Warnings

The following warnings are provided in the interests of overall safety. You must read them carefully before installing or using the appliance.

Installation

• All internal packing must be removed before using the appliance. Serious damage may be caused to the machine or adjacent furniture if the protective transit devices are not removed or are not completely removed. Refer to the relevant paragraph in the instruction book.
• Any electrical work required to install this appliance must be carried out by a qualified electrician.
• Any plumbing work required to install this appliance must be carried out by a qualified plumber.
  • After having installed the machine, check that it is not standing on its electrical supply cable.
• If the appliance is placed on a carpeted floor, ensure that air can circulate freely between the feet and the floor.

Use

• This appliance is designed for domestic use. It must not be used for purposes other than those for which it was designed.
• Only wash fabrics which are designed to be machine washed. Follow the instructions on each garment label.
• Do not overload the appliance. Follow the instructions in the instruction book.
• Make sure that all pockets are empty. Objects such as coins, safety pins, pins and screws can cause extensive damage.
• Do not machine wash garments saturated with petroleum, methylated spirits, trichlorethylene, etc. If such fluids have been used to remove stains prior to washing, wait until they have completely evaporated from the fabric before placing garments in the appliance.
• Place small items such as socks, belts, etc. in a cloth bag or pillowcase to prevent them getting trapped between the drum and the tub.

• Use only the recommended quantities of fabric softener. An excessive amount could damage the laundry.

• Leave the porthole door slightly ajar when the appliance is not in use. This preserves the door seal and prevents the formation of musty smells.
  • Always check that water has emptied out before opening the door. If not, drain the water following the instructions in the instruction book.

• Always unplug the appliance and shut the water tap after use.

General safety

• Repairs to the machine must be carried out only by qualified personnel. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons could cause serious danger. Contact your local Service Centre.
• Never pull the power supply cable to remove the plug from the socket; always take hold of the plug itself.
• During high temperature wash programmes the door glass may get hot. Do not touch it!

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.
• The packaging components (e.g. plastic film, polystyrene) can be dangerous to children - danger of suffocation! Keep them out of children's reach.
• Keep all detergents in a safe place out of children's reach.
• Make sure that children or pets do not climb into the drum. To avoid this the machine incorporates a special feature. To activate this device, rotate the button (without pressing it) inside the door clockwise until the groove is horizontal. If necessary use a coin.

Disposal

Packaging materials

The materials marked with the symbol are recyclable.

PE<=polyethylene
PS<=polystyrene
PP<=polypropylene

This means that they can be recycled by disposing of them properly in appropriate collection containers.

To disable this device and restore the possibility of closing the door, rotate the button anti-clockwise until the groove is vertical.

- 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.

Machine

Use authorised disposal sites for your old appliance. Help to keep your country tidy!

Tips for environmental protection

To save water, energy and to help protect the environment, we recommend that you follow these tips:

• Normally soiled laundry may be washed without prewashing in order to save detergent, water and time (the environment is protected too!).

• The machine works more economically if it is fully loaded, but do not overload it (see maximum moad on page 30).

• With adequate pre-treatment, stains and limited soiling can be removed; the laundry can then be washed at a lower temperature, so saving energy.

• Measure out detergent according to the water hardness, the degree of soiling and the quantity of laundry being washed.

Diagram of a pipe fitting with a curved arrow indicating direction (no text or symbols)

The inlet hose must not be lengthened. If it is too short and you do not wish to move the tap, you will have to purchase a new, longer hose specially designed for this type of use.

Water drainage

The end of the drain hose can be positioned in three ways:

Hooked over the edge of a sink using the plastic hose guide supplied with the machine. In this case, make sure the end cannot come unhooked when the machine is emptying.

This could be done by tying it to the tap with a piece of string or attaching it to the wall.

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.

The manufacturer declines any responsibility for damage or injury through failure to comply with the above safety precaution. Should the appliance power supply cable need to be replaced, this should be carried out by our Service Centre.

Please ensure that when the appliance is installed the power supply cable is easily accessible.

Your new washing machine

This new washing machine, which is fitted with the Jet system, patented Zanussi, meets all modern needs for effective treatment of laundry with low water, energy and detergent consumption.

Further savings are achieved by washing small loads of laundry, since water and electricity consumption is proportional to the quantity and type of laundry being washed.

• The possibility of selecting the temperature, spin speed and all the options offered by this washing machine gives you truly “customised” washing.
• The DELAY START option allows you to delay starting of the wash programme to any time of day, so allowing you for instance to make use of overnight economy electricity tariffs.
• The programme progress display shows the programme steps selected and the programme phase which is running.
• The special wool programme with its new delicate wash system treats your woollens with extreme care.
• The balance control device ensures the machine is stable during the spin.

i Washing hints

Sorting the laundry

Follow the wash code symbols on each garment label and the manufacturer's washing instructions.

Sort the laundry as follows:

whites, coloureds, synthetics, delicates, woollens.

Temperatures

90° for normally soiled white cottons and linen (e.g. tea cloths, towels, tablecloths, sheets...)

60° for normally soiled, colour fast garments (e.g. shirts, night dresses, pyjamas....) in linen, cotton or synthetic fibres and for lightly soiled white cotton (e.g. underwear).

Frio (cold) for delicate items (e.g. net curtains),

30^-40^ mixed laundry including synthetic fibres and woollens.

Before loading the laundry

Never wash whites and coloureds together. Whites may lose their “whiteness” in the wash.

New coloured items may run in the first wash; they should therefore be washed separately the first time.

Make sure that no metal objects are left in the laundry (e.g. hair clips, safety pins, pins).

Button up pillowcases, close zip fasteners, hooks and poppers. Tie any belts or long tapes.

Remove persistent stains before washing. Rub particularly soiled areas with a special detergent or detergent paste.

Treat curtains with special care. Remove hooks or tie them up in a bag or net.

Maximum loads

Recommended loads are indicated in the programme charts.

General rules:

Cotton, linen: drum full but not too tightly packed;

Synthetics: drum no more than half full;

Delicate fabrics and woollens: drum no more than one third full.

Washing a maximum load makes the most efficient use of water and energy.

For heavily soiled laundry, reduce the load size.

Laundry weights

The following weights are indicative:

bathrobe 1200 g

napkin 100 g

quilt cover 700 g

sheet 500 g

pillow case 200 g

tablecloth 250 g

towelling towel 200 g

tea cloth 100 g

night dress 200 g

ladies' briefs 100 g

man's work shirt 600 g

man's shirt 200 g

man's pyjamas 500 g

blouse 100 g

men's underpants 100 g

Removing stains

Stubborn stains may not be removed by just water and detergent. It is therefore advisable to treat them prior to washing.

Blood: treat fresh stains with cold water. For dried stains, soak overnight in water with a special detergent then rub in the soap and water.

Oil based paint: moisten with benzine stain remover, lay the garment on a soft cloth and dab the stain; treat several times.

Dried grease stains: moisten with turpentine, lay the garment on a soft surface and dab the stain with the fingertips and a cotton cloth.

Rust: oxalic acid dissolved in hot water or a rust removing product used cold. Be careful with rust stains which are not recent since the cellulose structure will already have been damaged and the fabric tends to hole.

Mould stains: treat with bleach, rinse well (whites and fast coloureds only).

Grass: soap lightly and treat with bleach (whites and fast coloureds only).

Ball point pen and glue: moisten with acetone (*), lay the garment on a soft cloth and dab the stain.

Lipstick: moisten with acetone as above, then treat stains with methylated spirits. Remove any residual marks from white fabrics with bleach.

Red wine: soak in water and detergent, rinse and treat with acetic or citric acid, then rinse. Treat any residual marks with bleach.

Ink: depending on the type of ink, moisten the fabric first with acetone (*), then with acetic acid; treat any residual marks on white fabrics with bleach and then rinse thoroughly.

Tar stains: first treat with stain remover, methylated spirits or benzine, then rub with detergent paste.

(*) do not use acetone on artificial silk.

Detergents and additives

Good washing results also depend on the choice of detergent and use of the correct quantities to avoid waste and protect the environment. Although biodegradable, detergents contain substances which, in large quantities, can upset the delicate balance of nature.

The choice of detergent will depend on the type of fabric (delicates, woollens, cottons, etc.), the colour, washing temperature and degree of soiling.

All commonly available washing machine detergents may be used in this appliance:

– powder detergents for all types of fabric,
- powder detergents for delicate fabrics (60°C max) and woollens,
– liquid detergents, preferably for low temperature wash programmes (60°C max) for all types of fabric, or special for woollens only.

The detergent and any additives must be placed in the appropriate compartments of the dispenser drawer before starting the wash programme.

If using concentrated powder or liquid detergents, a programme without prewash must be selected.

The washing machine incorporates a recirculation system which allows an optimal use of the concentrated detergent.

Pour liquid detergent into the dispenser drawer compartment marked just before starting the programme.

Any fabric softener or starching additives must be poured into the compartment marked before starting the wash programme.

Follow the product manufacturer's recommendations on quantities to use and do not exceed the «MAX» mark in the detergent dispenser drawer.

Quantity of detergent to be used

The type and quantity of detergent will depend on the type of fabric, load size, degree of soiling and hardness of the water used.

Water hardness is classified in so-called “degrees” of hardness. Information on hardness of the water in your area can be obtained from the relevant water supply company, or from your local authority.

Follow the product manufacturers' instructions on quantities to use.

Use less detergent if:

– you are washing a small load,
– the laundry is lightly soiled,
– large amounts of foam form during washing.

Degrees of water hardness

Level Characteristic		Degrees
		German °dH	French °T.H.
1	soft	0-7	0-15
2	medium	8-14	16-25
3	hard	15-21	26-37

START/PAUSA

12. How to change a programme during its cycle

Before you make any change, you must pause the washing machine by pressing the START/PAUSE button.

It is possible to change any phase before the programme carries it out.

Changing the type of fabric or temperature is possible, obviously, only during the washing phase. When you make a change in these two parameters, the washing machine will resume the cycle from the beginning.

If it is necessary to drain the water in order to change the programme in progress, proceed as follows:

• PAUSE the machine by pressing the START/PAUSE button;
• press the RESET (ANUL.) button repeatedly, until only the DRAIN (DESCARGA) light remains lit;

- press the START/PAUSE button again.

When the water has been drained, the display shows a blinking zero. You may now select a new programme and press the START/PAUSE button to start it.

13. How to cancel a programme during its cycle

To cancel a programme that is being carried out, first pause the washing machine by pressing the START/PAUSE button, then press the RESET (ANUL.) button repeatedly, until the display shows three blinking dashes.

14. How to open the door during the cycle of a programme

You can open the door, after having set the washing machine to PAUSE, provided the following conditions exist:

• the washing machine is not in the heating phase beyond 40^ ;
  • the level of the water is not high;
  • the drum is not turning.

If these requirements are met, when you pause the washing machine, the DOOR LOCKED light goes out and the door can be opened.

Should it not be possible to open the door, and should it be absolutely necessary to do so, switch the machine off by pressing the ON/OFF button.

After approximately 2 minutes, you can open the door.

Pay attention to the level and temperature of the water in the washing machine!

When you close the door and press the ON/OFF button again, the washing machine will resume the programme from the point where it had been interrupted.

15. End of programme

At the end of the programme, the washing machine stops automatically, gives an audible signal, and displays a blinking zero.

If you had selected the RINSE HOLD (AGUA EN LA CUBA) option, the START/PAUSE button light flashes to indicate that the water must be drained. The display shows a steadily lit zero.

When the programme has been completed, a blinking zero appears on the display and the audible signal is given.

The DOOR LOCKED light goes out at once.

Press the SKIP/RESET button repeatedly to erase the programme that has just been carried out. If you omit to do this, the next time you switch the washing machine on, the blinking zero will appear on the display and you will hear the audible signal.

Note: when you switch the machine on, if you must erase the previously performed programme, it is also sufficient to press the FABRIC (TEJIDOS) button and select a new programme.

Press the ON/OFF button to switch the machine off. The relevant light will go out.

Remove the laundry from the washing machine.

Check whether the drum is completely empty, by rotating it with your hand. The purpose of this is to prevent any items of laundry from remaining accidentally in the drum, where they might get damaged in a subsequent wash (e.g. by shrinking) or bleed colour into another load of laundry.

We advise you to close the water supply tap and disconnect the plug from the socket.

Leave the door ajar in order to air the washing machine.

5. Water inlet filter

If you notice that the machine is taking longer to fill, check that the filter in the water inlet hose is not blocked.

Turn off the water tap.

Unscrew the hose from the tap.

Clean the filter with a stiff brush.

Screw the hose back onto the tap.

6. Emergency emptying out

If the machine is unable to drain, proceed as follows to empty out the machine:

• Pull out the plug from the power socket.
• Close the water tap.
• If necessary, wait until the water has cooled down.
• Place a bowl on the floor under the filter and place the end of the emergency emptying hose into the bowl. The water should drain by gravity into the bowl. When the bowl is full, screw the cap on again. Empty the bowl. Repeat the procedure until water stops flowing out.

- Clean the filter if necessary.

- At the end screw the filter again.

7. The dangers of freezing

If the machine is exposed to temperatures below 0^ C, certain precautions should be taken.

• Turn off the water tap.
• Unscrew the inlet hose.
• Place the end of the inlet hose and that of the emergency emptying hose in a bowl placed on the floor and let the water drain out.
• Screw the water inlet hose back on and put the emergency emptying hose back in its place after having screwed the cap on again.

When you intend to start the machine up again, make sure that the room temperature is above 0^ C.

Something not working?

Problems which you can resolve yourself.

During machine operation it is possible that one of the following alarm codes appears on the display:

• E10: problem with the water supply
• E20: problem with water draining
• E40: door open

Once the problem has been eliminated, press the START/PAUSE button to restart the programme. If after all checks, the problem persists, contact your local Service Centre.

Problem Possible cause
The machine does not start up:	The door is not firmly closed. (E40)The machine is not plugged in or there is no power at the socket.The main fuse has blown.The START/PAUSE button has not been depressed.The DELAY START (ARRANQUE RETARDADO) option has been selected.
The machine does not fill:	The water tap is closed. (E10)The inlet hose is squashed or kinked. (E10)The filter in the inlet hose is blocked. (E10)The door is not properly closed. (E40)
The machine fills then empties immediately:	The end of the drain hose is too low. Refer to relevant paragraph in “water drainage” section.
The machine does not empty and/or does not spin:	The drain hose is squashed or kinked. (E20)The option AGUA EN LA CUBA has been selected.The drain filter is clogged. (E20)
There is water on the floor:	Too much detergent or unsuitable detergent (creates too much foam) has been used.Check whether there are any leaks from one of the inlet hose 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 is damaged.
Unsatisfactory washing results:	Too little detergent or unsuitable detergent has been used.Stubborn stains have not been treated prior to washing.The correct temperature was not selected.Excessive laundry load.
The machine vibrates or is noisy:	The transit bolts and packing have not been removed.The support feet have not been adjusted.The laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum.Maybe there is very little laundry in the drum.
The door will not open:	The programme is still running, the drum is turning.The door lock has not yet released.The water level is above the bottom edge of the door.The machine is heating the water.
• Spinning starts late or the laundry is not spun enough:	• The electronic unbalance detection device has cut in because the 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 few minutes, the laundry is still not evenly distributed in the drum, the machine will spin at a lower speed or will not spin. If at the end of the programme the laundry is not spun enough, redistribute the load manually and select the spin programme.

Water is not visible in the machine. The machine, which is the result of modern technology, runs in a very economical way with low water consumption. Performance is nevertheless excellent. P1035UK

The machine makes an unusual noise. The machine is fitted with a commutator motor which improves machine performance. P1034UK

If you are unable to identify or solve the problem, contact our service centre. Before telephoning, make a note of the model, serial number and purchase date of your machine: the Service Centre will require this information.
