Safety instructionsHints and tipsEnvironmental information


4Your New Washer-DryerYour new washer-dryer, fitted with the Zanussi JET SYSTEM, meets all modern requirementsfor effective treatment of laundry with low water, energy and detergent consumption. Even small loads are washed economically because the amount of water used is regulatedautomatically according to the load and type of fabric.It is gentle with your laundry, simple to use and easy to care for.

The special wool programme with its new delicatewash system treats your woollens with extreme care.

The anti-unbalance device ensures that themachine remains stable when spinning.

Automatic cooling of the wash water to 60Cbefore draining, with the 90C programme. Thisreduces thermal shock to fabrics, helping to preventcreasing.

The two drying programmes will give your washthat soft, relaxed feel whatever the weather.

Ecological hintsTo save water and energy and help protect theenvironment, we recommend that you follow thesehints: Adjust the quantity of detergent according to the

hardness of your water supply, the amount oflaundry and the degree of soiling.

Select a Quick programme for lightly soiledlaundry.

A programme without prewash is sufficient fornormally soiled laundry.

Try to load the maximum drying capacity of themachine as small loads are uneconomical.

Always load well spun laundry. The higher the spinspeed, the lower the electricity consumption and theshorter the drying times.

In the interest of the environment

Materials marked with the symbol arerecyclable.

Check with your local Council or EnvironmentalHealth Office to see if there are facilities in your areafor re-cycling this appliance.

When the appliance is to be scrapped, cut off thepower supply cable and make the door lock deviceunusable to prevent young children from beingtrapped inside.

Help to keep your country tidy - use authoriseddisposal sites for your old appliance.

How do we help to protect the environment?We use recycled paper!

ImportantYour 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 evenlydistributed in the drum, the balance control device may have operated. It will therefore be necessary to redistribute thewash load manually and select a spin programme. For more detailed information see the section headed "SomethingNot Working".

Washing and Drying HintsDo NOT overload the machine. Weigh the laundry thefirst few times you use the appliance. The average weights of the most common items arelisted below as a guide:

1000g = 1 kgSheet 700-1000 gPillow case 100-200 gTablecloth 400-500 gServiette 50-100 gTea towel 70-120 gLinen hand towel 100-150 gTowelling hand towel 150-250 gTowelling bath towel 700-1000 gBath robe 1000-1500 gMans shirt 200-300 gApron 150-200 g

Load the laundry loosely alternating large items withsmall ones.

Sort the laundry according to the type of fabric,colour-fastness and how dirty it is.

Avoid washing unhemmed or torn items as they mayunravel.

Before washing, empty all pockets of small objectswhich may have been left inside (coins, keys, screwsetc). as these could damage the drain pump.

When washing curtains, remove the hooks. Close poppers and zips and fasten loose buttons. It is essential to wash new coloured items separately

when washing for the first time. When washing fabrics requiring different wash

temperatures together, always select the lowesttemperature.

White items should not be washed with coloureditems.

Very small items (handkerchiefs, ribbons, socks etc)should be washed in a washing bag or a pillow case.

Use a good quality detergent suitable for automaticwashing machines.

Use the correct quantities of detergent. For wool, use gentle detergent only in small

quantities. Bleach is very corrosive; it should be used with care

and kept out of reach of children.

Some stains such as fruit, wine, grass, rust etc. aredifficult to remove and should be treated beforewashing with specific products, which can be foundin most household shops. In some cases it may helpto soak the stain before washing with a special pre-soak product or biological detergent.

If you have used the machine to wash, rinse or spinonly non-colour fast garments, there may be dye leftin the sump. To ensure any subsequent wash is notcontaminated with the dye, select and carry out arinse and spin programme, without any garments, toensure that any dye is removed from the sump.

Do not leave the damp laundry load in a heap toolong before drying.

Avoid drying dark clothes with light coloured fluffyitems such as towels as these can attract the fluff.

If you overdry the laundry, besides wasting energy,any subsequent ironing may become more difficultbecause the fabric could be heavily crumpled.

Remove the laundry when the appliance has finisheddrying.

To avoid a static charge when drying is completed,use either a fabric softener when you are washing thelaundry or a fabric conditioner specifically fortumble dryers.

Particularly delicate items such as synthetic curtains,woollen and silk, garments with metal inserts, nylonstockings, bulky garments such as anoraks,bedcovers, quilts, sleeping bags and duvets must notbe machine dried.

Garments padded with foam-rubber or materialssimilar to foam-rubber must not be machine dried;they represent a fire hazard.

Also, fabrics containing residues of setting lotions orhair sprays, nail solvents or similar solutions mustnot be machine dried in order to avoid the formationof harmful vapours.

For drying, follow the indications given on themanufacturers labels.

Drying at high temperatureDrying at reduced temperatureDo not tumble dry

Important:As a dryer, the machine works on the condensationprinciple.Therefore, the water taps must be open and thedrain hose must drain water into a sink or intothe drain pipe, even during the drying cycle.

And in which form?Not only are there different types of detergent, but theyare also available in different forms. Whether you chosea powder or liquid in traditional or compact form isyour own personal choice.

TRADITIONAL POWDERSPour the powder directly into the dispenser drawer. Donot sprinkle powder onto clothes in the machine drum.

TRADITIONAL LIQUIDSLiquid can be placed in the main wash compartment ofthe detergent drawer marked with the symbol , startthe machine immediately upon placing thedetergent in the dispenser drawer.Alternatively the detergent is measured into thespecially designed dosing device* which should beplaced on top of the laundry, and at the back of themachine drum.

COMPACT POWDERS AND LIQUIDSCompact detergents (or concentrates as they are alsoknown) are available in liquid or powder form, andgenerally require a smaller dosage. Follow themanufacturers instructions to ensure the mosteconomical usage. Pour the detergent directly into thedispenser drawer, or alternatively measure the detergentinto the specially designed dosing device* whichshould be placed on top of the laundry, and at the backof the machine drum.

* If you use a dosing device in a washer dryer,please ensure the dosing device/ball is removedbefore carrying out a drying programme.

FABRIC CONDITIONERSThese are ideal for improving softness, and alsoreduce static cling on synthetics and make ironingeasier. They are available in two types:

For example Lenor liquid fabric softener, for use in the washingmachine/washer dryer. Theliquid fabric softener should bepoured into the compartmentmarked with the symbol .Follow the manufacturers dosageinstructions and never exceed theMAX level.

Bounce conditioning sheets for use in a tumble dryer. We recommendthe conditioning sheets are pinned(using a safety pin) to an articleof laundry and placed in the tumble dryer.

Which detergent?....To ensure you obtain the best wash results from yourappliance, it is important to use the right detergent inyour everyday wash, and only detergents recommendedfor use in automatic machines.To maintain the appearance of your clothes andhousehold textiles and to make them last longer youshould use different types of detergent for differentwashes, whether for whites, colours or delicates.

WHITESWe recommend the Ariel productrange which is biological anddesigned to provide excellentcleaning and stain removal evenat low temperatures.

NON BIOLOGICALIf you prefer to use a nonbiological detergent, which doesnot contain enzymes werecommend Fairy. Fairy providesgood cleaning and stain removal.

COLOUREDSFor coloured items you should use adetergent which is designed to cleanwhile maintaining the original colour.Ariel Color does not contain bleach and therefore helps to preservecolours.

DELICATE ITEMSWhen washing delicates such aswoollens, you should use a productwhich is specially designed to care forfine fabrics.Dreft Automatic is suitable forwoollens and other delicates.

LAUNDRY BLEACHFor additional stain removal you maywish to use a product such as AceGentle Bleach which is used in additionto your chosen detergent. Ace issuitable for all washable fabricsincluding silks, woollens and coloureds.

Maintenance and CleaningBefore any maintenance or cleaning is carried out youmust DISCONNECT the appliance from the electricitysupply.

DescalingThe water we use normally contains lime. It is a goodidea to periodically use a water softening powder in themachine. Do this separately from any laundry washing,and according to the softening powder manufacturer'sinstructions. This will help to prevent the formation oflime deposits.

After each washLeave the door open for a while. This helps to preventmould and stagnant smells forming inside the appliance.Keeping the door open after a wash will also help topreserve the door seal.

External cleaningClean the exterior cabinet of the appliance with soap andwater only, and then dry thoroughly.

Cleaning the dispenser drawerThe washing powder and additive dispenser drawershould be cleaned regularly.Remove the drawer by pressing the catch downwardsand by pulling it out. Flush it out under a tap, to removeany traces of accumulated powder.To aid cleaning, the top part of the additive compartmentshould be removed.

Cleaning the drawer recessHaving removed the drawer, use a small brush to cleanthe recess, ensuring that all washing powder residue isremoved from the upper and lower part of the recess.Replace the drawer and run the rinse programmewithout any clothes in the drum.

Cleaning the filterThe water drain filterA clean filter is important for the correct functioning ofthe machine, and should therefore be cleaned after everywashing programme.Open the filter door and place a container underneath tocatch any spillage.

If the filter is blocked and the machine is unable to drainyou will need to drain the water manually from themachine at this stage. To do this, unhook the drain hosefrom the standpipe or sink and hold the end of the hoseover a bowl on the floor. The water should drain bygravity into the bowl. When the bowl is full, hook thehose back up and empty the bowl. Repeat the procedureuntil water stops flowing out.Unscrew and remove the filter.


21

Clean carefully under a fast running tap.

WarningWhen the appliance is in use and depending on theprogramme selected there can be hot water in the filter.Never remove the filter during a wash cycle, alwayswait until the appliance has finished the cycle, and isempty. When replacing the filter, ensure it is securelyretightened so as to stop leaks and young children beingable to remove it.

The water inlet filterIf your water is very hard or contains traces of limedeposit, the water inlet filter may become clogged.It is therefore a good idea to clean it from time to time.Turn off the water tap. Unscrew the water inlet hose.Clean the filter using a hard bristle brush.Tighten up the inlet hose.

The dangers of freezingIf the machine is exposed to temperatures below 0C,certain precautions should be taken. Turn off the water tap. Unscrew the inlet hose. Unhook the drain hose from the rear support and

position the end of this hose and that of the inlethoses in a bowl. Run the draining programme.To do this: Switch the machine on Select a washing programme Press the SKIP/RESET button three times Press START/PAUSE button

Disconnect the appliance. Screw the inlet hose and reposition the drain hose. When you intend to start the machine up again,

make sure that the room temperature is above 0C.

Maintenance WashWith the use of low temperature washes it is possible toget a build up of residues inside the drum. We recommend that a maintenance wash be performedon a regular basis.To run a maintenance wash: The drum should be empty of laundry. Select the hottest cotton wash programme. Use a normal measure of detergent, must be a

powder (such as Ariel Futur).


22

Something Not WorkingCertain problems are due to lack of simple maintenance or oversights, which can be solved easily withoutcalling out an engineer. Before contacting your local Service Force Centre, please carry out the checks listedbelow.IMPORTANT: if you call out an engineer to a fault listed below, or to repair a fault caused by incorrect use orinstallation, a charge will be made even if the appliance is under guarantee.During machine operation it is possible that one of the following alarm codes appears on the display:- E10 : problem with the water supply If at the end of the programme the alarm code EFO is displayed this - E20 : problem with water draining means that the drain filter is clogged.- E40 : door openOnce the problem has been eliminated, press the START/PAUSE button to restart the programme. If after allchecks, the problem persists, contact your local Service Force Centre.

Symptom

The machine does not start

Possible causes

The door has not been closed. (E40) The plug is not properly inserted in the power socket. There is no supply at the socket. The main fuse or the fuse in the plug has blown. The START/PAUSE button has not been depressed. The DELAY START option has been selected.

The machine does not fill The water tap is closed. (E10) The filter in the inlet hose is blocked. (E10) The inlet hose may be squashed or kinked. (E10) The door has not been closed. (E40)

The machine fills then emptiesimmediately

The end of the drain hose is too low. The end of the drain hose is submerged in water. There is no vent in the end of the drain hose.

The machine does not empty and/ordoes not spin

The drain hose may be squashed or kinked. (E20) The RINSE HOLD option has been selected. The drain filter may be blocked. (E20) The drain hose extension, if fitted, is not correct. Follow the

instructions for connecting to the waste. The drainage system pipes are blocked. The wash load is unbalanced: redistribute the clothes inside the drum to

allow the machine to spin.

There is water on the floor Too much detergent or unsuitable detergent has been used (creates toomuch foam).

Check whether there are any leaks from the inlet hose fittings. It is notalways easy to see this as the water runs down the hose; check to see ifit is damp.

The drain hose may be damaged or not securely positioned. The detergent dispenser drawer or recess is clogged. The drainage system pipes are blocked.

Unsatisfactory washing results Too little detergent or unsuitable detergent has been used. Aninsufficient amount of detergent leaves the laundry looking grey andcauses lime scale to form.

Stubborn stains have not been treated prior to washing The correct wash programme/temperature has not been selected. Too much laundry has been placed in the drum.


23

Symptom

The door will not open

Possible causes

The water level is above the bottom edge of the door. The machine is heating the water or drying the clothes. The drum is turning.The door can only be opened when the relevant light has gone out.

Spinning starts late or the machinedoes not spin

The electronic unbalance detection device has cut in because thelaundry is not evenly distributed in the drum. The laundry isredistributed by reverse rotation of the drum. This may happen severaltimes before the unbalance disappears and normal spinning can resume.If, after few minutes, the laundry is still not evenly distributed in thedrum, the machine will spin at a lower spin or will not spin. In thiscase, redistribute the load manually and select the spin programme.

The machine makes an unusualnoise

The machine is fitted with a type of motor which makes an unusualnoise compared with other traditional motors. This new motor ensuresa softer start and more even distribution of the laundry in the drumwhen spinning, as well as increased stability of the machine.

No water is visible in the drum Machines based on modern technology operate very economicallyusing very little water without affecting performance.

The machine does not dry or doesnot dry properly

The drying time or degree of drying has not been selected The water tap is not turned on (E10) The drain filter is clogged (E20) The machine is overloaded The selected drying time was not suitable for the laundry

The machine vibrates when spinning The internal packing has not been removed. The machine is in contact with the wall or furniture. The machine is not level and stable (check diagonally). The washing load is badly distributed in the drum. Maybe there is very little laundry in the drum.

Unpacking

All transit bolts and packing must be removedbefore using the appliance.

You are advised to keep all the packaging for re-use incase the machine is to be transported again.Using a spanner unscrew and remove the rear right bolt.Lay the machine gently on its back, making sure that thehoses are not squashed.

Remove the polystyrene block from the bottom of themachine and release the two plastic bags.Carefully slide out the right polythene bag (1).Repeat the operation for the left polythene bag (2).

Remove the polystyrene base.Set the machine upright and remove the two remainingbolts from the back.Pull out the three plastic spacers from the holes intowhich the bolts were fitted.Plug the open holes with the plugs which you can findin the envelope containing the istruction booklet.

PositioningInstall the machine on a flat hard floor.Make sure that air circulation around the machine is notimpeded by carpets, rugs etc. Check that the machinedoes not touch the wall or other kitchen units.Never place cardboard, wood or similar materials underthe machine to compensate for any unevenness in thefloor.Your new washing machine has been designed to bepermanently plumbed in to your homes water supplyand drainage system. However, if this is not possible, itmay be connected to a suitable existing tap with thedrain hose discharging into a sink.The appliance has an inlet hose, with female 3/4 BSPthread connector. If this connection is not compatiblewith the plumbing of the existing installation, a varietyof connectors are available from good hardware storesand plumbers merchants to suit most domesticplumbing. Any alteration to your existing plumbingmust be carried out by a competent person, or qualifiedplumber.

Installation on a Suspended FloorSuspended wooden floors are particularly susceptible tovibration. To help prevent vibration we recommend youplace a waterproof wood panel, at least 15 mm thickunder the appliance, secured to at least 2 floor beamswith screws. If possible install the appliance in one ofthe corners of the room, where the floor is more stable.

Water inletConnect the hose to a tap with a 3/4 thread.

Installation should comply with local water authorityand building regulations requirements.The appliance must be connected to a cold watersupply. A minimum water pressure of 50 kPa (0.5 bar) isrequired for safe operation of the appliance.


29

If you cannot make the cold water connection directfrom the rising mains, you may be able to operate theappliance from your cold water storage system.There should be a minimum distance of 5.02m (161/2 ft) between the appliances inlet and the bottomof the water storage tank.Set the hose correctly by loosening the ring nut. Afterpositioning the inlet hose, be sure to tighten the ring nutagain to prevent leaks.

Water drainageThis appliance is designed to be permanently plumbedinto your home's water supply and drainage system.

The appliance drain hose should hook into a standpipe,the hook in the drain hose is formed using the plasticU-Piece supplied.The standpipe should have an internal diameter ofapproximately 38mm (see diagram) thus ensuring thereis an air break between the drain hose and standpipe.

When discharging into a standpipe ensure that the top ofthe curve in the hose end is no more than 90cm (35.4'')and no less than 60cm (23.6'') above floor level. Theupright standpipe should have a minimum length of30cm (12'') from the bottom of the elbow to the top ofthe pipe (see diagram).Make sure that it is designed in such a way, that the endof the drain hose cannot be covered with water. Thedrain hose may be extended to a maximum of 4 metres.An additional drain hose and joining piece is available from your local Service Force Centre. The joining piece must have an internal diameter of18mm.If you intend the drain hose to empty into a sink, makesure that the sink is empty and the plug hole is notblocked. Use the plastic U-Piece supplied.

ImportantBefore connecting up the machine to new pipework orto pipework that has not been used for some time, runoff a reasonable amount of water to flush out any debristhat may have collected in the pipes.


30

LevellingLevel the washing machine by raising or lowering thefeet. The feet may be tight to adjust as they incorporatea self locking nut, but the machine MUST be level andstable (check diagonally).

Any necessary adjustment can be made with a spanner.Accurate levelling prevents vibration, noise anddisplacement of the machine during operation.Some vibration is inevitable, especially if mounted on awooden floor.Sprung wooden floors are particularly susceptible tovibration. For advice, consult a builder. If possible,always place the machine on a solid floor.

Special conditionsIf the floor is carpeted or covered with crumbly or softmaterial, insert a rigid support base under the feet toprevent noise, vibration or displacement. The baseshould protrude a few centimetres beyond the edges ofthe machine.

WarningThe machine should NOT be placed on deep pilecarpeting.

NotePlease ensure that when the appliance is installed it iseasily accessible for the engineer in the event of abreakdown.

In the interest of theenvironmentWashing machines and dishwashers should beconnected to the FOUL drainage system, the water willthen be taken to a sewage works for treatment beforebeing discharged safely into a river.It is essential that these appliances are not connected tothe surface water drainage system as this water isdischarged directly into a river or stream and may causepollution.If you require any further advice please contact yourlocal water authority.
