Care And Cleaning - Zanussi ZKN 7124 User Manual

Caution! Do not use a dosing device/ball when
carrying out a washing and drying programme.
1. Load the laundry and add detergent and fabric soft-
ener.
2. Switch the machine on by turning the selector dial to
the set washing programme/fabric.
3. Select the required options by pressing the relevant
buttons.
If possible, do not select a spin speed lower than
that proposed by the appliance to avoid too long a
drying time therefore saving energy.
In any case the reduction of the spin speed is only
possible after selecting drying.
The lowest values you can select are 900 r.p.m. for
cottons and synthetics and 700 r.p.m. for delicate
fabrics.
Fluff in the fabrics
During the WASHING AND/OR DRYING PHASE, certain
types of fabric, such as sponge, wool, sweatshirt, could
release fluff.
The released fluff could stick to the fabrics during the next
cycle.
This drawback increases with technical fabrics.
To prevent the fluff in your clothes, it is recommended:
• To do not wash dark fabrics after you washed and dried
light colored fabrics (new sponge, wool, sweatshirt es-
pecially) and vice versa.
• To air-dry this type of fabrics when they are washed the
first time.

Care and cleaning

Warning! You must DISCONNECT the appliance
from the electricity supply, before you can carry out
any cleaning or maintenance work.
Descaling
The water we use normally contains lime. It is a good idea
to periodically use a water softening powder in the ma-
chine. Do this separately from any laundry washing, and
according to the softening powder manufacturer's instruc-
tions. This will help to prevent the formation of lime de-
posits.
