Zanussi-Electrolux TCE7127W - Guide to use the Instruction Book - 1

Your New Tumble Dryer

This tumble dryer will give your wash that soft, relaxed feel whatever the weather. Extremely high quality standards both during development and manufacturing guarantee a long service life for your appliance.

Maximum economy in the operation of your dryer is achieved through very frugal electricity consumption and short drying times.

Energy saving tips

To save energy we recommend that you follow these hints:

  • 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.
  • Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids creasing and saves energy.
  • Clean the filters regularly to avoid excessive drying times and high electricity consumption.
  • Ventilate the room well. The room temperature should not exceed +35°C during drying.

i Hints & Tips on Drying

Before placing articles of laundry in your tumble dryer, check the care labels to ensure they are recommended for tumble drying.

Care Labels you may find on your laundry

☐ may be tumble dried
normal drying (high temperature)
delicate drying (low temperature)
do not tumble dry

Do not overload the appliance.

Here is a list of the approximate weight of some common laundry items.

Sheet 700 to 1000 g

Pillowcase 100 to 200 g

Tablecloth 400 to 500 g

Table Napkin 50 to 100 g

Kitchen Towel 70 to 120 g

Linen Hand Towel 100 to 150 g

Hand Towel 150 to 250 g

Bath Towel 700 to 1000 g

Bathrobe 1000 to 1500 g

Shirt 200 to 300 g

Apron 150 to 200 g

• Always load well spun laundry. The higher the spin speed the lower the electricity consumption and the shorter the drying time.
- DO NOT load dripping wet laundry into the dryer. Roll the article in a towel or spin to remove excess water.
- Close poppers and zips and fasten any buttons.
- Sort the laundry. Separate synthetics from cotton/linens, and dry separately.
- Remove the laundry immediately after the programme has finished.
- Use a fabric conditioning sheet to reduce static. We recommend the sheet is pinned to an article of laundry (using a safety pin).
- Mix the load i.e. large and small articles.
- When drying large items such as sheets, we recommend you periodically stop the dryer to redistribute the load.

DO NOT use the tumble dryer to dry the following:

  • Articles contaminated with inflammable substances e.g. petrol, cleaning solvents, cooking oil, fats or hair lacquer.
  • Woollen and synthetic/wool mixtures unless the item is labelled as suitable for tumble drying.
    • Very delicate articles such as silk.
  • Very large and bulky items such as duvets or sleeping bags.

Maintenance 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. Important: do not use methylated spirit, diluents or similar products.

Cleaning 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.

Zanussi-Electrolux TCE7127W - Cleaning the door - 1

natural_image Diagram of a washing machine with fan and door open, showing internal components (no text or labels)

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 cleaning) is on to remind you this operation.

Zanussi-Electrolux TCE7127W - Cleaning the filters - 2

natural_image Illustration of a hand opening a washing machine with a door handle (no text or symbols visible)

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).

Zanussi-Electrolux TCE7127W - Cleaning the filters - 4

Do not use the appliance without filters.

Cleaning the condenser unit

Clean the condenser when light (Condenser cleaning) 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.

natural_image Illustration of a hand holding a pen writing on a grid-like object, next to a blank screen (no text or symbols)

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

To pull out the condenser, first turn the two red stops downwards and then remove the condenser unit holding it at the handle.

Clean it with a brush and rinse it under the shower if necessary.

Zanussi-Electrolux TCE7127W - Cleaning the condenser unit - 4

natural_image Illustration of a hand placing a container into a rack with circular patterns (no text or symbols)

Also clean the outside, removing all fluff.

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.

Zanussi-Electrolux TCE7127W - Cleaning the condenser unit - 5

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

Emptying the water reservoir

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 (Water reservoir full) reminds you this operation.

Proceed as follows:

• Pull out the reservoir
- Turn it upside down and let water flow down
- Re-fit the reservoir

Zanussi-Electrolux TCE7127W - Emptying the water reservoir - 2

natural_image Illustration of hands holding a smartphone with a downward arrow indicating compression (no text or symbols)

The reservoir must be re-inserted correctly.

If this is not done the pilot light comes on during next drying and the programme stops, leaving the laundry damp. The buzzer will sound.

After emptying and inserting the reservoir the "START/PAUSE" 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.

Zanussi-Electrolux TCE7127W - Cleaning the air intake grille - 1

natural_image Line drawing of a simple kitchen appliance with a gau and handle (no text or symbols)

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.

Adjusting the level of conductivity

Water contains, a variable quantity of limestone and mineral salts of which quantities vary according to geographical locations thus varying its conductivity values.

Relevant variations of the conductivity of the water compared to those prefixed by the factory could slightly influence the residual humidity of the laundry at the end of the cycle.

Your dryer allows you to regulate the sensitivity of the drying sensor based on conductivity values of the water by using the following procedure.

To access adjustment mode:

Turn the programme selector dial to switch on the appliance. In selection mode, press simultaneously the buttons 1 and 3.

Press the buttons down until the pilot lights above each ones begin to flash and one of the pilot lights indicating the drying phase lights pooling, or end cycle remains lit.

LED lit ConductivityApproximate value μS/cm
Low < 300
Medium 300 - 600
High > 600

Normally, the appliance is factory-set to the highest level; however, certain models may be configured differently.

Memorizing the new setting:

Simultaneously press the buttons 1 and 3. Press the buttons down until the pilot lights above each ones stop flashing and the buzzer sounds.

Should the appliance be moved, it must be transported vertically.

Positioning

It is recommended that, for your convenience, the machine is positioned close to your washing machine.

The tumble dryer must be installed in a clean place, where dirt does not build up.

Air must be able to circulate freely all round the appliance. Do not obstruct the front ventilation grille or the air intake grilles at the back of the machine.

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.

The feet must never be removed.

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.

Important

The hot air emitted by the tumble dryer can reach temperatures of up to 60irc C. The appliance must therefore not be installed on floors which are not resistant to high temperatures.

When operating the tumble dryer, the room temperature must not be lower than +5°C and higher than +35°C, as it may affect the performance of the appliance.

Stacking kit (optional accessory)

It should be possible to stack your new dryer on top of a front loading washing machine with a worktop depth between 48 and 60 cm.

Read carefully the instructions supplied with the kit. Please contact your local Service Force Centre for further advice.
