132983190.qxd 07/10/2005 10.03 Pagina 6 Safety instructions The safety of AEG/ELECTROLUX appliances complies with the industry standards and with legal requirements on the safety of appliances. However, as manufacturers, we feel it is our duty to provide the following safety notes. General safety • Repairs to the machine must be carried out only by qualified personnel. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons could cause serious danger. Contact your local AEG/ELECTROLUX Service Force Centre.
132983190.qxd 07/10/2005 10.03 Pagina 7 Safety instructions Child safety • Children are often not aware of how dangerous electrical appliances can be. When the machine is working, children should be carefully supervised 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 dangerous to children - danger of suffocation! Keep them out of children’s reach.

132983190.qxd 07/10/2005 10.03 Pagina 36 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 out.
132983190.qxd 07/10/2005 10.03 Pagina 37 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.
132983190.qxd 07/10/2005 10.03 Pagina 38 Something not working? Problem Possible cause Solution The water tap is closed (E10). Open the water tap. The water inlet hose is squashed or kinked (E10). The machine does not fill The machine fills then empties immediately Check the whole length of the hose and remove the kink. The small filter of the water Clean the filter. inlet hose is clogged (E10). The door is not properly closed (E40). Close the door. The end of the drain hose is too low.
132983190.qxd 07/10/2005 10.03 Pagina 39 Something not working? Problem The machine vibrates or is noisy The door will not open Possible cause Solution The transit bolts have not been removed. Check that the machine has been unpacked as described in the Installation section. The feet have not been adjusted. Carefully level the machine. There is little laundry in the drum. Correct operation of the machine is not affected. The programme is still running.
132983190.qxd 07/10/2005 10.03 Pagina 40 Something not working? Problem Possible cause Solution The unbalance detection device that prevents excessive vibration during spinning has cut in. If the laundry is not evenly distributed inside the drum at the beginning of the spin cycle, the machine detects this and tries to redistribute it more evenly by means of a few drum rotations.
132983190.qxd 07/10/2005 10.03 Pagina 41 Something not working? 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 has 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.

132983190.qxd 07/10/2005 10.03 Pagina 46 Installation Unpacking All transit bolts and packing must be removed before using the appliance. Using the supplied 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. P025 Remove the polystyrene base and take off the bottom panel by unscrewing the central screw.
132983190.qxd 07/10/2005 10.03 Pagina 47 Installation 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 supplied with the instruction booklet. You are advised to keep all transit devices so that they can be refitted if the machine ever has to be transported again. Positioning Install the machine on a flat hard floor.
132983190.qxd 07/10/2005 10.03 Pagina 48 Installation Water inlet Connect the water inlet hose to a tap with a 3/4" thread. 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 specially designed for this type of use.
132983190.qxd 07/10/2005 10.03 Pagina 49 Installation 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 does not accept any responsibility for damage or injury through failure to comply with the above safety precaution.
