Safety instructions  
The safety of AEG appliances complies with the industry standards and  
with legal requirements on the safety of appliances. However, as man-  
ufacturers, we feel it is our duty to provide the following safety notes.  
General notes  
Repairs to the machine must be carried out only by qualified person-  
nel. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons could cause serious  
danger. Contact our Service Centre or your AEG dealer.  
Never start the machine if the electrical supply cable is damaged or  
the control panel or worktop are so damaged that inner components  
can be reached.  
Unplug the appliance before carrying out any cleaning or mainte-  
nance operations.  
Never pull the power supply cable to remove the plug from the sock-  
et; always take hold of the plug itself.  
Never spray the washing machine with a jet of water. Danger of elec-  
trocution!  
During high temperature wash programmes the door glass may get  
hot. Do not touch it!  
Let the water cool down before carrying out emergency emptying or  
before opening the door in an emergency.  
• Small animals can gnaw electric wires and water hoses causing elec-  
trocution hazard and damage due to water leaks.  
Positioning, connection, starting up  
Follow the instructions for positioning and connection.  
Carry out a first wash without laundry (COTTONS 60, with half the  
amount of detergent) in order to remove any manufacturing residue  
from the tub and the drum.  
• Should the machine be purchased in winter, when temperatures can  
be below 0°, leave the appliance for 24 hours at ambient temperature  
before starting it.

Safety instructions  
Child safety  
Children are often not aware of how dangerous electrical appliances  
can be. When the machine is working, they should be carefully super-  
vised and not be allowed to play with the appliance - there is a risk  
that they could become trapped inside.  
The packaging components (e.g. plastic film, polystyrene) can be dan-  
gerous to children - danger of suffocation! Keep them out of chil-  
drens reach.  
Make sure that children or pets do not climb into the drum.  
When the appliance is disposed of, pull the plug out of the socket,  
cut off the electrical supply cable and destroy the plug with the  
remaining cable. Disable the door catch in order to prevent children  
from becoming trapped inside while playing.  
Proper use  
This appliance is designed for domestic use only. If the machine is  
used for any other purposes or is not used correctly, the manufactur-  
er accepts no responsibility for any possible damage that might occur.  
For safety reasons, the appliance must not be modified.  
Use only detergents suitable for washing machines and follow the  
manufacturers instructions.  
Laundry must not have any trace of inflammable solvents; be partic-  
ularly careful when washing items that have been previously dry  
cleaned.  
Dyes and bleaching agents may only be used if specifically permitted  
by the manufacturer of these products. We cannot be held responsi-  
ble for any damage.  
Use only water supplied from the rising mains. Rainwater or industri-  
al water may only be used if the requirements of standards DIN 1986  
and DIN 1988 are complied with.

Tips for environmental protection  
Lightly soiled laundry may be washed without prewashing in order to  
save detergent, water and time (the environment is protected too!).  
The machine works more economically if it is fully loaded.  
When small loads are washed, use only half to two thirds of the rec-  
ommended amount of detergent.  
With adequate pre-treatment, stains and limited soiling can be  
removed; the laundry can then be washed at a lower temperature.  
Try not to use fabric softeners. If the laundry is machine dried, it will  
remain soft even without using fabric softeners.  
• If the water has a medium or high degree of hardness (starting from  
degree of hardness II, see “Detergents and additives) water softeners  
must be added.  
The amount of detergent can then be adjusted to degree of hardness  
I (= soft).

Main features of your washing machine  
• Selection of the programme and temperature by means of the same  
selector knob.  
The Programme phase indicator shows the wash cycle progress.  
The DELAY START option allows you to delay starting of the wash  
programme to the desired time of day.  
The ANTICREASE function (stop with water in drum) can be selected  
for all fabrics: the laundry is left immersed in the final rinse water to  
avoid the formation of creases.  
Because of its gentle washing action, the special wool cycle washes  
your garments with extreme care, without felting them.

Cancelling a programme  
To cancel a programme which is running, turn the programme selector  
knob to the CANCEL (IPTAL) position: three flashing dashes will be dis-  
played.  
Warning! After a programme which ends with water in the drum  
(ANTICREASE option - SUDA BEKLETME), turn the selector knob first to  
CANCEL (IPTAL) and then to the empty programme J.  
Modification of a programme which is running  
To modify a programme, first set the machine to PAUSE by pressing the  
START/PAUSE (START ARA VERME) button.  
Before the machine starts the heating phase, i.e. within the first 15  
minutes for cotton programmes, 10 minutes for synthetic and delicate  
programmes and 5 minutes for the wool programme, the selected wash  
cycle can be modified.

Description of the appliance  
Warning! If the programme selector knob is turned first to CANCEL  
(IPTAL) and then to the new programme, the programme which is run-  
ning is cancelled, the water is emptied out and the machine re-starts  
from water filling. To simply modify the programme which is running,  
turn the programme selector knob to the desired position (avoiding the  
CANCEL position): when the START/PAUSE (START ARA VERME) button  
is pressed again, the machine restarts with the newly selected pro-  
gramme from the point at which it was interrupted.  
Opening the door after the programme has started  
The door can only be opened before the machine starts the heating  
phase (within the first 15, 10 or 5 minutes, depending on the pro-  
gramme selected - see paragraph above) and during the rinse phase.  
Set the machine to PAUSE (by pressing the START/PAUSE - START ARA  
VERME button).  
If the door does not open, this means that the machine is already heat-  
ing, or that the water level is above the bottom edge of the door.  
This prevents large quantities of water from gushing out when the door  
is opened.  
The door cannot be opened until the pilot light has gone out.

Description of the appliance  
Detergent and additive dispenser drawer  
Compartment for prewash detergent. It is emptied at the beginning of  
the wash programme.  
Compartment for powder or liquid detergent used for main wash.  
It is emptied at the beginning of the wash cycle.  
Compartment for liquid additives (fabric softener, starch).  
It is emptied at the last rinse.  
The quantity of additives must not exceed the «MAX» mark in the  
drawer.  
Before the first wash  
Before your first wash, we recommend that you run a cotton cycle at  
60°C, without any laundry in the machine, to remove any manufac-  
turing residue from the drum and tub.  
Pour 1/2 a measure of detergent into the dispenser drawer and start the  
machine.

Preparing the wash cycle  
Sorting out and preparing the laundry  
• Sort out the laundry according to type of fabrics and care labels (see  
Types of fabric and care labels”).  
Empty pockets.  
Remove any metal parts (safety pins, clips, etc.).  
To prevent the laundry from getting damaged and forming bundles,  
it is advisable to close zips, button up pillowcases and quilt covers and  
tie up loose straps such as those of aprons.  
Turn double faced items inside out (sleeping bags, anoraks, etc.)  
Turn coloured knitted fabrics, woollens and fabrics with trim inside  
out.  
Wash small and delicate items (baby socks, tights) inside a laundry net  
or in a pillow case closed with a zip, or in larger socks.  
Treat curtains with special care. Remove all metal or plastic hooks or  
put them in a net or a bag. We decline any responsibility in case of  
damage.  
Whites and coloureds must be washed separately: white items can  
loose their whiteness.  
New coloured fabrics often have excess dyes; it is advisable to wash  
them separately for the first time.  
Wash small and large items together; this improves the washing result  
and the laundry is better distributed during spinning.  
• Shake out garments before putting them into the machine.  
• Insert each garment separately.

Detergents and additives  
Which detergent and additive?  
Use only detergents and additives for washing machines. Follow the  
manufacturers instructions.  
How much detergent?  
The quantity depends on:  
• the load:  
if the manufacturer does not provide any indications on the amount of  
detergent for small loads, use about one third less than the suggested  
amount for half loads and half the amount for very small loads;  
• the degree of soil:  
use a small amount of detergent for lightly soiled garments. Judge  
the amount according to the detergent manufacturers instructions  
and size of the load;  
• the water hardness:  
the harder the water, the more detergent required. Instructions  
according to water hardness are given on the detergent pack.  
Liquid detergent  
Liquid detergent can be poured directly into the main wash compartment  
of the dispenser drawer immediately before starting the programme, or  
a special dispenser can be used that is placed directly in the drum. Mea-  
sure the detergent according to the manufacturers instructions.  
Adding a water softener  
A water softener must be added when water has a medium-high degree  
of hardness (from degree of hardness II). Follow the manufacturers  
instructions. The quantity of detergent can then always be adjusted to  
degree of hardness I (= soft). Information on water hardness can be  
obtained from your local water supply authority.

Cleaning and maintenance  
After each wash  
At the end of the wash programme, pull the dispenser drawer out a lit-  
tle to let it dry.  
Leave the door ajar to allow air to circulate.  
If the machine is not used for a prolonged period:  
Close the water tap(s) and unplug the appliance.  
Periodical cleaning  
Bodywork  
Clean the outside of the machine with warm water and a neutral, non-  
abrasive household detergent. Rinse with clean water and dry with a  
soft cloth.  
Important: do not use methylated spirits, solvents or similar products  
to clean the bodywork.  
Detergent dispenser drawer  
After a while,  
detergents and  
fabric softeners  
leave deposits in

Clean the drawer,  
from time to  
time, by rinsing it  
under a running  
tap. To remove  
the drawer from the machine, press the button in the rear left-hand  
corner.  
To facilitate cleaning, the top part of the additive compartment can  
be removed.  
Detergent can also accumulate inside the  
drawer recess: clean it with an old tooth-  
brush. Refit the drawer after cleaning.

If you notice that the machine is taking  
longer to fill, check that the filter in the  
water inlet hose is not blocked.  
Turn off the water tap.  
Unscrew the hose from the tap and remove  
the filter.  
Clean it with a stiff brush.  
Refit the filter and screw the hose back onto  
the tap.

Cleaning and maintenance  
Emergency emptying out  
If the water is not discharged (pump is blocked, filter or drain hose are  
clogged), proceed as follows to empty out the machine:  
• pull out the plug from the power socket;  
• close the water tap;  
• if necessary, wait until the water has cooled;  
• place a bowl on the floor;  
• put the drain hose end into the bowl and let the water come out.  
Should it not be possible to have access to the drain hose because, for  
example the appliance is built in the kitchen furniture, slightly loosen  
the drain filter after placing a bowl on the floor to let the water come  
out slowly.  
At the end screw the filter again.  
Frost precautions  
If the machine is installed in a place where the temperature could drop  
below 0°C, proceed as follows:  
Close the water tap and unscrew the water inlet hose from the tap.  
• Place the end of the drain hose and the inlet hose in a bowl placed  
on the floor.  
• Select the empty” programme J and run it until the machine stops.  
Turn the programme selector to CANCEL (IPTAL).  
• Press the ON/OFF (AÇMA KAPAMA) button.  
Remove the plug from the power socket.  
• Screw the water inlet hose back on and put the drain hose back in its  
place.  
By doing this, any water remaining in the machine is removed, avoid-  
ing the formation of ice and, consequently, breakage of the parts  
involved.  
When you use the machine again, make sure that the ambient temper-  
ature is above 0°C.

Something not working?  
If, during the spin cycle, the machine makes an unusual  
whistling noise, different from the noise made  
by traditional washing machines, this is due to  
a new type of motor.  
If water is not visible in the drum, this is due to  
the modern technology of new washing  
machines that use less water than traditional  
machines.  
Troubleshooting  
If a problem arises, you can try to solve it yourself following the  
instructions below. If you call out an engineer when one of the follow-  
ing problems arises, or to repair a fault due to incorrect use, the call-  
out will be charged even if requested within the guarantee period.

Unsatisfactory washing results  
If the laundry looks grey and lime scale is found in the drum  
Too little detergent has been used.  
An unsuitable detergent has been used.  
• Stubborn stains have not been treated prior to washing.  
The programme/temperature have not been correctly selected.  
If grey stains remain on the laundry  
Laundry stained with ointments, grease or oil has been washed with  
an insufficient amount of detergent.  
The temperature selected for the wash programme was too low.  
Fabric softener - especially the concentrated type - has come into  
direct contact with the laundry. Wash these stains immediately and  
pour fabric softener carefully.  
Foam is still visible even after the last rinse  
Modern detergents often produce foam, even in the last rinse. How-  
ever the laundry has been completely rinsed.  
White residue is left on the laundry  
This is due to insoluble components in modern detergents and is  
therefore not the result of insufficient rinsing. Shake or brush the  
laundry. In future, it may be better to turn garments inside out before  
washing them. Check the choice of detergent; try using liquid deter-  
gents.

Installation  
Unpacking  
All transit bolts and packing must be  
removed before using the appliance.  
Using a spanner, unscrew and remove the  
rear right-hand bolt and lay the machine on  
its back, taking care not to squash the hoses.  
This can be avoided by placing one of the  
corner packing pieces between the machine  
and the floor.  
Remove the  
polystyrene  
block from the  
bottom of the  
machine and  
release the two  
plastic bags by  
removing the  
adhesive strip.  
2
1
Carefully remove  
the right-hand bag (1) then the left-hand bag (2) by pulling them towards  
the centre of the machine.  
Set the machine  
upright and  
remove the two  
remaining bolts  
from the back.  
Pull out the  
three plastic  
spacers from the  
holes into which  
the bolts were fitted.  
Plug the open holes with the plugs which you will find at the back of the  
appliance.  
You are advised to keep all transit devices so that they can be refitted  
if the machine ever has to be transported again.

Installation  
Positioning  
Install the machine on a flat hard floor.  
Make sure that air circulation around the machine is not impeded by  
carpets, rugs etc. Check that the machine does not touch the wall or  
other kitchen units.  
The floor surface must be clean and dry, without any wax or polish  
residue to avoid any possibility of sliding. Do not use viscous sub-  
stances to move the appliance into place by sliding it across the floor.  
• It is inadvisable to place the machine on long-haired rugs or carpet  
or on layers of foam-rubber as this would affect its stability.  
Before placing it on small tiles, apply a rubber coating.  
• If the appliance is positioned on flexible floors, especially wooden  
beams with flexible floorboards, use a 15 mm thick, water resistant  
panel of wood, screwed to at least two of the floor beams. If possi-  
ble, position the machine in a corner of the room, where the beams  
are more solidly fixed and tend to be more stable.  
Never try to correct any unevenness in the floor by putting pieces of  
wood, cardboard or similar materials under the machine.  
• If it is impossible to avoid positioning the machine next to a gas  
cooker or coal-burning stove, an insulating panel (85x57 cm) covered  
with aluminium foil on the side facing the cooker or stove, must be  
inserted between the two appliances;  
The machine must not be installed in rooms where the temperature  
can drop below 0.  
The water inlet hose and the drain hose must not be kinked.  
Levelling  
Carefully level by  
screwing the  
adjustable feet in  
or out. Never  
place cardboard,  
wood or similar  
materials under  
the machine to  
compensate for  
any unevenness in the floor.  
After having levelled the machine, tighten the lock nuts.

Installation  
Directly into a  
drain pipe at a  
height of not less  
than 60 cm and  
not more than  
90 cm.  
The end of the  
drain hose must always be ventilated, i.e. the inside diameter of the  
drain pipe must be larger than the outside diameter of the drain hose.  
The drain hose must not be kinked. Run it along the floor; only the part  
near the drainage point must be raised.  
Electrical connection  
This machine is designed to operate on a 220-230 V, single-phase,  
50 Hz supply.  
Check that your domestic electrical installation can take the maximum  
load required (2.2 kW), also taking into account any other appliances in  
use.  
Connect the machine to an earthed socket.  
The manufacturer declines any responsibility for damage or injury  
through failure to comply with the above safety precaution.  
Permanent connection  
In the case of a permanent connection it is necessary that you install a  
double pole switch between the appliance and the electricity supply  
(mains), with a minimum gap of 3 mm between the switch contacts and  
of a type suitable for the required load in compliance with the current  
electrical regulations.  
The switch must not break the yellow and green earth cable at any  
point.  
This operation has only to be performed by a qualified electrician.

Installation  
Water inlet  
Connect the  
water inlet hose  
to a separate tap  
with a 3/4"  
thread after hav-  
ing inserted the  
small filter A”  
supplied with the  
machine.  
A
The other end of the inlet hose which connects to the machine can be  
turned in any direction. Simply loosen the fitting, rotate the hose and  
retighten the fitting, making sure there are no water leaks.  
The inlet hose must not be lengthened. If it is too short and you do not  
wish to move the tap, you will have to purchase a new, longer hose spe-  
cially designed for this type of use.  
Water drainage  
The end of the drain hose can be positioned  
in three ways:  
Hooked over the edge of a sink using the  
plastic hose guide supplied with the  
machine. In this case, make sure the end  
cannot come unhooked when the machine  
is emptying.  
This could be done by tying it to the tap  
with a piece of string or attaching it to the  
wall.  
In a sink drain pipe branch. This branch must be above the trap so that  
the bend is at least 60 cm above the ground.
