Frequently Asked Questions - ZDF131 Zanussi-Electrolux

How do I reset the dishwasher to factory settings?

To reset, turn off the dishwasher and then press and hold the Start/Reset button for 3 seconds. The appliance will beep and the program indicator will flash, indicating a reset.

How often should I clean the filter?

Clean the filter after every 2-3 cycles to prevent clogs. Remove the lower basket, twist the filter assembly counterclockwise, rinse under running water, and reassemble.

What type of detergent is recommended?

Use a specialized dishwasher detergent in powder, gel, or tablet form. Avoid hand-washing liquids as they cause excessive suds. For best results, use a multi-functional tablet containing salt and rinse aid.

Why are my dishes not drying properly?

Ensure rinse aid is filled and the setting is correct. Also, use the Extra Dry option if available. Open the door slightly after the cycle to allow steam to escape. Check that the drying system is not blocked.

How do I fix error codes like E1 or E4?

E1 indicates water supply failure; check the tap is open and the hose is not kinked. E4 means overflow; turn off the water and call service. Consult the manual for other codes.

Can I install the dishwasher under a countertop?

The ZDF131 is designed as a freestanding model. For under-counter installation, you would need to remove the top panel and ensure proper ventilation. Check measurements and consult a professional.

How do I load dishes for optimal cleaning?

Place larger items like pots and pans on the bottom rack facing down. Place glasses and cups on the top rack upside down. Avoid blocking spray arms. Load utensils with handles up in the basket.

How do I adjust the water hardness setting?

Refer to the manual to find the water hardness setting. Typically, press and hold the Program button for several seconds, then use the arrow buttons to select the level (1-5) corresponding to your local water hardness. Confirm by pressing start.

What should I do if the dishwasher is not starting?

Check that the door is fully closed and latched. Ensure the appliance is plugged in and the circuit breaker is on. Also, verify that a program is selected and the water supply is open.

How do I descale the dishwasher?

Use a commercial dishwasher descaler or a mixture of vinegar and baking soda. Run a hot cycle with the cleaner in the detergent compartment. Repeat every 3 months if water is hard.

When using tablets that integrate rinse aid, detergent, salt function and other additives:

there is no need to fill up with special salt or rinse aid.

Check whether these detergents are suitable for your water hardness. Follow the manufacturers instructions.

- Set the water hardness to level 1.

IMPORTANT!

If the drying results are not satisfactory we recommend that you:

1. Fill up the rinse aid dispenser with rinse aid.
2. Set the rinse aid dosage to position 2.

If you decide in future to use separated detergents, we advise that you:

• Fill up the salt and rinse aid container.
• Adjust the water hardness setting to the highest level and perform 1 normal washing programme without loading any dishes.
• Adjust the water hardness setting according to the hardness of the water in your area.
• Adjust the rinse aid dosage

Set the water softener

The dishwasher is equipped with a water softener designed to remove minerals and salts from the water supply, which would have a detrimental or adverse effect on the operation of the appliance.

The higher the content of these minerals and salts, the harder your water is.

Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, Clarke degrees, French degrees (°TH)

and mmol/l (millimol per litre - international unit for the hardness of water).

The softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of the water in your area. Your local Water Authority can advise you on the hardness of the water in your area.

Water hardness Adjusting the water hardness setting					Use of salt
Clarke	°TH	mmol/l	manually	electronically
64 - 88	91 - 125	9,0- 12,5	2	level 10	yes
53 - 63	76 - 90	7,6 - 8,9	2	level 9	yes
Water hardness Adjusting the water hardness			setting		Use of salt

Filling with dishwasher salt

CAUTION!

Use only special salt suitable for dishwashers.

Unscrew the cap.

Only before filling with salt for the first time, fill the salt container with water.

Using the funnel provided, pour in the salt until the container is filled with salt.

Remove any trace of salt. Replace the cap tightly turning it clockwise until it stops with a click.

IMPORTANT!

Immediately start a complete programme.

IMPORTANT!

Water will overflow from the container as salt is added.

IMPORTANT!

The salt container will require topping up periodically.

The salt cap has a refill indicator window in the centre in which a green float is clearly visible when there is salt inside the container and almost disappears when the salt has finished.

Filling with rinse aid

Open the lid.

Fill up with rinse aid. The maximum level for filling is indicated by "max"

Clean up any rinse aid which overflows. Close the lid and press until it locks.

Top up the rinse aid indicator (B) becomes clear

! CAUTION!

Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other substances (e.g. dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the appliance.

Adjusting the dosage of rinse aid

Increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on the dishes after washing.

Reduce the dose if there are whitish streaks on the dishes or a bluish film on glassware or knife blades.

Open the lid.

Set the dosage level. (The dose is factory set in position 4).

Close the lid and press until it locks.

Loading cutlery and dishes

Sponges, household cloths and any object that can absorb water may not be washed in the dishwasher.

• Before loading the dishes, you should:

• Remove all left over food and debris.
• Soften remnants of burnt food in pans

- When loading the dishes and cutlery, please note:

– Dishes and cutlery must not impede the rotation of the spray arms.
- Load hollow items such as cups, glasses, pans, etc. with the opening downwards so

that water cannot collect in the container or a deep base.

– Dishes and items of cutlery must not lie inside one another, or cover each other.
- To avoid damage to glasses, they must not touch.
– Lay small objects in the cutlery basket.

• Plastic items and pans with non stick coatings have a tendency to retain water drops; these items will not dry as well as porcelain and steel items.
• Light items (plastic bowls etc.) must be loaded in the upper basket and arranged so they do not move.

For washing in the dishwasher the following cutlery and dishes are not suitable: are of limited suitability:

• Cutlery with wooden, horn, china or mother-of-pearls handles.
• Plastic items that are not heat resistant.
• Older cutlery with glued parts that are not temperature resistant.
• Bonded cutlery items or dishes.
• Pewter or copper items.
• Lead crystal glass.
  • Steel items prone to rusting.
• Wooden platters.

• Items made from synthetics fibres.

• Only wash stoneware in the dishwasher if it is specially marked as being dishwasher-safe by the manufacturer.

• Glazed patterns may fade if machine washed frequently.
  • Silver and aluminium parts have a tendency to discolour during washing: Residues, e.g. egg white, egg yolk and mustard often cause discolouring and staining on silver. Therefore always clean leftovers from silver immediately, if it is not to be washed straight after use.

Load cutlery. For best results we recommend you to use the cutlery grid provided (if the size and dimensions of the cutlery allow it)

Place knives and other items of cutlery with sharp points or edges with their handles facing upwards. Risk of injury!

Load the lower basket. Arrange serving dishes and large lids around the edge of the basket.

Load upper basket. Light items (plastic bowls etc.) must be loaded in the upper basket and arranged so they do not move.

For taller items, the cup racks can be folded upwards.

If plates are to be loaded in the upper basket: load them starting from the rear positions; tilting them slightly forwards and avoiding the front positions near the door.

Adjusting the height of the upper basket

If washing very large plates you can load them in the lower basket after moving the upper basket to the higher position.

Maximum height of the dishes in:

upper basket lower basket

With upper basket raised 20 cm 31 cm

With upper basket lowered 24 cm 27 cm

Move the front runner stops (A) of the upper basket outwards and slide the basket out.

Refit the basket in the higher position and replace the stops (A) in their original position.

IMPORTANT!

When the basket is in the higher position you will not be able to use the cup racks.

Use of detergent

IMPORTANT!

Only use detergents suitable for dishwashers.

Open the lid.

Observe the manufacturer's dosing and storage recommendations.

Fill in the detergent in compartment A.

Observe the dosing levels.

For programmes with prewash add an additional detergent dose in compartmentB.

When using detergent tablets: place detergent tablets in compartment A.

Close the lid.

Unloading the dishwasher

• Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The dishes should therefore be allowed to cool down before removing from the appliance.
• Empty the lower basket first and then the upper one; this will avoid water dripping from the upper basket onto the dishes in the lower one.

• Water may appear on the sides and the door of the dishwasher as the stainless steel will eventually become cooler than the dishes.

CAUTION!

When the washing programme has finished, it is recommended that the dishwasher is unplugged and the water tap turned off.

Care and cleaning

Cleaning the filters

IMPORTANT!

NEVER use the dishwasher without filters. In-correct repositioning and fitting of the filters will produce poor washing results.

Clean filters A, B and C thoroughly under running water.

Turn the handle about 1/4 turn anticlockwise and remove filters B and C.

Remove filter A from the base of the washing compartment.

Put the flat filter A back in the base of the washing compartment and ensure that it fits perfectly under the two guidesD.
Replace the filters and lock by turning the handle clockwise to the stop.

Cleaning the spray arms

NEVER try to remove the spray arms.

If residues of soil have clogged the holes in the spray arms, remove them with a cocktail stick.

External cleaning

Clean the external surfaces of the machine and control panel with a damp soft cloth. If necessary use only neutral detergents. Never use

abrasive products, scouring pads or solvent (acetone, trichloroethylene etc....).

Internal cleaning

Ensure that the seals around the door, the detergent and rinse aid dispensers are cleaned regularly with a damp cloth.

We recommend every 3 months to run the wash programme for heavy soiled dishes using detergent but without dishes.

Prolonged periods of non-operation

If you are not using the machine for any prolonged period of time you are advised to:

1. Unplug the appliance and then turn off the water.
2. Leave the door ajar to prevent the formation of any unpleasant smells.
3. Leave the inside of the machine clean.

Environmental concerns

Packaging material

The packaging materials are environmentally friendly and can be recycled. The plastic components are identified by markings, e.g. >PE<, >PS<, etc. Please dispose of the packaging materials in the appropriate container at the community waste disposal facilities.

CAUTION!

When a unit is no longer being used:

• Pull the plug out of the socket.
• Cut off the cable and plug and dispose of them.

Frost precautions

Avoid placing the machine in a location where the temperature is below 0° C. If this is unavoidable, empty the machine, close the appliance door, disconnect the water inlet pipe and empty it.

Moving the machine

If you have to move the machine (moving house etc.....):

1. Unplug it.
2. Turn the water tap off.
3. Remove the water inlet and discharge hoses.
4. Pull the machine out together with the ho- ses.

Avoid over tilting the machine during transportation.

Installation

WARNING!

Any electrical and/or plumbing work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician and/or plumber or competent person.

Water connection

WARNING!

The dishwasher must not be connected to open water appliances or instantaneous water heat-

ers. This dishwasher must be fed with cold water.

WARNING!

Only use, for connection to the water mains, new hose-set; old hose-set must not be reused.

CAUTION!

If the machine is connected to new pipes or pipes which have not been used for a long time, you should run the water for a few minutes before connecting the inlet hose.

Inlet hose

Connect the inlet hose to a water tap with an external thread of 3/4.

The inlet hose can be turned either to the left or the right to suit the installation by means of the locknut. The locknut must be correctly fitted to avoid water leaks.

Drain hose

Connect drain hose to the sink. Secure it with the supplied hose clamp.

Required height: 30 to 100 cm above bottom of the dishwasher.

Ensure that the hoses are not kinked, crushed or entangled.

When connecting the drain hose to an under sink trap spigot, the entire plastic membrane (A) must be removed. Failure to remove all the membrane will result in food particles building up over time eventually blocking the dishwasher drain hose spigot.

If you use a drain hose extension the total length should not be longer than 4 metres. Likewise the internal diameter of the couplings used for connections to the waste outlet must be no smaller than the diameter of the hose provided.

Electrical connection

CAUTION!

Safety standards require the appliance to be earthed.

Prior to using the appliance for the first time, ensure that the rated voltage and type of supply on the rating plate match that of the supply where the appliance is to be installed.

The fuse rating is also to be found on the rating plate.

Always plug the mains plug into a correctly installed shockproof socket. Multi-way plugs, connectors and extension cables must not be used.

This could constitute a fire hazard through overheating.

If necessary, have the domestic wiring system socket replaced. In case that the electrical ca-

ble has to be replaced, contact your local Service Force centre.

The plug must be accessible after the appliance has been installed.

Never unplug the appliance by pulling on the cable. Always pull the plug.

The manufacturer accepts no liability for failure to observe the above safety precautions.

Fitting under a counter

By removing the dishwasher's worktop, you can install it under a close fitting sink unit or a pre-existing top.

Be sure that once the appliance has been installed, it is easily accessible for the service engineer in the event that a repair is required.

Levelling

Good levelling is essential for correct closure and sealing of the door.

When the appliance is correctly levelled, the door will not catch on either side of the cabinet.
