WARNINGS

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

■ Any electrical work required to install this

appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person.

■ Make sure that the appliance does not stand

on its electrical supply cable.

■ If the machine is situated on a carpeted floor,

please adjust the feet in order to allow air to circulate freely.

■ This tumble dryer is designed to be vented

through to the open air. It should have its own ventilation system which should not be joined with any other ventilation system connected to any other appliance.

USE

■ Always unplug the appliance after use.

■ Clothes which are dripping wet should not be

placed in the dryer. Always load well spun laundry. The higher the spin speed, the lower the electricity consumption and the shorter the drying times.

■ Never tumble dry items that have been in

contact with chemicals such as dry cleaning fluid. These are of a volatile nature and could cause an explosion.

■ As some bulky items such as duvets and

eiderdowns should be dried in large commercial machines because of their bulk, check with the manufacturer of the item if it is suitable for drying in a domestic machine, even if the dry weight of the item is within the limit advised.

■ Always check that no cigarette lighters have

been left in pockets.

■ Leave the porthole door slightly ajar when not

in use to preserve the door seal.

■ The fluff filter must be cleaned after every use.

■ Do not operate the appliance with a damaged

filter as this may cause a fire.

■ Do not overload the appliance.

■ Do not allow fluff to accumulate around the

dryer.

SERVICE/REPAIR

■ Under no circumstances should you attempt to

repair the machine yourself. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or serious malfunctioning. Refer to your local Zanussi Service Centre. Always insist on genuine Zanussi spare parts.

GENERAL SAFETY

■ It is dangerous to modify or try to modify the

specifications of this appliance in any way.

■ This appliance is designed to be used by

adults. Children should not be allowed to touch the controls or play with the product.

■ Pets and small children may climb into tumble

dryers. Check your appliance each time before use.

ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION

■ The materials used on this appliance marked

with the symbol are recyclable. This means that they can be recycled by disposing of them properly in appropriate collection containers.

■ If you take your appliance to a refuse disposal

site, cut off the power cable flush with the appliance to avoid the danger of the appliance being re-used, and disable the door catch to prevent children becoming trapped inside.

INSTALLATION

Positioning

It is recommended that, for your convenience, the machine is positioned close to your washing machine. Whilst drying, the tumble dryer will expel a certain amount of warm, very moist air, and this should be removed from the room as quickly as possible to prevent condensation. In an extremely well ventilated room or close to an open window, this may occur naturally. However, in general, it is better to carry the dryer's exhaust outside via the 100 mm diameter flexible hose supplied with the appliance; ending either temporarily at an open window, or permanently at a fixed ventilation grille, fitted to an exterior wall or window. The tumble dryer must be installed in a clean place, where dirt does not build up. Make sure there are no obstructing items or material near the air-intake louvres provided at the back (e.g. paper, rags etc.).

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 two adjustable feet at the front of the machine 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

When operating the tumble dryer, the room temperature must not exceed 35°C, as it may affect the performance of the appliance.

Fitting the vent hose

To simplify the installation, there is a choice of vent outlets: one at the back, the others in the left and right-hand side. Connect the hose to whichever is the more convenient by pulling the ring nut (A) from the vent outlet at the back, screwing it on to the hose and pushing it firmly back into place. The unused vents should now be sealed with the special snap covers provided.
