Important safety information  
These warnings have been provided in the interest of safety. You MUST read them carefully before installing or  
using the appliance.  
Installation  
General safety  
• Any electrical work required to install this appliance  
should be carried out by a qualified electrician or  
competent person.  
• It is dangerous to alter the specifications or attempt  
to modify this product in any way.  
• 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  
Centre. Always insist on genuine Zanussi spare  
parts.  
• 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.  
• 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.  
Child safety  
• Children are often not aware of how dangerous  
electrical appliances can be. When the machine is  
working, children should be carefully supervised  
and not be allowed to play with the appliance.  
Use  
• The packaging components (e.g. plastic film,  
polystyrene) can be dangerous to children - danger  
of suffocation! Keep them out of children’s reach.  
• This appliance is designed for domestic use only. If  
the machine is used for any other purposes or is  
not used correctly, the manufacturer accepts no  
responsibility for any damage that might occur.  
• Make sure that children or pets do not climb into  
the drum.  
• Always unplug the appliance after use.  
• When the appliance is to be scrapped, cut off the  
electrical supply cable and destroy the plug with  
the remaining cable. Disable the door catch in  
order to prevent children from becoming trapped  
inside while playing.  
• Clothes which are dripping wet should not be  
placed in the dryer.  
Danger of explosion: Never tumble dry items that  
have been in contact with inflammable solvents  
(petrol, methylated spirits, dry cleaning fluid and  
the like). As these substances are volatile, they  
could cause an explosion. Tumble dry only items  
washed with water.  
• Please make sure that no gas lighters have  
accidentally been left in pockets of garments to be  
loaded into appliance.  
• Do not dry canvas shoes or sports shoes, as they  
could get stuck between the door and the drum,  
thus blocking this latter.  
• Leave the door slightly ajar when the appliance is  
not being used. This will allow the seal to be  
preserved.  
• Clean fluff filters after using the tumble dryer. To  
prevent fire risks, do not use the appliance if the  
fluff filters are damaged or without filters.  
• Do not allow fluff to accumulate around the dryer.

are  
Use authorised disposal sites for your old appliance.  
Help to keep your country tidy!  
This means that they can be recycled by disposing of  
them properly in appropriate collection containers.  
Tips for environmental protection  
To save energy and to help protect the environment,  
we recommend that you follow these hints:  
• To utilize the maximum load, laundry which is to be  
dried ready to put away (store dry) can be dried  
together with items to be ironed. To do this, select  
the programme for iron-dry, remove the iron-dry  
items at the end of the programme and then finish-  
dry the rest of the load.  
• Try to load the maximum 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.  
• Clean the filters regularly to avoid excessive drying  
times and high electricity consumption.  
• Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids creasing and  
saves energy.  
Select the drying programme according to the type  
of laundry and the required degree of dryness.  
• Ventilate the room well. The room temperature  
should not exceed +35°C during drying.

Installation  
The feet must never be removed.  
Warning!  
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.  
Unpacking  
Slide out the polythene bag with the  
polystyrene stuffing before using 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.  
P1106  
The unused vents should now be sealed with the  
special snap covers provided.  
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.  
A
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  
A
P1028  
P1027  
Advice: If the hose is long and the room  
temperature low, the moisture might condense to  
water inside the hose. This is an unavoidable  
natural phenomenon. To prevent this water from  
Iying in the hose or flowing back into the tumble  
dryer, it is advisable to drill a small hole (dia.  
3 mm) in the lowest point of the hose and to place a  
small container below it.(See picture, point B).  
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 feet until it is.

Once connected to the dryer, run the vent hose to  
the desired outlet point, ensuring that the run’s  
overall length is less than 2 m, and that it contains no  
more than two bends. As to the outlet itself, if you  
have decided on a fixed wall/window grille, a good  
local builder’s merchant should be able to supply you  
with the necessary fittings and installation advice.  
Electrical connection  
This machine is designed to operate on a 220-230 V,  
single-phase, 50 Hz supply.  
Check that your domestic electrical installation can  
take the maximum load required (2.2 kW), also  
taking into account any other appliances in use.  
Connect the machine to an earthed socket, in  
accordance with current wiring regulations.  
It is important not to connect the vent  
hose to, for example, a cooker hood, or  
a chimney or flue pipe designed to carry  
the exhaust from a fuel burning  
appliance.  
The manufacturer declines any  
responsibility for damage or injury  
through failure to comply with the  
above safety precaution.  
Stacking kit  
A special stacking kit is available through your  
dealer, to enable the mounting of the dryer on top of  
your washing machine.  
P0055  
Note that to avoid condensation problems, it is  
essential that the dryer be fitted with the flexible hose  
to carry its “exhaust” at least beyond the kitchen  
units; preferable outside the kitchen.  
P1107  
In order to prevent the appliance from overheating, it  
is important that the steam exhaust is unobstructed.  
Therefore, in case of a permanent hose fitted to an  
exterior wall or ceiling, it must be ensured an  
exhaust capacity of at least 150 m3/h.  
If the dryer is fitted next to kitchen units, make  
sure that the vent hose is not squashed. If the  
hose is partially squashed, drying efficiency will  
be reduced, resulting in longer drying times and  
higher energy consumption.  
If the hose is completely squashed, the safety  
cut-outs with which the machine is fitted may  
operate.

1 Programme Chart  
5 Drying Time Selector Dial  
This will help you to select the correct time for drying.  
The selector dial incorporates two drying cycles, one  
of up to 150 minutes at a high temperature for  
cotton and linen, and one of up to 100 minutes at a  
low temperature for synthetic fabrics.  
2 Low Temperature Button  
Press this button to reduce the temperature when  
drying particularly delicate cotton or linen items.  
In this case you should select a longer drying time.  
On the programmes for synthetics the temperature is  
automatically reduced.  
To set the machine to the selected time, turn the dial  
clockwise until the time you want coincides exactly  
with the pointer.  
NEVER attempt to turn the dial in an anticlockwise  
direction.  
Therefore it is not necessary to depress this button.  
When selecting the drying time, you should  
remember that it includes a 10 minute cooling phase  
(position  
on the dial).  
3 Start Button  
This phase should not be shortened, stopped or  
avoided, as this could cause skin burns or damages  
to the laundry.  
After selecting the drying time press this button to  
start the programme.  
If the door is opened during drying, this button has to  
be depressed again after closing the door to allow  
the programme to continue.  
Additional drying  
If at the end of the programme the laundry is still too  
damp, set the dial for a further period of drying  
(remembering to take into account the cooling  
period).

Never overfill the drum (do not load large quilts, for example).  
The laundry must be suitably spin dried in your washing machine before being placed in the tumble dryer  
(500rpm minimum).  
Drying times vary according to:  
- The type of laundry  
- The size of the load  
- The degree of spinning prior to drying  
Drying times are given as a guide only. Experience will soon enable you to estimate the drying time needed for  
your usual laundry loads.  
Do not start by selecting a long drying time. It is better to determine the required degree of dryness by gradually  
increasing the drying time.  
For a mixed load (cotton and resistant synthetics, for example) select the time for the most delicate fibres and  
increase it by 10 mins.

• Avoid drying dark clothes with light coloured fluffy  
items such as towels as they could attract the fluff.  
Useful hints  
• The laundry must be thoroughly spun before  
tumble drying.  
• Try to load to the maximum capacity of the  
machine as small loads are uneconomical.  
For information, here is a list of the average  
weights of some common laundry items.  
Easy-care items, too, e.g. shirts, should be briefly  
pre-spun before drying (depending on crease  
resistance approx. 30 seconds or using the special  
brief spin programme of your washing machine).  
Sheet  
700 - 1000 g  
• Knitted textiles (knitted underwear) may shrink a

• Remove the laundry when the dryer has finished  
drying.  
Man’s pyjamas  
Ladies’ nightdress  
• If individual items are still damp after drying, set a  
brief post-drying time, but at least 20 minutes.  
This will be necessary particularly for multilayered  
items (e.g. collars, pockets, etc.).  
• Never tumble dry the following:  
Particularly delicate items such as net curtains,  
woollen, silk, fabrics with metal trim, nylon tights,  
bulky materials such as anoraks, blankets,  
eiderdowns, sleeping bags, feather quilts and any  
items containing rubber foam or materials similar  
to rubber foam.  
• Always follow the instructions on garment labels:  
may be tumble dried  
normal drying (high temperature)  
delicate drying (low temperature)  
do not tumble dry  
• Close pillowcases and covers with fasteners to  
prevent small laundry items getting tangled inside  
them. Close press studs, zips and hooks and tie  
belts and apron strings.  
• Sort laundry according to type and degree of  
drying required.  
• Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids creasing and  
saves energy.

Maintenance and Cleaning  
You must disconnect the appliance from the  
electricity supply, before you can carry out any  
cleaning or maintenance work.  
If necessary the filters can be cleaned under running  
water using a brush. In this case remove the filter in  
the door opening as per picture (it can be positioned  
with the tooth facing to the left or to the right).  
External cleaning  
Use only soap and water and then dry thoroughly.

Cleaning the filters  
Your dryer will only function well if the filters are  
clean.  
The filters collect all the fluff which accumulates  
during drying and they must therefore be cleaned at  
the end of each programme, before removing the  
laundry, with a damp cloth.

The filter in the inner door must be removed for  
cleaning.  
Do not be alarmed by the amount of fluff. It is not  
due to excessive wear caused by the dryer. All fabric  
loses fluff when drying but it goes un-noticed in the  
air. In a tumble dryer it simply collects in the filter.
