How to use a Kandy washing machine

Before using the new machine, be sure to check the correctness of its connection to the house utilities. The hose, which is inlet, is connected to the water supply, a drain hose is included in the sewage system. To start using the washing machine, plug it into an electrical outlet. After that it is necessary to activate the control panel of the Kandy machine and turn the control knob for washing programs to the side. Follow the instructions in accordance with the instructions.

Loading detergents

As practice shows, many housewives before washing pour powder directly onto clothes, directly into the drum of the machine. This method can not be considered correct and competent, since the granules of the powder contain various concentrates that can not only damage or leave a mark on the fabric, but also completely ruin the thing. No wonder manufacturers of household appliances have provided a powder receiver, it is simply necessary with the proper operation of the machine. The powder receiver of the Candy washing machine has several compartments:

1. the compartment marked with a letter B or Roman numeral II is intended for dry or liquid laundry detergent (main wash);
2. powder for preliminary washing is loaded into the middle compartment, marked with the letter A or the Roman numeral I;
3. a small compartment with a flower or star designation is provided for the rinse conditioner. Please note that you can fill in the product even during the washing process, but be sure to rinse the laundry.

If you plan to use a stain remover, bleach, substances that prevent the appearance of scale, they must be poured into the compartment for the main wash.

Do not confuse the compartments, improper distribution of detergents in the compartments can lead to an unsatisfactory outcome of the wash. For example, in no case should you pour bleach into the rinse aid compartment, this will result in rinsing things not just with clean water, but with the addition of an aggressive agent.

Lay the laundry correctly

A very important point, which allows not only to extend the life of the washing machine, but also to ensure the safety of their belongings, is to ensure that the user properly loads the laundry into the drum. When using the washer, a number of rules must be observed.

At the beginning of washing, be sure to sort things by color, type of fabric, degree of contamination. Linen, cotton, wool, synthetic fabrics - all must be washed separately. It is better to wash clothes with difficult to remove stains in the “intensive” mode, while things that are not very dirty can be washed using a basic or quick wash program.

Before loading the laundry, check all pockets on the clothes, suddenly there are foreign objects that could damage the tank of the machine. If things have brooches, fur and other jewelry, it is better to unfasten them before washing. It is also better to fasten all buttons and zippers on the clothes. Wash outer clothing, knitted or terry items need to be turned inside out. Thus, they will retain their appearance and will not deteriorate during the washing process.

Do not exceed the maximum allowable load of clothes into the washer. Otherwise, this will lead to a large load on the machine and to a decrease in washing efficiency.

It is necessary to fill the tray with detergents in the correct dosages, you do not need to pour too much powder or overdo it with rinse aid. This will not make things cleaner, but, on the contrary, will lead to poor-quality washing. Insert laundry in the drum carefully, distributing it evenly. It is better to prevent things from falling in a com, this can lead to a stop of the machine.

Particular attention should be paid to calculating the mass of laundry loaded into the drum. The correct calculation will allow not only to carefully operate the machine, thereby increasing its service life, but also significantly increase the washing efficiency. To make it more convenient for the user to calculate the approximate mass of things, we give information about the average weight of some products:

• a sheet - about 0.5 kg;
• duvet cover - 0.7 kg;
• pillowcase - 0.2 kg;
• men's shirt - up to 0.3 kg;
• children's shirt - up to 0.2 kg;
• bathrobe - about 0.5 kg;
• thin women's blouse - 0.1 kg;
• jeans - about 0.8 kg;
• terry towel - up to 0.7 kg;
• socks (1 pair) - about 0.06 kg;
• warm blanket - approximately 1.3 kg.

These values ​​are averaged, however, it is quite possible to calculate the approximate mass of things put into the machine. Even if you make a mistake half a kilogram, it is not as scary as a total overload.

Launch and end of washing

After loading the laundry in the washer, close the hatch tightly. Check that the detergent tray is well covered. Make sure that the cold water tap in the machine is open. Using the knob to change the washing mode, select the desired one and press the “Start / Stop” button. The washing machine will start. You do not need to observe the ongoing process, the washing machine, at the end of the wash, will notify you of this with a special signal.

When the process is completed, within 1-2 minutes the hatch will still be locked. Wait until it is unlocked, take out clean linen and hang things to dry. To allow the Candy washing machine to dry, leave the sunroof and detergent drawer open.

What to do if the machine does not start?

If the Kandy machine just brought in from the store does not start, there may be some kind of malfunction. Do not worry ahead of time, first check if the electrical outlet to which the washer is plugged is working. If the outlet is working, be sure to call the service center. If you have a correctly filled out warranty card, you have the full right to a service repair.

In order to avoid problems with warranty repairs, in no case do not open the body of the machine yourself. This will void the warranty on the equipment. The only correct way out is to call the wizard from the service center. The phone number of the center can be found in the warranty card.
