i Your New Washing Machine
Your new washing machine meets all modern needs 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, prevents distortion of plastic pipes in the domestic water system due to the high temperature of the water.
■The special wool programme with its new delicate wash system treats your woollen with extreme gentleness.
■The anti-unbalance device ensures that the washing machine remains stable when spinning.
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!

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.
Istallation
■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.

2Half load button 
Select this button to reduce water consumption on the rinse cycle when washing a smaller load of cottons or linens (maximum load size = 2.25 kg).
The machine will perform 3 rinses instead of 4.
3 RINSE HOLD button 
Press this button to make the machine stop with water in the drum after the synthetic or delicate wash cycles. This prevents any creasing which may take place 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 short spin, or turn the dial to the drain programme “ R”.
If this button is not activated, the washing programmes will end with a short spin.
Do not press this button for woollens: wool items should be gently spun.
4 Spin Speed Reduction button 
By depressing this button the spin speed will be reduced as follows:
-cotton and linen: from 1000 to 500 rpm
-synthetics, delicates and wool: from 600 to 400 rpm.
5 Extra Rinse button 
By depressing this button the machine will perform the rinses with high water level.
This is recommended for people who are allergic to detergents and in areas where the water is very soft.
