35.292.960…Lavamat 3100.qxd 06/05/2005 11:48 Página 42 Safety instructions The safety of AEG 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 following safety notes. General notes • Repairs to the machine must be carried out only by qualified personnel. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons could cause serious danger. Contact our Service Centre or your AEG dealer.
35.292.960…Lavamat 3100.qxd 06/05/2005 11:48 Página 43 Safety instructions Child safety • Children are often not aware of how dangerous electrical appliances can be. When the machine is working, they should be carefully supervised and not be allowed to play with the appliance - there is a risk that they could become trapped inside. • The packaging components (e.g. plastic film, polystyrene) can be dangerous to children - danger of suffocation! Keep them out of children’s reach.

35.292.960…Lavamat 3100.qxd 06/05/2005 11:48 Página 45 Tips for environmental protection • Lightly soiled laundry may be washed without prewashing in order to save detergent, water and time (the environment is protected too!). • The machine works more economically if it is fully loaded. • When small loads are washed, use only half to two thirds of the recommended amount of detergent.
35.292.960…Lavamat 3100.qxd 06/05/2005 11:48 Página 46 Main features of your washing machine • Temperature regulated by selector knob. • The speed of the final spin can be reduced both with cottons and with synthetics, delicates and woollens. • The stop with water in drum function can be selected for synthetics, delicates and woollens: the laundry is left immersed in the final rinse water to avoid the formation of creases.
