Washing modes of the Candy washing machine

Kandy washing modesKnowing what is hidden behind the schematic icons on the washing machine, you can facilitate and speed up the washing process without manually adjusting the water temperature or the duration of drum rotation. Each mode has its own designation, and even standard programs are displayed differently on machines of different brands and manufacturers. And when the included instructions are lost, many questions arise.

Almost all washing modes and programs of the Kandy washing machine are easy to guess by the “talking” symbols, but there are also special buttons that are not typical for other units. To avoid damaged items or unwashed stains, it is necessary to consider in detail the modes offered by the manufacturer, their designations, parameters, startup and reset.

How are washing programs designated?

A detailed explanation of all the modes available on the control panel of the Candy washing machine can be easily found in the factory instructions or download the user manual or technical description on the manufacturer’s official website. But there is no need to search for documents and download extraneous files to your computer, since the most common programs for the machines of this company are described in detail below. Thus, the following images are often found:

  1. Two drops with a plus sign on the left. This icon indicates the “Aqua-plus” function or double rinse, which is recommended for use when washing children's clothes to completely clean clothes from detergents in order to avoid allergies. Adds 30 to 40 minutes to the main wash time.
  2. Shirt with black spots. The program is called intensive wash and is designed to remove difficult stains.This mode configures the machine for maximum drum rotation, a high temperature of 90 degrees and a duration of 170 minutes.
  3. Dial with a triangle on the right. It is called delayed start and allows you to program the start of washing at any time within 24 hours. To start, you need to load the laundry into the drum, pour in the powder and indicate the start time.
