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 washer-dryers. Please check your drum before use.
■The glass door becomes very hot during the washing and drying cycle. Keep children away from the vicinity of the appliance whilst it is in operation.
■Keep all packaging well away from 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 and dry fabrics which are designed to be machine washed and dried. 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/dried in large commercial machines because of their bulk, please check with the manufacturer of the item before washing in a domestic machine.
■The users should always check that they have not left their gas lighters (disposable or otherwise) in their clothing.
■Never tumble dry items that have had contact with chemicals such as dry cleaning fluid.These are of a volatile nature and could cause an explosion.
Only tumble dry items which have been washed in water or require airing.
■Plastic detergent dispensers should not remain in the drum during the drying cycle, as the plastic used is not designed to withstand the heat. If you wish to wash-through-to-dry you should use the conventional detergent dispenser drawer.
■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 Washer-Dryer
Your new washer-dryer is gentle with your laundry, simple to use and easy to care for.
■Programme and temperature setting using the programme selector.
■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 two drying programmes will give your wash that soft, relaxed feel whatever the weather.
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 the “economy” programme for normally soiled laundry.
■A programme without prewash is sufficient for normally soiled laundry.
■Try to load the maximum drying 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.
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!

1 Programme guide
2 WASH’N’DRY button WASH'N'
D R Y
This button allows you to wash and dry a half load. To do this, first select the required wash programme. Depress the wash’n’dry button and then select the drying time. After completing the wash cycle, the machine will automatically begin the drying phase.
The wash’n’dry option can be used only on programmes A, B, C, D, F, G, H, K and L.
Do not use detergent ball dispensers when using wash’n’dry programmes.
3 HEAVY SOIL button 
By pressing the heavy soil button, the machine will take in cold water only on programmes with a water temperature of 60°C and 95°C (programmes A-B-C). These would normally be hot and cold, or hot fill only. 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.
4 ECONOMY button 
Depress this button prior to selecting wash cycle B. The wash temperature will be reduced from 95°C to 60°C; the duration of the wash programme will be increased by approx. 10 mins.
This will ensure a substantial saving in electricity consumption.
It is advisable to depress this button particularly when washing white fabrics which do not have stubborn stains.
5 ON/OFF button
By depressing this button the machine starts
operating. When depressing it again, the machine stops.
6 Drying indicator light 
This light illuminates when the machine is drying.
7 Drying time selector dial
Graduated up to 120 mins for cottons and synthetics, this dial allows you to select the desired drying time according to the type and quantity of laundry and the required degree of dryness.
Turn the dial clockwise only.
Cooling phase 
To allow the laundry to cool down, a cooling phase starts automatically 8 minutes before the end of drying and this phase must in no circumstances be reduced or interrupted.
8 Mains-on light 
This light will illuminate when the machine starts working and goes out when the ON/OFF button is depressed again to switch the machine off.
9 Programme selector dial
With the programme selector dial you choose the desired washing and drying programme.
Turn it clockwise.
Before setting the dial to any position the machine must be switched off by depressing the ON/OFF button.
6
Operating Sequence
Before the first wash, we recommend that you 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.
WASHING 4.5 KG OF WHITE COTTON AT 95°C

The door can be opened after the door locked light has gone out.
Switch the machine off by depressing the ON/OFF button again. The mains-on light will go out.
