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.

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!

2 WASH’N’DRY button
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.

DRY
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.
