Your New Washing Machine  
i
Your new washing m achine m eets all m odern requirem ents for effective treatm ent of laundry  
with low water, energy and detergent consum ption.  
Automatic Half Load  
Your machine uses water sensing technology to  
automatically adjust the water consumption on a half  
load.  
In t he int erest  
o f t he enviro nm ent  
Materials marked with the symbol  
recyclable.  
are  
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.  
Check with your local Council or Environmental  
Health Office to see if there are facilities in your area  
for re-cycling this appliance.  
The special wool programme with its new delicate  
wash system treats your woollens with extreme care.  
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.  
Eco logical hint s  
To save water and energy and help protect the  
environment, we recommend that you follow these  
hints:  
Help to keep your country tidy - use authorised  
disposal sites for your old appliance.  
The machine works more economically if it is fully  
loaded.  
How do we help to protect the environm ent?  
We use recycled paper!  
Adjust the quantity of detergent according to the  
hardness of your water supply, the amount of  
laundry and the degree of soiling.  
Select a “quick” programme for lightly soiled  
laundry.  
A programme without prewash is sufficient for  
normally soiled laundry.  
With adequate pre-treatment, stains and limited  
soiling can be removed; the laundry can then be  
washed at a lower temperature.  
Im p o r t ant  
Your 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 evenly  
distributed in the drum, the balance control device may have operated. It will therefore be necessary to redistribute the  
wash load manually and select a spin programme. For more detailed information see the section headed "Something  
Not Working".

Washing Hints  
i
Do NOT overload the machine. Weigh the laundry the  
Bleach is very corrosive; it should be used with care  
and kept out of reach of children.  
first few times you use the appliance.  
Some stains such as fruit, wine, grass, rust etc. are  
difficult to remove and should be treated before  
washing with specific products, which can be found  
in most household shops. In some cases it may help  
to soak the stain before washing with a special pre-  
soak product or biological detergent.  
The average weights of the most common items are  
listed below as a guide:  
1000g = 1 kg  
Sheet  
700-1000 g  
100-200 g  
400-500 g  
50-100 g  
Pillow case  
Tablecloth  
Only wool marked “Pure New Wool - washable,  
preshrunk” can be washed in the machine using the  
wool programme; other types of wool should be  
washed by hand or dry cleaned.  
Serviette  
Tea towel  
70-120 g  
If you have used the machine to wash, rinse or spin  
only non-colour fast garments, there may be dye left  
in the sump. To ensure any subsequent wash is not  
contaminated with the dye, select and carry out a  
rinse and spin programme, without any garments, to  
ensure that any dye is removed from the sump.

Once you have finished using the machine, you are  
advised to unplug it and turn off the water taps.  
Man’s shirt  
Apron  
Load the laundry loosely alternating large items with  
small 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 may  
unravel.  
Before washing, empty all pockets of small objects  
which may have been left inside (coins, keys, screws  
etc). 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 lowest  
temperature.  
White items should not be washed with coloured  
items.  
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 automatic  
washing machines.  
Use the correct quantities of detergent.  
For wool, use gentle detergent only in small  
quantities.

And in w hich fo r m ?  
Which d et ergent ?....  
Not only are there different types of detergent, but they  
are also available in different forms. Whether you chose  
a powder or liquid in traditional or compact form is to  
own personal choice.  
To ensure you obtain the best wash results from your  
appliance, it is important to use the right detergent in  
your everyday wash, and only detergents recommended  
for use in automatic machines.  
To maintain the appearance of your clothes and  
household textiles and to make them last longer you  
should use different types of detergent for different  
washes, whether for whites, colours or delicates.  
TRADITIONAL POWDERS  
Pour the powder directly into the dispenser drawer. Do  
not sprinkle powder onto clothes in the machine drum.  
TRADITIONAL LIQUIDS  
Liquid can be placed in the main wash compartment of  
the detergent drawer marked with the symbol  
the machine immediately upon placing the detergent in  
the dispenser drawer.  
Alternatively the detergent is measured into the  
specially designed dosing device* which should be  
placed on top of the laundry, and at the back of the  
machine drum.  
WHITES  
We recommend the Ariel product  
range which is biological and  
designed to provide excellent  
cleaning and stain removal even  
at low temperatures.  
, start  
NON BIOLOGICAL  
If you prefer to use a non  
biological detergent, which does  
not contain enzymes we  
recommend Fairy. Fairy provides  
good cleaning and stain removal.  
COMPACT POWDERS AND LIQUIDS  
Compact detergents (or concentrates as they are also  
known) are available in liquid or powder form, and  
generally require a smaller dosage. Follow the  
manufacturer’s instructions to ensure the most  
economical usage. Pour the detergent directly into the  
dispenser drawer, or alternatively measure the detergent  
into the specially designed dosing device* which should  
be placed on top of the laundry, and at the back of the  
machine drum.  
COLOUREDS  
For coloured items you should use a  
detergent which is designed to clean  
while maintaining the original colour.  
Ariel Color does not contain bleach  
and therefore helps to preserve  
colours.  
* If you use a dosing device in a washer dryer,  
please ensure the dosing device/ball is removed  
before carrying out a drying programme.  
DELICATE ITEMS  
FABRIC CONDITIONERS  
When washing delicates such as  
woollens, you should use a product  
which is specially designed to care for  
fine fabrics.  
These are ideal for improving ‘softness’, and also  
reduce static cling on synthetics and make ironing  
easier. They are available in two types:  
Dreft Automatic is suitable for  
woollens and other delicates.  
For example Lenor liquid fabric  
softener, for use in the washing  
machine/washer dryer. The  
liquid fabric softener should be  
poured into the compartment  
LAUNDRY BLEACH  
For additional stain removal you may  
wish to use a product such as Ace  
Gentle Bleach which is used in addition  
to your chosen detergent. Ace is  
suitable for all washable fabrics  
including silks, woollens and coloureds.  
marked with the symbol  
.
Follow the manufacturer’s dosage  
instructions and never exceed the  
MAX level.  
Bounce conditioning sheets for use  
in a tumble dryer. We recommend  
the conditioning sheets are pinned  
(using a safety pin) to an article  
of laundry and placed in the  
tumble dryer.

Maintenance and Cleaning  
Before any maintenance or cleaning is carried out you  
must DISCONNECT the appliance from the electricity  
supply.  
Descaling  
The water we use normally contains lime. It is a good  
idea to periodically use a water softening powder in the  
machine. Do this separately from any laundry washing,  
and according to the softening powder manufacturer's  
instructions. This will help to prevent the formation of  
lime deposits.  
Aft er each wash  
Leave the door open for a while. This helps to prevent  
mould and stagnant smells forming inside the appliance.  
Keeping the door open after a wash will also help to  
preserve the door seal.  
Ex t er nal cleaning  
Clean the exterior cabinet of the appliance with soap  
and water only, and then dry thoroughly.  
Cleaning t he d isp enser d rawer  
From time to time the washing powder and additive  
dispenser drawer should be cleaned.  
Remove the drawer by pressing the catch downwards  
and by pulling it out. Flush it out under a tap, to remove  
any traces of accumulated powder.  
P0224  
P0225  
Cleaning t he d rawer recess  
Having removed the drawer, use a small brush to clean  
the recess, ensuring that all washing powder residue is  
removed from the upper and lower part of the recess.  
Replace the drawer and run the rinse programme  
without any clothes in the drum.

Cleaning t he filt er  
The water drain filter  
A clean filter is important for the correct functioning of  
the machine, and should therefore be cleaned after every  
washing programme.  
Open the filter door and place a container underneath to  
catch any spillage. If the filter is blocked and the  
machine is unable to drain you will need to drain the  
water manually from the machine at this stage. To do  
this, unhook the drain hose from the standpipe or sink  
and hold the end of the hose over a bowl on the floor.  
The water should drain by gravity into the bowl. When  
the bowl is full, hook the hose back up and empty the  
bowl. Repeat the procedure until water stops flowing  
out.  
P0132  
P0011  
Unscrew and remove the filter.  
Clean carefully under a fast running tap.  
Warning  
When the appliance is in use and depending on the  
programme selected there can be hot water in the filter.  
Never remove the filter during a wash cycle, always  
wait until the appliance has finished the cycle, and is  
empty. When replacing the filter, ensure it is securely  
retightened so as to stop leaks and young children being  
able to remove it.  
P0133  
P0040  
The water inlet filters  
If your water is very hard or contains traces of lime  
deposit, the water inlet filters may become clogged.  
It is therefore a good idea to clean them from time to  
time.  
Turn off the water taps. Unscrew the water inlet hoses.  
Remove and clean the filters using a hard bristle brush.  
Replace the filters and tighten up the inlet hoses.  
P0041  
The d anger s o f freezing  
If the machine is exposed to temperatures below 0°C,  
certain precautions should be taken.  
Turn off the water taps.  
Unscrew the inlet hoses.  
Unhook the drain hose from the rear support and  
position the end of this hose and that of the inlet  
hoses in a bowl. Run the draining programme.  
Disconnect the appliance.  
Screw the inlet hoses and reposition the drain hose.  
When you intend to start the machine up again,  
make sure that the room temperature is above 0°C.

Som ething Not Working  
Certain problems are due to lack of simple maintenance or oversights, which can be solved easily without calling out  
an engineer. Before contacting your local Service Force Centre, please carry out the checks listed below.  
IMPORTANT: if you call out an engineer to a fault listed below, or to repair a fault caused by incorrect use or  
installation, a charge will be made even if the appliance is under guarantee.  
Sym ptom  
Possible causes  
The machine does not start  
The door has not been closed.  
The plug is not properly inserted in the power socket.  
There is no current at the socket  
The main fuse or the fuse in the plug has blown.  
The selector dial is not correctly positioned.  
The ON/OFF button has not been depressed.  
The machine does not fill  
Ensure the water taps are open.  
The filters in the inlet hoses are blocked.  
The inlet hoses may be squashed or kinked.  
The door has not been closed.  
The machine fills then empties  
immediately  
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/or  
does not spin  
The drain hose may be squashed or kinked.  
The RINSE HOLD option has been selected.  
The drain filter may be blocked.  
The drain hose extension 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 too  
much foam).  
Check whether there are any leaks from one of the inlet hose(s) fittings.  
It is not always easy to see this as the water runs down the hose; check  
to see if it 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. An  
insufficient amount of detergent leaves the laundry looking grey and  
causes lime scale to form.  
Stubborn stains have not been treated prior to washing  
The correct wash programme has not been selected.  
Too much laundry has been placed in the drum.  
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.  
The washing load is badly distributed in the drum.  
Maybe there is very little laundry in the drum.

Sym ptom  
Possible causes  
The programme is still running.  
The door lock has not yet released.  
There is water in the tub  
The door will not open  
The electronic unbalance detection device has cut in because the  
Spinning starts late or the machine  
does not spin  
laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum. The laundry is  
redistributed by reverse rotation of the drum. This may happen several  
times before the unbalance disappears and normal spinning can resume.  
If, after 10 minutes, the laundry is still not evenly distributed in the  
drum, the machine will not spin. In this case, redistribute the load  
manually and reselect the spin programme.  
The machine makes an unusual  
noise  
The machine is fitted with a type of motor which makes an unusual  
noise compared with other traditional motors. This new motor ensures a  
softer start and more even distribution of the laundry in the drum when  
spinning, as well as increased stability of the machine.  
No water is visible in the drum  
Machines based on modern technology operate very economically  
using very little water without affecting performance.  
If after the above checks, there is still a fault, call your  
local Zanussi Service Force Centre.

Im portant  
Before connecting up the machine to new pipework or  
to pipework that has not been used for some time, run  
off a reasonable amount of water to flush out any debris  
that may have collected in the pipes.  
Levelling  
Level the washing machine by raising or lowering the  
feet. The feet may be tight to adjust as they incorporate  
a self locking nut, but the machine MUST be level.  
Any necessary adjustment can be made with a spanner.  
Accurate levelling prevents vibration, noise and  
displacement of the machine during operation.  
Some vibration is inevitable, especially if mounted on a  
wooden floor.  
P0850  
Sprung wooden floors are particularly susceptible to  
vibration. For advice, consult a builder. If possible,  
always place the machine on a solid floor.  
Sp ecial co nd it io ns  
If the floor is carpeted or covered with crumbly or soft  
material, insert a rigid support base under the feet to  
prevent noise, vibration or displacement. The base  
should protrude a few centimetres beyond the edges of  
the machine.  
Warning  
The machine should NOT be placed on deep pile  
carpeting.  
Note  
Please ensure that when the appliance is installed it is  
easily accessible for the engineer in the event of a  
breakdown.
