The water of the last rinse of these programmes is not emptied out, to prevent the fabric from creasing. To drain the water and spin, select programme SHORT SPIN, to drain only, select PUMP OUT. Important: When the automatic NON-STOP washing plus drying programme is used for synthetics, the water of the last rinse is emptied out automatically and there is a short spin at 900 rpm before drying starts. 26 27 Cleaning and maintenance Cleaning and maintenance After each wash At the end of the wash programme, pull the dispenser drawer out a little to let it dry. Leave the door ajar to allow air to circulate. If the machine is not used for a prolonged period: Close the water tap and unplug the appliance. Drain filter The drain filter collects threads and small objects inadvertently left in the laundry. Check regularly that the filter is clean. Place a container under the filter and unscrew it; some water will come out of the filter. Clean the filter under a running tap, then refit it, screwing it fully in. Periodical cleaning Exterior Clean the outside of the cabinet with soap and water only. Important: do not use methylated spirits, solvents or similar products to clean the cabinet. Detergent dispenser drawer After a while, detergents and fabric softeners leave deposits in the drawer. Clean the drawer, from time to time, by rinsing it under a running tap. To remove the drawer from the machine, press the button in the rear left-hand corner. To facilitate cleaning, the top part of the additive compartment can be removed. Detergent can also accumulate inside the drawer recess: clean it with an old toothbrush. Refit the drawer after cleaning. Water inlet filters If you notice that the machine is taking longer to fill, check that the filters in the water inlet hoses are not blocked. Unscrew the hoses from the taps and remove the filters. Refit the filters and screw the hoses back onto the taps. 28 29 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 taps; · 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. Should it not be possible to have access to the drain hose because, for example the appliance is built in the kitchen furniture, slightly loosen the drain filter after placing a bowl on the floor to let the water come out slowly. At the end screw the filter again. 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. [. . . ] Longer drain hoses are available in lengths of 2. 7 and 4 metres from your AEG Service Force Centre. Max. 90 cm. (35. 4") Levelling Carefully level by screwing the adjustable feet in or out. Never place cardboard, wood or similar materials under the machine to compensate for any unevenness in the floor. Water inlet The inlets on the back of the appliance are colour coded, blue for cold and red for hot. Before connecting the hoses be sure to fit the mesh filters «A» supplied as per diagram. [. . . ]
