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 temperatures: 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 designed, the manufacturer can accept no liability for any resulting damages. • For safety reasons, conversions or modifications to the washing machine 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 remember 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 liable 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 operation 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 during operation and do not allow children to play with the washing machine – 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, destroy 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 the appliance will be out of operation for an extended period of time, unplug it from the mains. • 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 programs 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 filling door. • 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. 7 Instructions for use 2 Disposal Dispose the packing material! Dispose of your washing machine's packaging correctly. All the packaging materials used are harmless to the environment and can be recycled. • Plastic parts are marked with standard international abbreviations: >PE< for polyethylene, e.g. sheet wrapping material >PS< 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 average soiling. This saves detergent, water and time (and protects the environment). • When loaded to the capacities indicated the washing machine is especially 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 “Detergents and Conditioners”) you should use water softener. The detergent can then always be dosed as for hardness range I (= soft). 8 Instructions for use Unit Description Front View Drawer for washing detergent and care agent Control panel Rating plate (behind filling door) Filling door Screw feet (height-adjustable); rear left: Automatic adjustment foot Flap in front of solution pump Drawer for Washing Powder and Care Agent In-wash stain treatment Main detergent (powder) and water-softener if required Pre-wash detergent/ soaking agent or water-softener Liquid care agent (conditioner, finisher, starch) 9 Instructions for use Control Panel SPIN SPEED button with display Programme option buttons Programme progress display DOOR/LIGHT button Programme selector button DELAY TIMER button Multi-display START/PAUSE MOISTURE/LOADING display OVER DOSING indicator Programme Selector The programme selector defines the nature of the wash cycle (e.g. water level, drum movement, number of rinses, spin speed) to suit the type of washing, as well as the water temperature. OFF (UIT) Switches the washing machine off; the machine is switched on at all other positions. To correct programme settings that have been selected accidentally turn the programme selector to the OFF (UIT) position. The initial position is reinstated. 10 Instructions for use COTTONS/LINEN, EASY-CARES (WITTE/BONTE WAS, KREUKHERST.) Wash programme between 20 °C and 95 °C, may be used for all cotton and linen washing (cottons/linen), easy-cares (blended fabrics, e.g., cotton/polyester) and synthetics. The wash programme adjusts to suit the various types of fabric and quantities. If there is mostly cotton/linen a suitable cottons/linen programme is carried out; if there is more synthetic material a programme for easy-cares is selected. If the machine is loaded exclusively with easy-cares the quantity should not exceed 2.5 kg in order to avoid creasing. RINSE (SPOELEN) Separate rinsing, separate conditioning, separate soaking of damp washing (1 rinse, liquid conditioner is added from the compartment æ, spin). If a separate rinse is carried out do not put any conditioner into the compartment. PUMP OUT (POMPEN) The water is pumped away after a rinse hold (without spin). 3 Rinse hold means: the washing remains in the last rinsing water and is not spun. SPIN (CENTRIFUGEREN) The water is pumped out at the end of a rinse hold and spin, or hand washed cottons/linen and easy cares are spun separately. SHORT SPIN (KORT CENTRIFUGEREN) The water is pumped out at the end of a rinse hold and short spin, or delicate fabrics (delicates, woollens) are given a separate short spin at low revs. DELICATES (FIJNE WAS) Wash programme for delicates at 30 °C or 40 °C. WOOL / P Hand wash (WOL / P handwas) Wash programme (cold to 40 °C) for machine-washable woollens and for hand-washable woollen fabrics bearing the ï care symbol (hand wash). SILK / P Hand wash (ZIJDE / P handwas) Wash programme at 30 °C for hand and machine-washable silk. 3 As silk is a very sensitive fabric, we recommend that you only wash one item of clothing at a time, and that such items never be washed with other rough fabrics. A still more gentle wash is possible for extremely sensitive silk fabrics using the TIME SAVER (KORT/EXTRA KORT) button. 11 Instructions for use FASHION A particularly gentle special programme at 40 °C for modern fabrics such as viscose, modal, cupro, lyocell, with a gentler wash action than the DELICATES (FIJNE WAS) programme, but washing more thoroughly than the hand wash programmes. REFRESH (OPFRISSEN) A special programme lasting approx. 20 minutes at 30 °C to give fabrics a quick wash, such as, for example, very slightly soiled sports clothes that have been worn only once. EASY IRON (STRIJKVRIJ) Wash programme at 40 °C for easy-care fabrics that will only need to be ironed lightly, if at all, at the conclusion of the programme. 2 ENERGY SAVING (E-STAND) A wash programme at approx. 60 °C that is particularly economical on electricity and water for slightly to normally soiled cotton and linen washing (cottons/linen) with an extended washing time. Programme Option Buttons The programme option buttons are used to adapt the wash programme to suit the degree of soiling of the washing. For washing with a normal degree of soiling such programme options as PRE WASH (VOORWAS) and STAIN (VLEKKEN) are not necessary. The different functions can be combined with one another depending on the programme. PRE WASH (VOORWAS) (Pre wash/Soaking) Cold pre wash prior to the main wash cycle that follows automatically. Using the DELAY TIMER (STARTTIJDKEUZE) button pre wash can be changed to warm soaking. SENSITIVE (BEHOEDZAAM) Special programme option with significantly increased rinse action (additional rinse cycle) and at the same time increased gentleness to fabrics (reduced drum movement). Ideal if items have to be washed frequently such as when the wearer has sensitive skin. RINSE+ (SPOELEN+) may be selected in addition. 12 Instructions for use STAIN (VLEKKEN) For treating heavily soiled or stained washing. (In-wash stain treatment or tablets are washed in from the compartment at the optimal point in the programme cycle.) 3 When WOOL/P Hand wash (WOL/P handwas) has been set the programme options cannot be selected using the buttons. TIME SAVER (KORT/EXTRA KORT) Shortened wash programme for less soiled washing; may be selected in three stages for the COTTONS/LINEN, EASY-CARES (WITTE/BONTE WAS, KREUKHERST.) programme and in two stages for other programmes.

The washing type and quantity, the type of washing detergent, the water temperature and the room temperature etc. can influence the duration of the wash programme. What does “UPDATE” mean? The wash programmes in your washing machine are controlled by software. New types of fabric or new detergents may require new wash programmes 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 further 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. 15 Instructions for use Before the First Wash 0 Run a wash cycle without washing; COTTONS/LINEN, EASY-CARES (WITTE/BONTE WAS, KREUKHERST.) 95 programme with half the amount of washing detergent. This removes any residues from the drum and solution container which may have been left during manufacturing. Preparing a Wash Load Sorting and preparing a wash load 16 • 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 transfer 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 efficiency and the washing is more evenly distributed during the spin cycle. • 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”! Instructions for use Washing Types and Care Symbols The care symbols help you choose the correct wash programme. Washing should be sorted according to type and care symbol. The temperatures indicated in the care symbols are all maximum temperatures. Cottons ç Fabrics made from cotton and linen with this care symbol will withstand maximum wash actions and high temperatures. The COTTONS/ LINEN, EASY-CARES (WITTE/BONTE WAS, KREUKHERST.) programme is suitable for this type of washing. Linen è ë Fabrics made from cotton and linen which carry this care symbol will withstand maximum wash actions. The COTTONS/LINEN, EASY-CARES (WITTE/BONTE WAS, KREUKHERST.) programme is suitable for this type of washing. Easy-care washing ê í Fabrics such as treated cotton, cotton mixed fabrics and synthetics which carry this care symbol need a gentler wash action. The COTTONS/ LINEN, EASY-CARES (WITTE/BONTE WAS, KREUKHERST.) and EASY IRON (STRIJKVRIJ) programmes are available for this type of washing. Delicates ì Fabrics such as those with layered fibres, microfibres, synthetics and curtains with this care symbol require particularly careful handling. The DELICATES (FIJNE WAS) programme is appropriate for these types of washing. Viscose í ì Modern fabrics such as viscose, cupro, lyocell, modal and others require particularly careful handling. The FASHION programme is appropriate for these types of washing. Woollens, silk and particularly delicate wash items 9 ì ï Fabrics such as wool, wool mixtures and silk which carry these care symbols require a very gentle wash cycle. The WOOL/P Hand wash (WOL/P handwas) and SILK/P Hand wash (ZIJDE/P handwas) programmes are suitable for this type of fabric. Important! Fabrics which bear the care symbol ñ (Do not wash!) may not be machine washed! 17 Instructions for use Detergent and Conditioners Which detergent and conditioner? Use only detergents and conditioners which are suitable for use in automatic washing machines. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions. How much detergent and conditioner? The quantity required depends upon: • the extent to which the washing is soiled • the degree of hardness of the mains water • the amount of washing 2 Should the detergent manufacturer not specify the dosage quantity for less than full loads, reduce the detergent accordingly: for a half load reduce the quantity by one third; for a small load or EASY IRON (STRIJKVRIJ) reduce the quantity by one half of the quantity recommended for a full load. Observe the instructions for use and dosing provided by the detergent and conditioner manufacturer. Water Softener For medium to high water hardness (hardness category II or higher) you should use water softener. Pay attention to the manufacturer's instructions. Always then meter detergent for hardness category I (= soft). The responsible water works can provide information on the local water hardness. 2 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.

Setting up and connection instructions Prepare the Installation Location • The installation surface must be clean, dry and free of floor wax residue 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 flexible 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 installed and is therefore least likely to be susceptible to vibrations. 49 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. If the washing machine still does not stand firmly enough during spinning, proceed as follows: 0 1. 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 compensate for minor floor unevenness. Always use the adjustable screw-type feet of the machine. 3 50 Setting up and connection instructions Electrical Connection Refer to the rating plate for details of the mains voltage, current type and the necessary fuses. The rating plate is located at the top behind the filling door. ; This unit conforms to the following EU directives: – the ”Low Voltage Directive" 73/23/EU with changes – the ”EMC Directive" 89/336/EWG with changes Water Connection 3 The washing machine has safety features which prevent contamination of the drinking water and which conform to the legal regulations of the water authorities (e.g. for Germany: DVGW regulations). Other protection measures in the installation are therefore not necessary. Attention! – Units for connection to cold water must not be connected to hot water! – Use only new sets of hoses for connection! Permissible Water Pressure The water pressure must be at least 1bar (= 10N/cm2 = 0.1MPa), maximum 10bar (= 100N/cm2 = 1MPa). • In the case of more than 10bar: Connect a pressure-reducing valve upstream. • In the case of less than 1bar: Unscrew the intake hose on the unit side on the inlet solenoid valve and remove the flow regulator (to do this, remove the filter with pointed pliers and remove the rubber washer behind). Replace the filter. 51 Setting up 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. – Sets of hoses in lengths of 2.2m, 3.5m and 5m are available for washing machines without Aqua-Control. – Sets of hoses in lengths of 2.0m, 2.9m and 3.9m are available for washing machines with Aqua-Control. Attention! 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 enclosed pack. Do not use other seals! 0 1.

Look there first if a fault occurs. If you find no information there, please consult your Customer Service Centre. Always prepare in advance for the discussion. By doing so you will simplify 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 because 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. 59 From the Electrolux Group. The world´s No.1 choice.
