13. HINTS AND TIPS

WARNING!

Refer to Safety chapters.

13.1 The laundry load

• Divide the laundry in: white, coloured, synthetics, delicates and wool.

• Obey the washing instructions that are 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 times.

• Turn multilayered fabrics, wool and items with painted illustrations inside out.

• Remove hard stains with a special detergent.

• Wash and pre-treat heavy soil stains before putting items in drum

• Be careful with the curtains. Remove the hooks and put the curtains in a washing bag or pillowcase.

• 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. ).

• A very small load can cause balance problems with the spin phase leading to excessive vibration. If this occurs:

- interrupt the programme and open the door (refer to "Daily Use" chapter);

-manually redistribute the load so that the items are spaced evenly around the tub;

-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.

• Empty the pockets and unfold the items.

13.2 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.

13.3 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 for all types of fabric, excluding delicate. Prefer powder detergents containing bleach for whites and laundry sanitization,

– liquid 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 ( ).

24 www.aeg.com

• Do not mix different types of detergents.

• Use less detergent if:

– 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.

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.

13.4 Ecological hints

To save water, energy and to help protect the environment, we recommend that you follow these tips:

• Loading the appliance to the maximum capacity indicated for each programmes helps to reduce

energy and water consumption.

14. CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING!

Refer to Safety chapters.

14.1 Periodic cleaning schedule

Periodic cleaning helps to extend the 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

• 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 washing programme before drying your

laundry in a tumble dryer. This will save energy during drying!

13.5 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.

Maintenance wash Once a month

Clean door seal Every two months

Clean drum

Clean detergent dis‐ penser

Every two months

Every two months

Clean the inlet hose and the valve filter

Twice a year

The following paragraphs explain how you should clean each part.

14.2 Removing foreign objects

Make sure that pockets are empty and all loose elements are tied up before running your cycle. Refer to

'The laundry load' in 'Hints and tips'.

14.3 External cleaning

Clean the appliance with mild soap and warm water only. Fully dry all the surfaces. Do not use a scouring pads or any scratching material.

CAUTION!

Do not use alcohol, solvents or chemical products.

CAUTION!

Do not clean the metal surfaces with chlorine-based detergent.

14.4 Descaling

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.

Regular detergents already contain water softening agents, but we recommend to run a cycle with an empty drum and a descaling product occasionally.

Always follow the instructions that you find on the packaging of the product.

14.5 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 clean the inner part of the appliance, run

ENGLISH a maintenance wash regularly (at least once a month).

Refer to "Cleaning the drum" paragraph.

25

14.6 Door seal with double lip trap

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.

14.7 Cleaning the drum

Regularly examine the drum to prevent 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.

Always follow the 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 wool.

For a thorough clean:

1. Remove all laundry from the drum.

26 www.aeg.com

2. Run the Machine Clean programme. For more details, refer to washing programme table.

3. Add a small quantity of powder detergent into the empty drum, in order to rinse out any left residues.

Occasionally, at the end of a cycle the display may show the icon : this is a recommendation to perform the “drum cleaning”. Once the drum cleaning has been performed, the icon disappears.

14.8 Cleaning the detergent dispenser

To prevent possible deposits of dried detergent or clotted fabric softener and/or formation of mould in the detergent dispenser drawer, once in a while carry out the following cleaning procedure:

1. Open the drawer. Press the catch downwards as indicated in the picture and pull it out.

3. Make sure that all detergent residue is removed from the upper and lower part of the recess. Use a small brush to clean the recess.

4. Insert the detergent drawer into the guide rails and close it. Run the rinsing programme without any clothes in the drum.

2. Remove the top part of the additive compartment to aid cleaning and flush it out under running warm water, to remove any traces of accumulated detergent. After cleaning, put the top part back into position.

14.9 Cleaning the drain pump

Regularly check the drain pump filter and make sure that it is clean.

Clean the drain pump if:

• The appliance does not drain the water.

ENGLISH 27

• The drum does not turn.

• The appliance makes an unusual noise because of the blockage of the drain pump.

• The display shows the alarm code

WARNING!
