool.
Follow the washing instructions on the
laundry care labels.
Do not wash white and coloured items
together.
Some coloured items can discolour
with the first wash. We recommend
that you wash them separately for the
first couple of times.
ENGLISH 35
Turn multilayered fabrics, wool and
items with printed illustrations inside
out.
Pre-treat stubborn stains.
Wash stubborn stains with a special
detergent.
Be careful with curtains. Remove the
hooks and put the curtains in a
washing bag or pillowcase.
A very small load can cause balance
problems with the spin phase leading
to excessive vibration. If this occurs:
a. interrupt the programme and
open the door (refer to "Daily
Use" chapter);
b. manually redistribute the load so
that the items are spaced evenly
around the tub;
c. press the Start/Pause button.
The spin phase continues.
Button up pillowcases, close zippers,
hooks and poppers. Tie up belts,
cords, shoelaces, ribbons and any
other loose elements.
Do not wash laundry without hems or
with cuts. Use a washing bag to wash
small and/or delicate items (e.g.
underwired bras, belts, tights,
shoelaces, ribbons, etc. ).
Empty pockets and unfold the items.
16.2 Stubborn stains
For some stains, water and detergent is
not sufficient.
We recommend that you pre-treat 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.
Do not spray stain remover on garments
near the appliance as it is corrosive to
the plastic parts.
16.3 Detergent type and
quantity
The choice of detergent and use of
correct quantities not only affects your
wash performance, but also helps to
avoid waste and protect the environment:
Use only detergents and other
treatments specially made for
washing machines. First, follow these
generic rules:
powder detergents (also tablets
and single-dose detergents) for all
types of fabric, excluding delicate.
Prefer powder detergents
containing bleach for whites and
laundry sanitization,
liquid detergents (also single-dose
detergents) , preferably for low
temperature wash programmes
(60 °C max) for all types of fabric,
or special ones for woollens only.
The choice and quantity of detergent
will depend on: type of fabric
(delicates, woollens, cottons, etc), the
colour of clothes, size of the load,
degree of soiling, wash temperature
and hardness of the water used.
Follow the instructions that you find
on packaging of the detergents or
other treatments without exceeding
the indicated maximum level ( ).
Do not mix different types of
detergents.
Use less detergent if:
www.aeg.com36
you are washing a small load,
the laundry is lightly soiled,
there is large amounts of foam
during washing.
When using detergent tabs or pods,
always put them inside the drum, not
in the detergent dispenser and follow
the manufacturer's
recommendations .
Insufficient detergent may cause:
unsatisfactory washing results,
the wash load to turn grey,
greasy clothes,
mould in the appliance.
Excessive detergent may cause:
• sudsing,
reduced washing effect,
inadequate rinsing,
a greater impact for the environment.
16.4 Ecological hints
To save water, energy and to help
protect the environment, we recommend
that you follow these tips:
may beNormally soiled laundry
washed in order towithout prewash
save detergent, water and time (the
environment is protected too!).
Loading the appliance to the
maximum capacity indicated for
each programmes helps to reduce
energy and water consumption.
With adequate pre-treatment, stains
and limited soiling can be removed;
the laundry can then be washed at a
lower temperature.
To use the correct quantity of
detergent, refer to the quantity
suggested by the detergent producer
and check the water hardness of you
domestic system. Refer to 'Water
hardness'.
Set the maximum possible spin
speed for the selected programme for
saving energy during drying phase!
16.5 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 find out the water hardness in your
area, contact your local water authority.
Use the correct quantity of water
softener. Follow the instructions that you
find on the packaging of the product.
16.6 Prepare the drying cycle
Open the water tap.
Check if the drain hose is connected
properly. Refer to installation chapter
for more information.
For the maximum laundry load of the
drying programmes, refer to the
drying programmes table.

life of your appliance.
After each cycle, keep the door and the
detergent dispenser slightly ajar to get air
circulation and dry the humidity inside
the appliance: this will prevent mildew
and odours.
If the appliance is not used for a long
time: close the water tap and unplug the
appliance.
Indicative periodic cleaning schedule:
Descaling Twice a year
Maintenance wash Once a month
Clean door seal Every two months

If the water hardness in your
area is high or moderate, we
recommend that you use a
water descaling product for
washing machines.
Regularly examine the drum to check for
limescale.
The regular detergents already contain
water softening agents, but we
recommend to run a cycle with empty
drum and a descaling product
occasionally.
Always follow the
instructions that you find on
the packaging of the
product.
17.5 Maintenance wash
The repeated and prolonged use of low
temperature programmes can cause
detergent deposits, fluff residues,
bacterial growth inside the drum and the
tub. This could generate bad odours and
mildew.
To eliminate these deposits and
hygienize the inner part of the appliance,
run a maintenance wash regularly (at
least once a month):
1. Remove all laundry from the drum.
2. Run a cotton programme with the
highest temperature with a small
quantity of powder detergent or, if
available, run the Machine Clean
programme.
17.6 Door seal
This appliance is designed with a self
cleaning draining system, allowing light
fluff fibers that fall off the clothes to be
drained out with the water. Regularly
examine the seal. Coins, buttons, other
small items can be recovered at the end
of the cycle.
Clean it when needed, using ammonia
cream cleanser agent without scratching
the seal surface.
Always obey the instructions
that you find on the
packaging of the product.
17.7 Cleaning the drum

unwanted deposits.
Rust deposits in the drum may occur due
to rusting foreign body in the washing or
tap water containing iron.
Clean the drum with special products for
stainless steel.

instructions that you find on
the packaging of the
product.
Do not clean the drum with
acidic descaling products,
scouring products containing
chlorine or iron or steel.
For a thorough clean:
