Warranty Information

Zanussi provides a 12-month guarantee for parts and labour, covering defects from faulty workmanship or materials.

The tumble dryer provides soft, relaxed laundry. It offers economical operation with frugal electricity consumption and short drying times. Key energy-saving tips include loading the machine to its maximum capacity, always using well-spun laundry, avoiding over-drying, cleaning the fluff filter regularly, and ensuring good room ventilation. The dryer should not be used for items contaminated with inflammable substances, certain woollen or synthetic mixtures, very delicate articles like silk, or very large and bulky items such as duvets.

Basic operation involves loading the laundry, selecting the appropriate option (Low Temp. or Cool Tumble), setting the drying time using the selector dial (always turn clockwise), and then allowing the programme to run. Once complete, the machine stops automatically. It is essential to clean the fluff filter after each drying programme.
