AEG LAVAMAT 16950A3 - Manual (Page 17)

CAUTION!
Do not use a dosing device/ball when carrying out a washing and drying pro-
gramme.
1. Load the laundry.
2. Add detergent and fabric softener.
3. Switch the machine on: turn the selector dial to the required washing programme/fab-
ric.
4. Press the relevant buttons to set the required options.
If possible, do not set a spin speed lower than that proposed by the appliance to avoid too
long a drying time therefore saving energy.
In any case the lowest values you can select are 900 r.p.m. for cottons and synthetics
and 700 r.p.m. for delicate fabrics. The reduction of the spin speed is only possible after
selecting drying.
5. Press the button 4 to set the drying time. The display shows the entire duration of the
washing and the set drying cycle.
Note!
If you set a washing programme and only 10 minutes of drying cycle by pressing the
button 4, the total duration displayed includes also the unrolling and the cooling
phase.
6. Press the button 7 to start the programme. After the programme has started, the time
remaining is updated every minute.
7. At the end of the programme, follow the indications given in the previous chapter.
Then, turn the selector to the O position to switch the machine off.
8. Remove the laundry.
Fluff in the garments
During the WASHING AND/OR DRYING PHASE, certain types of fabric, as sponge-cloth,
sweatshirt, could release fluff.
The released fluff could stick to the fabrics during the next cycle.
This drawback increases with technical fabrics.
To prevent the lint in your clothes, it is recommended:
• To do not wash dark fabrics after you washed and dried light colored fabrics (new
sponge, sweatshirt especially) and vice versa.
• To air-dry this type of fabrics when they are washed the first time.
• To clean the filter.
• Perform one or more rinse cycles to wash the drum between the washing and drying of
fabrics with different colors.
• After the drying phase, thoroughly clean the empty drum, the gasket and the door with a
wet rag.
