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.

●

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

●

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.

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.

●

The glass door becomes very hot during the washing cycle. Keep children away from the vicinity of the appliance whilst it is in operation.

Keep all packaging well away from children.

●

●

reach.

Use

●

Always unplug the appliance and turn off the water supply after use.

●

Do not overload the appliance. See relevant section in the instruction book.

●

Only wash fabrics which are designed to be machine washed. If in doubt, consult the care label on the clothes.

●

Before washing, ensure that all pockets are empty and buttons and zips are fastened. Avoid washing frayed or torn articles and treat stains such as paint, ink, rust, and grass before washing. Underwired bras must NOT be machine washed.

Garments which have been in contact with volatile petroleum products should not be machine washed. If volatile cleaning fluids are used, care should be taken to ensure that the fluid is removed from the garment before placing in the machine.

●

Wash small items such as socks, laces, washable belts etc in a washing bag or pillow case as it is possible for such items to slip down between the tub and the inner drum.

●

Only use the advised quantities of fabric softener. Damage to the fabric can ensue if you over-fill. Refer to the manufacturer’s recommendations of quantities.

●

As some duvets and eiderdowns should be washed in large commercial machines because of their bulk, please check with the manufacturer of the item before washing in a domestic machine.

●

Leave the porthole door slightly ajar between washes to preserve the door seal.

●

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 Service Force Centre. Always insist on genuine Zanussi spare parts.

Safety instructions Hints and tips Environmental information

Your New Washing Machine

Your new washing machine meets all modern requirements for effective treatment of laundry with low water, energy and detergent consumption.

●

Automatic cooling of the wash water to 60°C

before draining, with the 95°C programme. This reduces thermal shock to fabrics, helping to prevent creasing.

●

The special wool programme with its new delicate wash system treats your woollens with extreme care.

●

The ECO VALVE allows total use of detergent and reduces water consumption so saving energy.

Ecological hints

To save water and energy and help protect the environment, we recommend that you follow these hints:

●

Adjust the quantity of detergent according to the hardness of your water supply, the amount of laundry and the degree of soiling.

●

A programme without prewash is sufficient for normally soiled laundry.

●

The machine works more economically if it is fully loaded.

●

With adequate pre-treatment, stains and limited soiling can be removed; the laundry can then be washed at a lower temperature, so saving energy.

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 lock 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!

Important

Your machine is fitted with a balance control de vice, which ensures the machine is stable during the spin. If the wash load appears not to have been spun sufficiently at the end of the wash cycle, because it is not evenly distributed in the drum, the balance control device may have operated. It will therefore be necessary to redistribute the wash load manually and select a spin programme. For more detailed information see the section headed "Something Not Working".

Before the first wash, we recommend that you pour 2 litres of water into the main wash compartment of the detergent drawer in order to activate the ECO valve. Then run a cotton cycle at 60°C, without any laundry in the machine, to remove any manufacturing residue from the drum and tub. Pour 1/2 a measure of detergent into the dispenser drawer and start the machine.
