6) Set this programme to decrease the time and the consumption of energy and water. 7) Standard programmes for the Energy Label consumption values. According to regulation 1061/2010, these programmes are respectively the “standard 60° C cotton programme” and the “standard 40° C cotton programme”. They are the most efficient programmes in terms of combined energy and water consumption for washing normally soiled cotton laundry. Set this programme to have a good washing results and decrease the energy consumption. The time of the washing programme is extended. The washing temperature of the washing phase may differ from the temperature declared for the selected programme. 7. CONSUMPTION VALUES At programme start the display shows the duration programme for the max- imum load capacity. During the washing phase the programme duration is automatically calcula- ted and can greatly be reduced if the laundry load is lower than the maxi- mum load capacity (e.g. Cotton 60°C, maximum load capacity 7 kg, the pro- gramme duration exceeds 2 hours; real load 1 kg, the programme duration don’t reach 1 hour). When the appliance is calculating the real programme duration a dot blinks in the display. The data of this table are approximate. Different causes can change the da- ta: the quantity and type of laundry, the water and ambient temperature.

10. HINTS AND TIPS 10.1 The laundry load • Divide the laundry in: white, coloured, synthetics, delicates and wool. • Obey the washing instructions that are on the laundry care labels. • Do not wash together white and col- oured items. • Some coloured items can discolour with the first wash. We recommend that you wash them separately for the first times. • Button up pillowcases, close zippers, hooks and poppers. Tie up belts. • Empty the pockets and unfold the items. • Turn inside out multilayered fabrics, wool and items with painted illustra- tions. • Remove hard stains. • Wash with a special detergent heavy soil stains. • Be careful with the curtains. Remove the hooks or put the curtains in a washing bag or pillowcase. • Do not wash in the appliance : – Laundry without hems or with cuts – Underwired bras. – Use a washing bag to wash small items. • A very small load can cause balance problems with the spin phase. If this occurs, adjust manually the items in the tub and start the spin phase again. 10.2 Stubborn stains For some stains, water and detergent is not sufficient. We recommend that you remove these stains before you put the items in the appliance. Special stain removers are available. Use the special stain remover that is applica- ble to the type of stain and fabric. 10.3 Detergents and additives • Only use detergents and additives specially made for washing machines. • Do not mix different types of deter- gents. • To help the environment, do not use more than the correct quantity of de- tergent. • Obey the instructions that you find on the on packaging of these products. • Use the correct products for the type and colour of the fabric, the pro- gramme temperature and the level of soil. • If you use liquid detergents, do not set the prewash phase. • If your appliance has not the deter- gent dispenser with the flap device, add the liquid detergents with a dos- ing ball. 10.4 Water hardness If the water hardness in your area is high or moderate, we recommend that you use a water softener for washing ma- chines. In areas where the water hard- ness is soft it is not necessary to use a water softener. To know the water hardness in your area, contact your local water authority. Obey the instructions that you find on the packaging of the products. Equivalent scales measure the water hardness: • German degrees (°dH). • French degrees (°TH). • mmol/l (millimol for each litre - inter- national unit for the hardness of wa- ter). • Clarke degrees. 18www.aeg.com
