Maintenance

Check out our tips to prevent many common issues and extend the life of your Zanussi Dryer.

Ensure Proper Installation

Position the dryer close to your washing machine, ensuring it's on a firm, level surface. Avoid obstructing the front ventilation grille or air intake grilles.

Regular Filter Cleaning

Clean the fluff filter after every use. A clogged filter prevents efficient operation and increases fire risk. Ensure the filter is not damaged and is always in place before using the dryer.

Condenser Maintenance

Clean the air condenser unit 3 to 4 times a year, depending on usage frequency, to maintain optimal drying performance.

Prevent Overloading

Adhere to the recommended load sizes as per the programme chart. Overloading reduces drying efficiency and can cause excess wear and tear on the machine.

Empty Water Reservoir

Always empty the water reservoir after each drying cycle. A full or improperly inserted reservoir will halt the drying process and leave clothes damp.
