Zanussi ZWQ 5100 - Manual (Page 10)

Drainage
Fit the U-piece on the drain-
age hose. Place everything
in a drainage point (or in a
sink) at a height of between
70 and 100 cm. Ensure it is
positioned securely. Air
must be able to enter the end
of the hose, to avoid any risk
of siphoning.
The drain hose must never be stretched. If it is too short,
contact an engineer.
Electrical connection
This washing machine must only be connected in single-
phased 230 V. Check the fuse size: 13 A for 230 V. The
appliance must not be connected with an extension lead

or multi-plug adaptor. Ensure that the plug is earthed and
that it is in accordance with current regulations.
Positioning
Position the appliance on a flat and hard surface in a ven-
tilated location. Ensure the appliance does not come into
contact with the wall or other furniture. Accurate levelling
avoids vibrations, noise and prevents the appliance from
moving when running.

Protecting the environment
To save water and energy and therefore help protect
the environment, we recommend the following:
• Whenever possible, use the appliance at full capacity
and avoid partial loads.
• Only use the prewash and soak programmes for heavily
soiled items.
• Use an appropriate amount of detergent for the hard-
ness of the water, the size of the load and how soiled
the washing is.
