Important Safety Information

It is most important that this instruction book should be retained with the appliance for future reference. Should the appliance be sold or transferred to another owner, or should you move house and leave the appliance, always ensure that the book is supplied with the appliance in order that the new owner can get to know the functioning of the appliance and the relevant warnings.

These warnings have been provided in the interest of safety. You MUST read them carefully before installing or using the appliance.

Installation

This appliance is heavy. Care should be taken when moving it.

It is dangerous to alter the specifications or attempt to modify this product in any way.

Any electrical work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person.

Care must be taken to ensure that the appliance does not stand on the electrical supply cable.

If the machine is situated on a carpeted floor, please adjust the feet in order to allow air to circulate freely.

If the tumble dryer is placed on top of a washing machine, it is compulsory to use the stacking kit

(optional accessory).

This tumble dryer is designed to be vented through to the open air. It should have its own ventilation system which should not be joined with any other ventilation system connected to any other appliance.

Child Safety

This appliance is designed to be operated by adults.

Children should not be allowed to tamper with the controls or play with the product.

Pets and children have been known to climb into tumble dryers. Please check your drum before use.

Keep all packaging well away for children.

Use

Do not overload the appliance (see programme chart).

Clothes which are dripping wet should not be placed in the dryer.

As some bulky items such as duvets and eiderdowns should be dried in large commercial machines because of their bulk, check with the manufacturer of the item if it is suitable for drying in a domestic machine, even if the dry weight of the item is within the limit advised.

Please make sure that no gas lighters have accidentally been left in pockets of garments to be loaded into appliance.

Danger of explosion: Never tumble dry items that have been in contact with inflammable solvents

(petrol, methylated spirits, dry cleaning fluid and the like). As these substance are volatile, they could cause an explosion. Tumble dry only items washed with water.

In order to avoid danger of fires caused by excessive drying, do not use appliance to dry the following items:

Cushions, quilts and the like (these items accumulate heat).

Items containing rubber foam or materials similar to rubber foam.

Leave the door slightly ajar when the appliance is not being used. This will allow the seal to be preserved.

Clean fluff filters after using tumble dryer. To prevent fire risks, do not use the appliance if the fluff filters are damaged.

Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair the machine yourself. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or serious malfunctioning. Contact your local Zanussi Service

Centre. Always insist on genuine Zanussi spare parts.

Your New Tumble Dryer

This tumble dryer will give your wash that soft, relaxed feel whatever the weather.

Extremely high quality standards both during development and manufacturing guarantee a long service life for your appliance.

Maximum economy in the operation of your dryer is achieved through very frugal electricity consumption and short drying times.

Energy saving tips

To save energy we recommend that you follow these hints:

● Try to load the maximum capacity of the machine as small loads are uneconomical.

Always load well spun laundry. The higher the spin speed, the lower the electricity consumption and the shorter the drying times.

Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids creasing and saves energy.

Clean the filters regularly to avoid excessive drying times and high electricity consumption.

Ventilate the room well. The room temperature should not exceed +35°C during drying.

In the interest of the environment

Materials marked with the symbol are recyclable.

Check with your local Council or Environmental

Health Office to see if there are facilities in your area for re-cycling this appliance.

When the appliance is to be scrapped, cut off the power supply cable and make the door closing device unusable to prevent young children from being trapped inside.

Help to keep your country tidy - use authorised disposal sites for your old appliance.

How do we help to protect the environment? We use recycled paper!

This position on the programme selector dial can be used to freshen the laundry (e.g. to remove a persistent odour of moth-balls).

Load

It is often difficult to estimate the weight of items to be dried. We therefore recommend that you adopt the following guidelines:

cotton, linen: drum full but not too tightly packed;

synthetics: drum no more than half full;

delicate fabrics: drum no more than one third full.

700 to 1000 g

1000 to 1500 g

200 to 300 g

150 to 200 g

Always load well spun laundry. The higher the spin speed the lower the electricity consumption and the shorter the drying time.

DO NOT load dripping wet laundry into the dryer. Roll the article in a towel or spin to remove excess water.

Close poppers and zips and fasten any buttons.

Sort the laundry. Separate synthetics from cotton/linens, and dry separately.

Remove the laundry immediately after the programme has finished.

Use a fabric conditioning sheet to reduce static.

We recommend the sheet is pinned to an article of laundry (using a safety pin).

Mix the load i.e. large and small articles.

When drying large items such as sheets, we recommend you periodically stop the dryer to redistribute the load.

DO NOT use the tumble dryer to dry the following:

Articles contaminated with inflammable substances e.g. petrol, cleaning solvents, cooking oil, fats or hair lacquer.

Woollen and synthetic/wool mixtures unless the item is labelled as suitable for tumble drying.

Very delicate articles such as silk.

Very large and bulky items such as duvets or sleeping bags.

Maintenance and Cleaning

You must disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply, before you can carry out any cleaning or maintenance work.

If necessary the filters can be cleaned under running water using a brush. In this case, remove the filter in the door opening as per picture (it can be positioned with the tongue facing to the left or to the right).

External cleaning

Use only soap and water and then dry thoroughly.

Important: do not use methylated spirit, diluents or similar products.

Cleaning the filters

Your dryer will only function well if the filters are clean.

The filters collect all the fluff which accumulates during drying and they must therefore be cleaned at the end of each programme, before removing the laundry, with a damp cloth.

The filter in the inner door must be removed for cleaning.

Do not be alarmed by the amount of fluff. It is not due to excessive wear caused by the dryer. All fabric looses fluff when drying but it goes un-noticed in the air. In a tumble dryer it simply collects in the filter.

Unpacking

Warning !

Slide out the polythene bag containing the polystyrene block before using the appliance.

Once in its permanent operating position, check that the dryer is absolutely level with the aid of a spirit level. If it is not, raise or lower the two adjustable feet at the front of the machine until it is.

P1106

Positioning

It is recommended that, for your convenience, the machine is positioned close to your washing machine.

Whilst drying, the tumble dryer will expel a certain amount of warm, very moist air, and this should be removed from the room as quickly as possible to prevent condensation. In an extremely well ventilated room or close to an open window, this may occur naturally.

However, in general, it is better to carry the dryer's exhaust outside via the 100 mm diameter flexible hose supplied with the appliance; ending either temporarily at an open window, or permanently at a fixed ventilation grille, fitted to an exterior wall or window.

The tumble dryer must be installed in a clean place, where dirt does not build up.

Make sure there are no obstructing items or material near the air-intake louvres provided at the back (e.g.

paper, rags etc.).

To keep vibration and noise to a minimum when the dryer is in use, it should be placed on a firm, level surface.

P0046

The feet must never be removed.

Do not restrict the floor clearance through deeppile carpets, strips of wood or similar. This might cause heat build-up which would interfere with the operation of the appliance.

Important

For a correct functioning of the appliance, the room temperature must not be lower than +5°C and higher than +35°C.

Fitting the vent hose

To simplify the installation, there is a choice of vent outlets: one at the back, the others in the left and right-hand side.

Connect the hose to whichever is the more convenient by pulling the ring nut (A) from the vent outlet at the back, screwing it on to the hose and pushing it firmly back into place.

The unused vents should now be sealed with the special snap covers provided.

Advice: If the hose is long and the room temperature low, the moisture might condense to water inside the hose. This is an unavoidable natural phenomenon.

To prevent this water from lying in the hose or flowing back into the tumble dryer, it is advisable to drill a small hole (dia. 3 mm) in the lowest point of the hose and to place a small container below it.(See picture, point B).

Once connected to the dryer, run the vent hose to the desired outlet point, ensuring that the run’s overall length is less than 2 m, and that it contains no more than two bends. As to the outlet itself, if you have decided on a fixed wall/window grille, a good local builder’s merchant should be able to supply you with the necessary fittings and installation advice.

It is important not to connect the vent hose to, for example, a cooker hood, or a chimney or flue pipe designed to carry the exhaust from a fuel burning appliance.

In order to prevent the appliance from overheating, it is important that the steam exhaust is unobstructed.

Therefore, in case of a permanent hose fitted to an exterior wall or ceiling, it must be ensured an exhaust capacity of at least 150 m 3 /h.

If the dryer is fitted next to kitchen units, make sure that the vent hose is not squashed. If the hose is partially squashed, drying efficiency will be reduced, resulting in longer drying times and higher energy consumption.

If the hose is completely squashed, the safety cutouts with which the machine is fitted may operate.

Door reversal

To make it easier to load or unload the laundry the door can be reversed.

This operation must be carried out by qualified personnel.

Please contact the nearest Zanussi Service Centre.

Stacking kit

A special stacking kit is available through your dealer, to enable the mounting of the dryer on top of your washing machine.

Note that to avoid condensation problems, it is essential that the dryer be fitted with the flexible hose to carry its “exhaust” at least beyond the kitchen units; preferably outside the kitchen.
