Frequently Asked Questions - ZDC5350W Zanussi-Electrolux

How do I clean the lint filter on my ZDC5350W?

Open the door and pull out the lint filter located at the bottom of the door opening. Remove the lint by hand or with a soft brush, then rinse the filter under running water if necessary. Let it dry completely before reinserting.

Why does my Zanussi-Electrolux dryer leave clothes damp?

Check if the lint filter is clogged. Ensure the water tank is not full (if using condensation). Also verify that the selected program matches the fabric type and load size. Overloading can cause uneven drying.

How to empty the water tank of the ZDC5350W?

Pull out the water tank located at the bottom right of the dryer. Empty the water into a sink and replace the tank securely. The tank must be emptied after each drying cycle to ensure proper operation.

What is the maximum load capacity of this dryer?

The maximum drying capacity is 5 kg for cotton and synthetics. Do not exceed this limit to avoid poor drying performance and potential damage.

Can I install the dryer on top of a washing machine?

Yes, the ZDC5350W can be stacked on a compatible Zanussi-Electrolux washing machine using a stacking kit (sold separately). Ensure both appliances are securely fastened and level.

How often should I clean the condenser?

Clean the condenser every 6 months or after approximately 30 drying cycles. Refer to the manual for detailed steps on removing and rinsing the condenser unit.

What does the anti-crease function do?

The anti-crease function periodically turns the drum after the drying cycle ends to prevent wrinkles from setting in. It lasts up to 60 minutes and can be deactivated if desired.

Is the ZDC5350W energy efficient?

This model has an energy efficiency class of approximately C. While not the most efficient, following proper usage (full loads, clean filters) can help reduce energy consumption.

How do I activate the child lock?

Press and hold the Child Lock button (if available) or a combination of buttons as indicated in the manual. Typically, it locks all buttons except the power button to prevent accidental changes.

Where can I find spare parts for my Zanussi-Electrolux dryer?

Spare parts can be ordered from authorized Zanussi-Electrolux service centers or online parts retailers. Use the model number ZDC5350W to find correct parts like filters, belts, and heating elements.

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.

In the interest of the environment

• Materials marked with the symbol 📊 are recyclable.
• Check with your local Council or Environmental Health Office to see if there are facilities in your area for re-cycling this appliance.
• When the appliance is to be scrapped, cut off the power supply cable and make the door closing device unusable to prevent young children from being trapped inside.
• Help to keep your country tidy - use authorised disposal sites for your old appliance.

How do we help to protect the environment? We use recycled paper!

• The degree of spinning prior to drying.
• The degree of dryness required

Cooling

This position on the programme selector dial can be used to freshen the laundry (e.g. to remove a persistent odour of moth-balls).

Load

It is often difficult to estimate the weight of items to be dried. We therefore recommend that you adopt the following guidelines:

• cotton, linen: drum full but not too tightly packed;

• synthetics: drum no more than half full;

• delicate fabrics: drum no more than one third full.

Operating Sequence

Before using your tumble dryer for the first time, we recommend to place a few damp cloths inside the appliance and dry for 30 minutes.

There may be dust inside a brand new tumble dryer.

Drying

1. Connect the appliance.
2. Open the door (see picture).

Line drawing of a computer monitor with an open screen and a mouse pointer (no text or symbols)

Illustration of hands cleaning a washing machine with cloth (no text or symbols visible)

1. Load the items one at a time, shaking them out loosely.
2. Close the door. Please check the laundry does not get caught between the door and filter.
3. Select the drying programme or time. The lights DRYING, COOLING and END come on. The light of the START/PAUSE button flashes and the display shows the duration of the programme.
4. If required, press the LOW TEMPERATURE button and/or the NO BUZZER button or the QUICK DRY button.
5. Select the DELAY START if required. The selected delay appears on the display for 2 seconds, then the duration of the selected programme is displayed.
6. Press the START/PAUSE button: the corresponding light stops flashing and drying starts. Only the DRYING light stays lit. If you have selected the DELAY START, the machine begins its countdown.

The drum turns alternately in both directions during drying.

All drying programmes end with a 10 minute cooling phase (light COOLING is on).

You may remove the laundry after this phase.

The END, CLOGGED FILTERS and FULL TANK lights illuminate. The display shows a static zero and the buzzer sounds to indicate the end of the cycle.

1. If the laundry is not removed at the end of the cycle, the dryer performs an anti-creasing phase (duration: 30 minutes maximum).

If you do not remove the laundry, the dryer will

stop automatically at the end of the anti-creasing phase.

The END, CLOGGED FILTERS and FULL

TANK lights remain lit and the buzzer sounds for 2 minutes.

The light of the START/PAUSE button goes off and a flashing zero appears on the display.

1. Turn the programme selector dial to "RESET/OFF"; all the lights go out. The appliance is switched off.

Remove the laundry.

If you open and then close the door before turning the programme selector dial to "RESET/OFF", all the lights corresponding to the phases making up the performed programme come on and the display shows the duration of the programme.

After each use

• Clean the filters (see page 11).
  • Empty the water reservoir (see page 12).

Important!

If the drying programme has to be stopped before it reaches the end, we recommend that you turn the programme selector dial to position "Cooling" and wait until the end of this phase before removing the laundry. This will avoid a build-up of heat inside the appliance. To do this first turn the dial to "RESET/OFF" and then to "Cooling" and depress START/PAUSE Button

Modifying the programme

To change a programme which is running, first cancel it by turning the programme selector dial to "RESET/OFF". Select the new programme and press the START/PAUSE Button.

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. Regular cleaning ensures correct drying.

Diagram of a refrigerator with open door and ventilation duct (no text or symbols)

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 CLOGGED FILTERS light reminds you to carry out this operation.

Illustration of a hand inserting a fan into a washing machine (no text or symbols visible)

Line drawing of a washing machine with a door open, showing internal components and a handle (no text or symbols)

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 looses 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).

Line drawing of a washing machine with a door open, showing internal components (no text or symbols)

Do not use the appliance without filters.

Cleaning the condenser unit

Clean the air condenser when CLOGGED CONDENSER light 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.

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

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 as shown below and then remove the condenser unit holding it at the handle.

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

Illustration of a hand using a tool to clean or store items on a stove (no text or symbols visible)

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.

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 FULL TANK light reminds you this operation.

Proceed as follows:

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

Illustration of hands inserting a device into a drawer (no text or symbols visible)

Illustration of hands holding a device with a downward arrow indicating motion (no text or symbols)

The reservoir must be re-inserted correctly.

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

After 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 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.

Cleaning the air intake grille

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

• 89/336 EEC of 3.5.89 (Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive) and subsequent modifications.

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.

Procedure:

Turn the programme selector dial to switch on the appliance

In selection mode press simultaneously the buttons 3 and 6 until «C0» appears on the digits.

Adjusting the level of conductivity:

Press the button 5 sequentially: the level of conductivity is indicated by the lighting of the horizontal hyphens.

Display	Conductivity degree	Approximative value (μS/cm)
CO-	Low	< 300
CO=	Medium	300 - 600
CO≡	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 down the buttons 3 and 6 until the previous drying cycle time appears again on the display 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 60^irc 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 cover's depth between 48 and 60 cm.

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