INSTRUCTION BOOKLET

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.

All packing and transit bolts must be removed before use. Serious damage can occur to the product and to property if this is not adhered to. See relevant section in instructions.

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.

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

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 for children.

Keep all detergents in a safe place out of children’s 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.

Any objects such as coins, safety pins, nails, screws, stones or any other hard, sharp material can cause extensive damage and must not be placed into the machine.

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

i Your New Washing Machine

Your new washing machine, fitted with the Zanussi “JET SYSTEM”, meets all modern requirements for effective treatment of laundry with low water, energy and detergent consumption.

Even small loads are washed “economically” because the amount of water used is regulated automatically according to the load and type of fabric.

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.

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.

Select a “quick” programme for lightly soiled laundry.

A programme without prewash is sufficient for normally soiled laundry.

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 device, 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”.

1 Spin speed selector dial

The spin speed can be varied as follows:

Cotton & linen: from 1250 (max) to 500 (min) rpm for model FJS 1397 W, from 1050 (max) to 300 (min) rpm for model FJS 1197 W and from 1450 (max) to 700 (min) rpm for model FJS 1597 W.

Mixed fabrics and delicates: from 650 (max) to 300 (min) rpm.

Wool: from 1000 (max) to 300 (min) rpm.

NOTE: The spin speeds marked on the dial refer to spin speeds for cotton and linen programmes. To select 650 rpm for mixed fabrics and delicates and 1000 rpm for wool, the spin speed selector dial should be positioned to the max. setting (1250, 1050 or 1450, depending on the model).

To select 300 rpm it should be positioned to the min. setting (500, 300 or 700).

2 Heavy soil button

By pressing the heavy soil button, the machine will take in cold water only on programmes with a water temperature of 50°-60°-95°C (programmes B-C and J). These would normally be hot and cold.

The water is then gradually heated to the required temperature. The effect is to improve the overall wash performance, particularly on biological stains such as egg, blood and grass stains, and heavily soiled fabrics, since the longer «cool-soak» phase as the water heats up provides the right conditions for the powder and the water temperature to interact, and achieve the best possible results.

3 Quick wash button

By depressing this button on programmes B, C, D and J the wash time is reduced.

This is suitable only for garments which are lightly soiled.

4 Rinse Hold Plus button

Press this button to make the machine stop with water in the drum after the cotton, synthetic or delicate wash cycles.

This prevents any creasing which may occur if the clothes are left damp in the drum. When it is convenient for you to empty the machine, simply press this button again so that the machine can proceed to drain and spin, or turn the dial to the drain programme “ R”.

If this button is not activated, the washing programmes will end with a spin.

Do not press this button for woollens: wool items should be gently spun.

5 On/Off button

By depressing this button the machine starts operating. When depressed again, the machine stops.

6 Mains-on light

This light illuminates when the machine starts working and goes out when the ON/OFF button is released.

7 Programme selector dial

Push the dial to pop it out.

Turn the dial clockwise to select the required wash programme.

Before setting the dial to any position the machine must be switched off by depressing the ON/OFF button again.
