Your New Tumble Dryer
i
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
In the interest
To save energy we recommend that you follow these
hints:

I
Try to load the maximum capacity of the machine
as small loads are uneconomical.
I
I
Check with your local Council or Environmental
Health Office to see if there are facilities in your
area for re-cycling this appliance.
I
Always load well spun laundry. The higher the
spin speed, the lower the electricity consumption
and the shorter the drying times.
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.
I
I
I
Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids creasing and
saves energy.
Clean the filter regularly to avoid excessive
drying times and high electricity consumption.
I
Help to keep your country tidy - use authorised
disposal sites for your old appliance.
Ventilate the room well. The room temperature
should not exceed +35°C during drying.
How do we help to protect the
environment? We use recycled paper!

Hints & Tips on Drying
I
Before placing articles of laundry in your tumble
dryer, check the care labels to ensure they are
recommended for tumble drying.
Always load well spun laundry. The higher the
spin speed the lower the electricity consumption
and the shorter the drying time.
I
DO NOT load dripping wet laundry into the
dryer. Roll the article in a towel or spin to remove
excess water.
Care Labels you may find on your laundry
normal drying (high temperature)
delicate drying (low temperature)
do not tumble dry
I
I
Close poppers and zips and fasten any buttons.
Sort the laundry. Separate synthetics from
cotton/linens, and dry separately.
I
I
Remove the laundry immediately after the
programme has finished.
may be tumble dried
Use a fabric conditioning sheet to reduce static.
We recommend the sheet is pinned to an article of
laundry (using a safety pin).
Do not overload the appliance.
Here is a list of the approximate weight of some
common laundry items.
I
I
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.
Sheet
700 to 1000 g

Maintenance and Cleaning
You must disconnect the appliance from the
electricity supply, before you can carry out any
cleaning or maintenance work.
Cleaning the condenser unit
Clean the air condenser periodically, 3 or 4 times a
year depending on how frequently the dryer is used.
Pull out the condenser, holding it at the top, and
remove all fluff. Clean it with a brush and rinse it
under the shower if necessary.
External cleaning
Use only soap and water and then dry thoroughly.
From time to time, apply a little wax furniture cream
with a soft cloth.
Important: do not use methylated spirit, diluents or
similar products.
Cleaning the filter
The tumble dryer cannot operate efficiently with a
clogged filter. The filter collects all the fluff which
forms during drying and it is therefore essential to
remove and clean this filter after each drying
programme.
P0636
P0639
Also clean the outside, removing all fluff.
Clean the rubber seal round the porthole door and the
seal of the condenser in the inner door with a damp
cloth.
Emptying the water reservoir
Water extracted from the laundry condenses inside
the machine and is collected in a reservoir.
The reservoir must be emptied after each drying
cycle to ensure efficient operation when the machine
is next used.
P1026
If this is not done a safety device trips: pilot light
on the control panel comes on and the programme
stops, leaving the laundry damp.
You should not be alarmed by the amount of fluff
which collects on the filter; this is due to normal
wearing of the fabrics dried and not to incorrect
operation of your machine. Rubbing of the fibres
during normal wear and washing forms fluff. If
laundry is dried on a line, this fluff simply flies away,
whereas inside the tumble dryer it collects together
and swells considerably as a result of the drying
action.
The reservoir can be emptied even in the middle of a
programme. After inserting the reservoir depress
START button to re-start the programme.
C0031
P0827
The reservoir must be re-inserted correctly.
Handy tip: The condensed water may be used in a
steam iron or to top up a battery, etc. In this case it
must be filtered (e.g. through a coffee filter).
11
Something Not Working

- 89/336 EEC of 3.5.89 (Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive) and subsequent modifications.
16
Positioning
It is recommended that, for your convenience, the
dryer is positioned close to your washing machine.
Stacking kit
A special stacking kit is available through your
dealer, to enable the mounting of the dryer on top of
your washing machine.
The tumble dryer must be installed in a clean place,
where dirt does not build up.
Air must be able to circulate freely all round the
appliance. Do not obstruct the front ventilation grille
or the air intake grilles in the back of the machine.
To keep vibration and noise to a minimum when the
dryer is in use, it should be placed on a firm, level
surface.
P1044
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 four adjustable
feet until it is.
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.
P0046
The feet must never be removed.
Do not restrict the floor clearance through deep-
pile carpets, strips of wood or similar. This might
cause heat build-up which would interfere with
the operation of the appliance.
Important
When operating the tumble dryer, the room
temperature must not exceed 35°C, as it may affect
the performance of the appliance.
17
