Important safety information

Installation

• 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.

Use

• This appliance is designed for domestic use only. If

the machine is used for any other purposes or is

not used correctly, the manufacturer accepts no

responsibility for any damage that might occur.

• Always unplug the appliance after use.

• Clothes which are dripping wet should not be

placed in the dryer.

•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 substances are volatile, they

could cause an explosion. Tumble dry only items

washed with water.

• Please make sure that no gas lighters have

accidentally been left in pockets of garments to be

loaded into appliance.

• Do not dry canvas shoes or sports shoes, as they

could get stuck between the door and the drum,

thus blocking this latter.

• Leave the door slightly ajar when the appliance is

not being used. This will allow the seal to be

preserved.

• Clean fluff filter after using tumble dryer. To prevent

fire risks, do not use the appliance if the fluff filter is

damaged or without filter.

General safety

• It is dangerous to alter the specifications or attempt

to modify this product in any way.

• 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.

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

using the appliance.

ENGLISH

Child safety

• Children are often not aware of how dangerous

electrical appliances can be. When the machine is

working, children should be carefully supervised

and not be allowed to play with the appliance.

• The packaging components (e.g. plastic film,

polystyrene) can be dangerous to children - danger

of suffocation! Keep them out of children’s reach.

• Make sure that children or pets do not climb into

the drum.

• When the appliance is to be scrapped, cut off the

electrical supply cable and destroy the plug with

the remaining cable. Disable the door catch in

order to prevent children from becoming trapped

inside while playing.

To save energy and to help protect the environment,

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.

Select the drying programme according to the type

of laundry and the required degree of dryness.

• To utilize the maximum load, laundry which is to be

dried ready to put away (store dry) can be dried

together with items to be ironed. To do this, select

the programme for iron-dry, remove the iron-dry

items at the end of the programme and then finish-

dry the rest of the load.

• Clean the filter and condenser unit regularly to

avoid excessive drying times and high electricity

consumption.

• Ventilate the room well. The room temperature

should not exceed +35°C during drying.

Tips for environmental protection

• Packaging materials

The materials marked with the symbol are

recyclable.

This means that they can be recycled by disposing of

them properly in appropriate collection containers.

• Machine

Use authorised disposal sites for your old appliance.

Help to keep your country tidy!

Installation

Positioning

It is recommended that, for your convenience, the

machine is positioned close to 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 at 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.

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 feet until it is.

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

The hot air emitted by the tumble dryer can reach

temperatures of up to 60°C. The appliance must

therefore not be installed on floors which are not

resistant to high temperatures.

When operating the tumble dryer, the room

temperature must not exceed 35°C, as it may affect

the performance of the appliance.

Electrical connection

This machine is designed to operate on a 220-230 V,

single-phase, 50 Hz supply.

Check that your domestic electrical installation can

take the maximum load required (2.2 kW), also

taking into account any other appliances in use.

Connect the machine to an earthed socket, in

accordance with current wiring regulations.

The manufacturer declines any

responsibility for damage or injury through

failure to comply with the above safety

precaution.

Stacking kit

A special stacking kit is available through your

dealer, to enable the mounting of the dryer on top of

your washing machine.

Connecting a drain hose

If there is a sink or drain near the appliance, the

condensed water can be discharged directly through

a hose that is available on the market.

In order to connect the hose to the appliance

proceed as follows:

• Remove the clamp (A);

• Pull out the plug (B);

• Insert the drain hose (C);

• Fasten the hose (C) to the appliance using the

clamp (A).

If the appliance is stacked on the washing machine,

the condensed water can be discharged through the

hose as shown in figure, but take into account that

the hose must be pointed downwards.

Store dry

The laundry must be suitably spun in your washing machine before being placed in the tumble dryer (800 rpm

minimum). If the washing machine spins at a lower speed than 800 rpm, it is advisable to buy a spin-dryer.

Drying times are given as a guide only and vary according to the size of the load, the type of laundry, the degree

of spinning prior to drying.

Start by selecting a short drying time. If necessary, perform an additional drying cycle afterwards.

Experience will soon enable you to estimate the drying time needed for your usual laundry loads. It is advisable

to take note of them.

Size of load

It is not necessary to weigh the laundry, if these instructions are followed:

■Cottons, linen: full drum, but not overloaded.

■Synthetics: half drum.

■Particularly delicate fabrics: do not fill the drum more than 1/3.

For a mixed load (cotton and synthetics, for example) select the drying time suitable for the most delicate fabrics

and then increase it by approx 10 mins.

Operating sequence

Before using your tumble dryer for the first time, we

recommend to place a few damp cloths inside the

appliance and dry for about 20 minutes.

There may be dust inside a brand new tumble dryer.

1. Connect the appliance.

2. Open the door by pressing the relevant button.

3. Load the items one at a time, shaking them out

loosely.

4. Close the door. Please check the laundry does

not get caught between the door and filter.

5. Select the desired drying time (in high or low

temperature section, depending on the laundry).

6. In case, press button .

7. Press button : the programme starts.

When the position on the dial is reached, the

heating is automatically cut off and the laundry is

cooled.

After around 10 minutes, the programme is over.

Important: It is not advisable to open the door during

operation to check the degree of dryness. As the

laundry is warm, when touched it gives the

impression of still being damp, even if it is dry. Open

the door after the programme has finished.

If the programme has to be interrupted, it is

advisable to perform the cooling phase to prevent

the heat from building up inside the machine.

After drying

■Switch off the appliance.

■Clean the filter and empty water container (see

page 12).
