What To Do If - Zanussi ZTE 273 User Manual

The reservoir must be emptied after each drying
cycle to ensure efficient operation when the ma-
chine is next used. The Bac plein (Water Reser-
voir) light reminds you to perform this operation.
1. Pull out the reser-
voir
Important! The reservoir must be re-inser-
ted correctly.
If this is not done the pilot light Bac plein (Wa-
ter Reservoir) comes on during next drying and
the programme stops, leaving the laundry damp.
The buzzer will sound.
After inserting the reservoir press the Marche/
Arrêt (Start/Pause) button again to allow the
programme to continue.

Possible cause

Loading door is open.
Have you pressed the Marche/Arrêt
(Start/Pause) button?
Wrong programme selected.
Lint filters clogged.
Fluff filter clogged.
Heat exchanger clogged with lint.
Overloading of laundry.
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 cof-
fee filter).
Cleaning the drum
Caution! Do not use abrasives or steel
wool to clean the drum.
Lime in the water or cleaning agents may
form a barely visible lining on the inside of
the drum. The degree to which the laundry has
been dried is then no longer detected reliably.
The laundry is damper than expected when re-
moved from the appliance.
Use a standard domestic cleaner (e.g. vinegar-
based cleaner) to wipe down the inside of the
drum and drum ribs.
Clean control panel and housing
Caution! Do not use furniture cleaners or
aggressive cleaning agents to clean the
machine.
Use a damp cloth to wipe down the control
panel and housing.
Plug in at mains socket. Check fuse
in fuse box (domestic installation).
Close loading door.
Press the Marche/Arrêt (Start/
Pause) button again.
Select a different programme the
next time you dry (see "Programme
overview" chapter).
Clean lint filters.
Clean fluff filter.
Clean heat exchanger.

umes.
