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 fol-
lowing safety notes.
General safety
• Repairs to the machine must be carried out only by qualified person-
nel. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons could cause serious
danger. Contact your local AEG/ELECTROLUX Service Force Centre.
• Never start the machine if the electrical supply cable is damaged or
the control panel or worktop are so damaged that inner components
can be reached.
• Unplug the appliance before carrying out any cleaning or mainte-
nance operations.
• Never pull the power supply cable to remove the plug from the sock-
et; always take hold of the plug itself.
• Never spray the machine with a jet of water. Danger of electric shock!
• During high temperature wash programmes and during the drying
cycle the door glass may get hot. Do not touch it!
• Let the water cool down before carrying out emergency emptying or
before opening the door in an emergency.
• Small animals can gnaw electric wires and water hoses causing elec-
trocution hazard and damage due to water leaks.
Positioning, connection, starting up
• Follow the instructions for positioning and connection.
• Carry out a first wash without laundry (COTTONS 60, with half the
amount of detergent) in order to remove any manufacturing residue
from the tub and the drum.
• Should the machine be purchased in winter, when temperatures can
be below 0°, leave the appliance for 24 hours at ambient temperature
before starting it.
• Your appliance is provided of a new «antiflood device». To make
active this feature is needed close the bottom of the machine with
the bottom cover that you can find inside the drum. Please read the
instructions inserted into bottom cover bag.
