14. HINTS AND TIPS

WARNING!

Refer to Safety chapters.

14.1 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.

• 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.

14.2 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.

14.3 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:

ENGLISH 29

• 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:

– 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.

14.4 Ecological hints

To save water, energy and to help

protect the environment, we recommend

that you follow these tips:

•Normally soiled laundry may be

washed without prewash in order to

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!

14.5 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.

14.6 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.

www.aeg.com30

• Anoraks.

• Sleeping bags.

• Fabrics with residue of hair sprays,

nail solvents or similar.

• Garments with foam-rubber or

materials similar to foam-rubber.

14.8 Garment labels

When you dry the laundry, obey the

indications on the labels of the

manufacturers:

• = The item can be tumble dried

• = The drying cycle is at high

temperature

• = The drying cycle is at reduced

temperature

• = The item can not be tumble

dried.

14.9 Drying cycle duration

The drying time can change depending

on:

• speed of the last spin

• dryness level

• type of laundry

• weight of the load

14.10 Additional drying

If, at the end of the drying programme,

the laundry is still damp, set a short

drying cycle again.

WARNING!

To avoid creasing and

shrinkage do not overdry

the laundry.

14.11 General Tips

Refer to the «Drying programmes» table

to find the average drying times.

Experience will help you to dry the

laundry better. Take note of the duration

of the cycles done before.

To avoid the static charge at the end of

the drying cycle:

1. Use fabric conditioner in the washing

cycle.

2. Use special fabric conditioner for

tumble dryers.
