It looks very simple, and maybe a mechanical timer? I can't read the model number, maybe someone here may be familiar with this model.
Any information would be helpful! Should I get it?? I do miss my old Miele's 95 degree washes! Guy CLICK HERE TO GO TO bellalaundry's LINK

What you've got hold of there is an AEG Lavamat 80
Who loves ya baby?
www.manualslib.com/produc... es.wallapop.com/item/lavadora-ae... In common with offerings by Asko and others in same time period this washer maybe a quasi mechanical timer with electronics with range of preset cycles (dial on left) with only temperature being other selectable option (dial on right). Two buttons are for final spin (400 or 800 rpm) and "Rinse Hold". Cycle/programmer dial acts as a program indicator by moving about during wash. Most machines of this design had various lock-outs built into programming. That is you cannot get temps above a certain degree for some cycles. You cannot "boil wash" wool or certain other delicate cycles for instance. This is a safety feature to keep someone from doing so accidently or on purpose. These older AEG washers are built like tanks and predate company being sold off to current owner (Electrolux). Interesting thing about this washer is one has two rinse options; full on series of rinses for items that were washed by hand for instance, but also just "softener rinse" which is only the final where fabric conditioner is dispensed. Afterwards either way machine will go to final spin unless "Rinse Hold" is activated.

Near as one can see thus far W 80 and W 88 are same machines, but one may have been marketed for sale in countries with 60hz frequency instead of 50hz.
Given machine you've found has that energy savings sticker printed in English plastered on dispenser drawer it's a good bet that washer was meant to be sold in Canada/North America. This as you know (and one found out as well) is a good thing as AEG washers don't or won't operate when out of bounds frequency is detected. | ||

There was an entire range of W80 washers from AEG; W 80, 88, 86
To make things even more interesting AEG also had W 70 which seems to be same machine... preview.u-manual.com/preview-man... es.wallapop.com/item/lavadora-ae... As for age of unit you can tell from serial number. The first number indicates the year of manufacture, and the second and third digits indicate the production week. AEG was sold to Electrolux in 1994 and last washers made in Germany were 1997. Electrolux appliances including AEG washers and dryers have a PNC code on data plate as well. That number plugged into Electrolux/AEG website will give list of responses including availability of parts. I would ask seller for this information or see if he/she will send a picture of data plate. www.firstchoice-cs.co.uk/.... Sadly as wont to happen Electrolux has been killing off or ridding itself of parts, information and other bits regarding older AEG appliances. Things that predate their purchase by a decade or more. There is still plenty of information out there via various European and other websites if one knows what one is looking for however. www.aeg.co.uk/faq/... Near as one can figure out production of Lavamat W80 series began in January of 1997. kremplshop.de/geraet/aeg-lavw80-... There are several PNC codes associated with this W 80 washer. You can see what Electrolux has available in terms of spares here: shop.electrolux.co.uk/model/m/LA... Or here: shop.aeg.co.uk/searchQUESTIONMAR... From either of above links you can also find diagrams, part lists, service bulletins, etc.. As you can see Electrolux doesn't seem to offer much in way of spares, but other places including my go to source in Germany have bit more. kremplshop.de/geraet/aeg-lavw80-...

This is slightly older and one of the last real Aeg machines. Unfortunately mine has a problem with the electromechanical timer and it is no longer available.
