Your New Washing Machine
i
Your new washing m achine, fitted with the Zanussi “J ET SYSTEM”, m eets all m odern needs for
effective treatm ent of laundry with low water, energy and detergent consum ption.
Even sm all loads are washed “econom ically” because the am ount of water used is regulated
autom atically according to the load and type of fabric.

The “Memory” buttons enable you to store the
wash programmes most used, which are then easy to
recall when needed.

Im p o r t ant
Your machine is fitted with a balance control device,
which ensures the machine is stable during the spin.
If the wash load appears not to have been spun
sufficiently at the end of the wash cycle, because it is
not evenly distributed in the drum, the balance control
device may have operated. It will therefore be necessary
to redistribute the wash load manually and select a spin
programme. For more detailed information see the
section headed "Something Not Working".

This button can be used to select the following options:
- PREWASH: the machine performs a prewash cycle
at 40°C max. and the wash cycle is extended by
about 10 minutes. The prewash cycle ends with a
short spin for the White cotton, Coloured cotton and
Synthetic programmes, and with emptying of the
water only for the Delicate programme.
The COLD position is for a wash with cold water.
5 SPIN SPEED b u t t o n
Press this button to select the required spin speed,

When the RINSE HOLD option is selected, the last
rinse water is not drained to prevent creasing of the
fabrics: the pilot light flashes at the end of the
programme to indicate that the water must be emptied
out.
The corresponding temperature light will come on

Pressing this button selects the following options:
This is a complete programme in its own right, that is
not compatible with any of the other options, except
DELAY START. For use with laundry which is lightly
soiled or which needs freshening up (max. 2 kg). The
machine performs a 30 minute wash cycle at 30°C, with
a final spin at 650 rpm.
- EXTRA RINSE: can be selected with all

is very soft.
This option can only be selected after having
pressed the FABRICS button to select the required
wash programme.
9 TIME TO FIN ISH d isp lay
This display provides the following information:
- SOAK: select this option for heavily soiled laundry.
This function cannot be used with the wool
programme. The machine performs a soak at 40°C
(the drum rotates occasionally) and stops with the

Avoid washing unhemmed or torn items as they may
unravel.
Before washing, empty all pockets of small objects
which may have been left inside (coins, keys, screws
etc). as these could damage the drain pump.

And in w hich fo r m ?
Which d et ergent ?....
Not only are there different types of detergent, but they
are also available in different forms. Whether you chose
a powder or liquid in traditional or compact form is to
own personal choice.
To ensure you obtain the best wash results from your
appliance, it is important to use the right detergent in
your everyday wash, and only detergents recommended
for use in automatic machines.
To maintain the appearance of your clothes and
household textiles and to make them last longer you
should use different types of detergent for different
washes, whether for whites, colours or delicates.
TRADITIONAL POWDERS
Pour the powder directly into the dispenser drawer. Do
not sprinkle powder onto clothes in the machine drum.
TRADITIONAL LIQUIDS
Liquid can be placed in the main wash compartment of
the detergent drawer marked with the symbol
the machine immediately upon placing the detergent in
the dispenser drawer.
Alternatively the detergent is measured into the
specially designed dosing device* which should be
placed on top of the laundry, and at the back of the
machine drum.
WHITES
We recommend the Ariel product
range which is biological and
designed to provide excellent
cleaning and stain removal even
at low temperatures.
, start
NON BIOLOGICAL
If you prefer to use a non
biological detergent, which does
not contain enzymes we
recommend Fairy. Fairy provides
good cleaning and stain removal.
COMPACT POWDERS AND LIQUIDS
Compact detergents (or concentrates as they are also
known) are available in liquid or powder form, and
generally require a smaller dosage. Follow the
manufacturer’s instructions to ensure the most
economical usage. Pour the detergent directly into the
dispenser drawer, or alternatively measure the detergent
into the specially designed dosing device* which should
be placed on top of the laundry, and at the back of the
machine drum.
COLOUREDS
For coloured items you should use a
detergent which is designed to clean
while maintaining the original colour.
Ariel Color does not contain bleach
and therefore helps to preserve
colours.
* If you use a dosing device in a washer dryer,
please ensure the dosing device/ball is removed
before carrying out a drying programme.
DELICATE ITEMS
FABRIC CONDITIONERS
When washing delicates such as
woollens, you should use a product
which is specially designed to care for
fine fabrics.
These are ideal for improving ‘softness’, and also
reduce static cling on synthetics and make ironing
easier. They are available in two types:
Dreft Automatic is suitable for
woollens and other delicates.
For example Lenor liquid fabric
softener, for use in the washing
machine/washer dryer. The
liquid fabric softener should be
poured into the compartment
LAUNDRY BLEACH
For additional stain removal you may
wish to use a product such as Ace
Gentle Bleach which is used in addition
to your chosen detergent. Ace is
suitable for all washable fabrics
including silks, woollens and coloureds.
marked with the symbol
.
Follow the manufacturer’s dosage
instructions and never exceed the
MAX level.
Bounce conditioning sheets for use
in a tumble dryer. We recommend
the conditioning sheets are pinned
(using a safety pin) to an article
of laundry and placed in the
tumble dryer.

Det ergent q u ant it ies
As the Jetsystem is flexible and adjusts water intake according to wash load size it is not possible to give you exact
recommandations as to the amount of detergent that should be used for any one wash.
Therefore we recommend that you use approximately 1/3 less than the detergent manufacturer recommends on the
packet or bottle, making the appropriate allowances for soft or hard water, and light or heavy soilage of clothes. If you
have judged the amount correctly you should expect to see a soft sudsy liquid during the wash. It is not necessary to
have a head of lather on the water.

Maintenance and Cleaning
Before any maintenance or cleaning is carried out you
must DISCONNECT the appliance from the electricity
supply.
Descaling
The water we normally use contains lime. It is a good
idea to periodically use a water softening powder in the
machine. Do this separately from any laundry washing,
and according to the softening powder manufacturer's
instructions. This will help to prevent the formation of
lime deposits.
Aft er each wash
Leave the door open for a while. This helps to prevent
mould and stagnant smells forming inside the appliance.
Keeping the door open after a wash will also help to
preserve the door seal.
Ex t er nal cleaning
Clean the exterior cabinet of the appliance with soap
and water only, and then dry thoroughly.
Cleaning t he d isp enser d rawer
From time to time the washing powder and additive
dispenser drawer should be cleaned.
Remove the drawer by pressing the catch downwards
and by pulling it out. Flush it out under a tap, to remove
any traces of accumulated powder.
Cleaning t he d rawer recess
Having removed the drawer, use a small brush to clean
P0224
P0225
the recess, ensuring that all washing powder residue is
removed from the upper and lower part of the recess.
Replace the drawer and run the rinse programme for a
few minutes without any clothes in the drum.
P0038

Cleaning t he filt er
The water drain filter
A clean filter is important for the correct functioning of
the machine, and should therefore be cleaned after every
washing programme.
Open the filter door and place a container underneath to
catch any spillage. If the filter is blocked and the
machine is unable to drain you will need to drain the
water manually from the machine at this stage. To do
this, unhook the drain hose from the standpipe or sink
and hold the end of the hose over a bowl on the floor.
The water should drain by gravity into the bowl. When
the bowl is full, hook the hose back up and empty the
bowl. Repeat the procedure until water stops flowing
out.
P0132
P0011
Unscrew and remove the filter.
Clean carefully under a fast running tap.
Warning
When the appliance is in use and depending on the
programme selected there can be hot water in the filter.
Never remove the filter during a wash cycle, always
wait until the appliance has finished the cycle, and is
empty. When replacing the filter, ensure it is securely
retightened so as to stop leaks and young children being
able to remove it.
P0133
P0040
The water inlet filter
If your water is very hard or contains traces of lime
deposit, the water inlet filter may become clogged.
It is therefore a good idea to clean it from time to time.
Turn off the water tap. Unscrew the water inlet hose.
Remove and clean the filter using a hard bristle brush.
Replace the filter and tighten up the inlet hose.
P0041
The d anger s o f 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.
■
Unhook the drain hose from the rear support and
position the end of this hose and that of the inlet
hose in a bowl. Run the draining programme.
■
Disconnect the appliance.
■
Screw the inlet hose and reposition the drain hose.
■
When you intend to start the machine up again,
make sure that the room temperature is above 0°C.

The drainage system pipes are blocked.
■
■
There is water on the floor
Too much detergent or unsuitable detergent has been used (creates too
much foam).
■
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 may be damaged or not securely positioned.
The detergent dispenser drawer or recess is clogged.
The drainage system pipes are blocked.
■
■
■
■
Unsatisfactory washing results
Too little detergent or unsuitable detergent has been used. An
insufficient amount of detergent leaves the laundry looking grey and
causes lime scale to form.
Stubborn stains have not been treated prior to washing
■
■
The correct temperature to suit the wash programme has not been
selected.
■
Too much laundry has been placed in the drum.
■
The machine vibrates when spinning
The internal packing has not been removed.
The machine is in contact with the wall or furniture.
The machine is not level.
The washing load is badly distributed in the drum.

Sym ptom
Possible causes
■
The door will not open
The programme is still running.
The door lock has not yet released (door pilot light on).
The water level in the drum is too high or the machine is heating.
■
■
■
Spinning starts late or the machine
does not spin
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
eventually at a lower speed, if the wash load is not perfectly distributed
in the drum. If, after 15 minutes, the laundry is still not evenly
distributed in the drum, the machine will not spin. In this case,
redistribute the load manually and reselect the spin programme.
■
The machine makes an unusual
noise
The machine is fitted with a type of motor which makes an unusual
noise compared with other traditional motors. This new motor ensures a
softer start and more even distribution of the laundry in the drum when
spinning, as well as increased stability of the machine.
■
No water is visible in the drum
Machines based on modern technology operate very economically
using very little water without affecting performance.
If after the above checks, there is still a fault, call your
local Zanussi Service Force Centre.

wooden floor.
P0850
Sprung wooden floors are particularly susceptible to
vibration. For advice, consult a builder. If possible,
always place the machine on a solid floor.
Sp ecial co nd it io ns
If the floor is carpeted with a deep-pile carpet or
covered with crumbly or soft material, insert a rigid
support base under the feet to prevent noise, vibration or
displacement. The base should protrude a few
centimetres beyond the edges of the machine.
Warning
The machine should NOT be placed on deep pile
carpeting.
Note
Please ensure that when the appliance is installed it is
easily accessible for the engineer in the event of a
breakdown.
