Frequently Asked Questions - ZDC46130W Zanussi-Electrolux

What should I do if the dryer does not start?

Check the mains plug is plugged in and the fuse is working. Ensure the loading door is fully closed. Press the START/PAUSE button again. If the problem persists, contact the Service Centre.

Why is the drying cycle taking too long?

Possible causes: clogged lint filter, clogged heat exchanger, overloaded drum, or laundry insufficiently spun. Clean filters and condenser, reduce load, and ensure laundry is well-spun. Also check that the Delicate option is not used with a full load.

How often should I clean the filters?

Clean the lint filters after each drying cycle. The Filter light reminds you. Use a damp cloth; for detergent residue, clean with warm water and a brush.

What does the Condenser light mean?

The Condenser light illuminates every 80 cycles to remind you to clean the condenser unit. Follow the cleaning procedure in the manual to maintain drying performance.

Can I stack my dryer on top of a washing machine?

Yes, but you must use the stacking kit (optional accessory) designed for this purpose. The washing machine must have a cover depth between 48 and 60 cm. Follow the kit instructions carefully.

What items should not be tumble dried?

Do not tumble dry items that have been in contact with flammable solvents (petrol, dry cleaning fluid), items with rubber foam, cushions/quilts (heat accumulation), or delicate items like wool, silk, net curtains, and nylon tights. Check garment labels.

How do I reverse the door?

Door reversal must be carried out by qualified personnel. Contact the nearest Service Centre to perform this operation. It is not possible if the dryer is installed behind a door that opens in the opposite direction.

What is the maximum load capacity?

Maximum load is 6 kg for cotton and 3 kg for synthetics. Do not overload, as it affects drying performance and energy consumption.

Why does the loading door not close?

Check that the fine strainer is in place and the large mesh filter is locked correctly. If they are not properly installed, the door will not close. Reinstall the filters.

How do I clean the condenser?

Open the small door at the lower front, turn the two red stops downwards, pull out the condenser by the handle. Clean the plates with a damp cloth (do not use sharp objects). Reinsert, turn stops upwards, and close the door. Do not operate without the condenser.

Drying hints

Before loading the laundry

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 on drying required.
• Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids creasing and saves energy.
• Avoid drying dark clothes with light coloured

fluffy items such as towels as they could attract the fluff.

• The laundry must be thoroughly spun before tumble drying.
• 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 on your washing machine).
• Knitted textiles (knitted underwear) may shrink a little during drying. Please do not overdry items of this type. It is advisable to allow for shrinkage when choosing the size of new purchases.
• You can also put starched items into your dryer. However, to achieve the desired starched effect, choose the programme “iron dry”. To remove any starch residues, wipe out the internal drum after drying with a moist cloth and then rub it dry.
• To avoid a static charge when drying is completed, use either a fabric softener when you are washing the laundry or a fabric conditioner specifically for tumble dryers.
• Remove the laundry when the dryer has finished drying.
• If individual items are still damp after drying,

set a brief post-drying time, but at least 30 minutes. This will be necessary particularly for multilayered items (e.g. collars, pockets, etc.).

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.

To avoid laundry becoming tangled: close zips, button up duvet covers and tie loose ties or ribbons (e.g. of aprons).

Turn items with double-layered fabrics inside out (e.g. with cotton lined anoraks, the cotton layer should be outermost). These fabrics will then dry better.

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.

Modifying the pro- gramme

To change a programme which is running, first cancel it by turning the programme selector dial to "Off". Select the new programme and press the Start button.

Care and cleaning

You must DISCONNECT the appliance from the electricity supply, before you can carry out any cleaning or maintenance work.

External cleaning

Use only soap and water and then dry thoroughly.

Cleaning the door

Open the door.

Clean periodically the interior part of the door to remove any fluff from the seals around the filter. Accurate cleaning ensures correct drying.

⚠️ Important: do not use methylated spirit, diluents or similar product.

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 light Filter is on to remind you of this operation.

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. After a while, a withish patina due to detergent residue on laundry forms on the filters.

When this occurs, clean the filters with warm water using a brush. 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).

Important:

Do not use the appliance without filters.

Cleaning the condenser unit

1. Clean the condenser when light Condenser comes on.

The condenser is situated at the lower part of the cabinet behind a small door. To open the door, push the catch as per picture.

During the drying cycle or at the end, it is normal for water to be present on the surface of the condenser insertion.

1. To pull out the condenser, first turn the two red stops downwards.

1. Then remove the condenser unit holding it at the handle.

1. Clean the rubber seal round the condenser cabinet and in the inner part of the small door with a damp cloth.

⚠️ Important:

Do not use pointed objects or utensils to clean the spaces between the plates, as this could damage the condenser and make it permeable.

Re-fit the condenser, turn the red stops upwards and close the door.

⚠️ Important:

Do not use this appliance if the condenser has not been fitted.

Emptying the water reservoir

Important:

Water extracted from the laundry condenses inside the machine and is collected in a reservoir. The reservoir must be emptied after each drying cycle to ensure efficient operation when the machine is next used. The pilot light Empty Tank reminds you of this operation.

Proceed as follows:

ZANUSSI

Electrolux

1. Open the small door at the lower part of the cabinet.

1. Turn the yellow stop upwards.

1. Pull out the reservoir.

1. Open the small cover and let water flow down.
2. Close the small cover and re-insert the reservoir correctly.

1. Push it until it clicks and turn the yellow stop downwards ensure it is firmly locked.
2. Close the small door and press the START/PAUSE button again to allow the programme to continue.

Important:

The reservoir must be re-inserted correctly.

After emptying and inserting the reservoir the START-button has to be depressed again to allow the programme to continue.

Handy tip: The condensed water may be used in a steam iron or to top up a battery, etc. In this case it must be filtered (e.g. through a coffee filter).

Cleaning the air intake grille

Using a vacuum cleaner remove the fluff from the air intake grille at the back of the appliance

Cleaning the drum

When your laundry does not reach the desired degree of dryness, in other words, when it turns out either too dry or too damp, we advise you to clean the inside of the drum with a cloth soaked with vinegar.

This will eliminate the slight patina that has formed in the drum (due to residues of detergent and softeners used in the washing, and to the lime contained in the water), which prevents the probes from detecting the correct degree of dryness.

Something 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 Centre, please carry out the checks listed below.

During machine operation it is possible that the red Start/Pause pilot light flashes to indicate that the machine is not working.

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.
