Safety instructions for the user
The safety of AEG electrical appliances is in conformity with recognized technical standards and current legislation. Nevertheless, we feel obliged to point out to you and other possible users the following : - Ensure before switching on the machine that the nominal voltage and current type indicated on the manufacturer's plate correspond with the voltage and current type where the machine is to be used. The necessary fuse protection should also be read off the rating plate. - If your ÖKO-LAVAMAT is in a room subject to temperatures below freezing, the water must be removed from the machine should the danger of freezing be expected. [. . . ] Whenever possible, wash with a full load as this ensures maximum efficiency. This has a negative result on the washing results. With synthetics articles particularly prone to creasing, you should reduce the load. Opening the washing machine To open the drum, press the button on the drum lid, press the drum lid down and open slowly. Load the washing and then close the drum and washing machine lids. Caution: before closing the appliance lid check that the drum lid is properly closed. As far as possible, mix large and small articles in the wash. This improves washing efficiency and makes for more efficient distribution of the wash during spin drying. Do not load folded washing.

Soiling is differentiated according to : Dirt, e. g. Check that the drum is completely empty, as otherwise articles could be damaged in the next wash cycle (e. g. shrinking) or could colour other articles.
