8.2 Woolmark Wool Care Blue
· The wool wash cycle of this machine has been approved by The Woolmark Company for the washing of wool garments labelled as “hand wash” provided that the products are washed according to the instructions on the garment label and those issued by the manufacturer of this washing machine. M2103.
· The wool drying cycle of this machine has been tested and approved by The Woolmark Company. The cycle is suitable to dry wool garments which are labelled “hand wash” provided that the garments are washed in a Woolmark endorsed hand washing cycle and dried according to the instructions issued by the manufacturer. M2104 .
The Woolmark symbol is a Certification mark in many countries.
8.3 Steam programmes
The Steam programmes can be used for reducing wrinkles and odours on garments (such as cottons, synthetics, mixed fabrics, including delicates) that just need to be refreshed, in a short time, avoiding washing. The fabric fibres are relaxed and afterwards ironing becomes effortless. When the cycle is completed, quickly remove the laundry from the drum. The cycle duration can be reduced till 15 minutes by means of the Time Save option.

DO NOT set this mode with the following type of items: · Items that are not suitable for tumble
drying. · Items with label “Dry clean only”.
Do not use any detergent! The Steam programmes do not remove particularly intense odour and do not perform any hygienic cycle. After the steam treatment the laundry can be humid. Hang items out for a few minutes.
The fragrance (AEG Steam Fragrance)
The AEG Steam Fragrance allows you to refresh even your delicate clothes, removing wrinkles and adding freshness with a gentle fragrance developed exclusively by AEG. By refreshing your garments with steam, rather than running full wash cycles, you will keep your clothes looking and feeling new longer. You can even safely use the fragrance with Cashmere and Steam programmes if they are available – for delicate fabrics like cashmere and wool. When treating smaller load reduce the fragrance dosage and the cycle duration: in only fifteen minutes, your clothes will regain that “just washed” feeling.
Read carefully the instructions supplied with the fragrance.
DO NOT: · Tumble dry the garments treated with
fragrance. Its benefit would evaporate. · Use the fragrance with different purposes than those here described. · Use the fragrance on new garments. New garments may contain residual finishing compounds which are not compatible with it.
The fragrance is available on AEG web shop or by authorised dealer.

14. FLUFF IN THE FABRICS
During the washing and/or drying phase, some types of fabric, (sponge, wool, sweatshirt) could release fluff.
The released fluff could stick to the fabrics during the next cycle.
This inconvenient increases with technical fabrics.
To prevent the fluff in your laundry:
· Do not wash dark fabrics after you washed and dried light coloured fabrics (hand towel, wool, sweatshirt ) and the contrary.
· Dry this type of fabrics at open air when they are washed the first time.
· Clean the drain filter. · After the drying phase, clean the
empty drum, the gasket and the door with a wet cloth.
15. HINTS AND TIPS
WARNING! Refer to Safety chapters.
15.1 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.

ENGLISH 35
2. Make sure that the drum is empty. After drying phase, clean the drum, the seal and the inside of the door with a wet cloth.
To remove the fluff inside the drum, proceed as follows: · Empty the drum. · Clean the drum, the gasket and the
door with a wet cloth. · Set the rinse programme. · Simultaneously press the Spin and
the Time Save buttons until the display shows CLE to activate the cleaning function. · Touch the Start/Pause button to start the programme.
If the appliance is frequently used, carry out the CLE programme regularly.
· 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.

36 www.aeg.com
· 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.
15.2 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.
15.3 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 (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.

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

ENGLISH 37

· 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’.
