3. PRACTICAL TIPS

WARNING: when sorting laundry, make sure:

- have eliminated metallic objects such as barrettes, pins, coins, from laundry;

- to have buttoned pillow cases, closed zips, tied loose belts and long robe ribbons;

- to have removed rollers from curtains;

- to have carefully read clothing washing labels;

- to have removed any persistent stains using specific detergents.

! When washing rugs, bedcovers or other

heavy clothing, we recommend you avoid centrifuging.

! To wash wool, make sure the item can be

machine washed and marked by the “Pure virgin wool” symbol with the “Does not mat” or “Machine washable” label.

A guide environmentally friendly and economic use of your appliance.

Maximise The Load Size

! Achieve the best use of energy, water,

detergent and time by using the recommended maximum load size. Save up to 50% energy by washing a full load instead of 2 half loads.

Do you need to pre-wash?

! For heavily soiled laundry only!

SAVE detergent, time, water and between 5 to 15% energy consumption by NOT selecting Prewash for slight to normally soiled laundry.

Is a hot wash required?

! Pretreat stains with stain remover or soak

dried in stains in water before washing to reduce the necessity of a hot wash programme. Save up to 50% energy by using a 60°C wash programme.

Following is a quick guide with tips and recommendations on detergent use at the various temperatures. In any case, always read the instructions on the detergent for correct use and doses.

Load tips

Helpful suggestions for the user

When washing heavily soiled whites, we recommend using cotton programs of 60°C or above and a

normal washing powder (heavy duty) that contains bleaching agents that at medium/high temperatures provide excellent results.

For washes between 40°C and 60°C the type of detergent used needs to be appropriate for the type of fabric and level of soiling. Normal powders are suitable for “white” or colour fast fabrics with high soiling, while liquid detergents or “colour protecting” powders are suitable for coloured fabrics with light levels of soiling.

For washing at temperatures below 40°C we recommend the use of liquid

detergents or detergents specifically labeled as suitable for low temperature washing.

For washing wool or silk, only use detergents specifically formulated for these fabrics.

4. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

To clean the washing machine exterior, use a damp cloth, avoiding abrasives, alcohol and/or solvents. The washing machine does not require any special care for ordinary cleaning: clean drawer compartments and the filter; some tips on how to move the machine or on long periods of disuse are provided below.

! We recommend you clean the drawer to

avoid accumulating detergent and additive residue.

! To do this, extract the drawer using slight

force, clean it with running water and reinsert it in its housing.

! The washing machine comes with a

special filter able to trap large residue, such as buttons or coins, which could clog the drain.

! Only available on certain models: pull out

the corrugated hose, remove the stopper and drain the water into a container.

! Before unscrewing the filter, we

recommend you place an absorbent cloth under it to keep the floor dry.

! Turn the filter counter-clockwise to the

limit stop in the vertical position.

! Remove and clean the filter; when

finished, replace it turning it clockwise.

! Repeat the previous steps in reverse

order to reassemble all parts.

! Should the washing machine be stored in

an unheated room for a long period of time, drain all water from tubes.

! Unplug the washing machine. ! Detach the tube from the strap and lower

it, fully draining water into a bowl.

! Secure the drain tube with the strap when

finished.

** STANDARD COTTON PROGRAMMES ACCORDING TO (EU) No 1015/2010 and No 1061/2010.

COTTON PROGRAMME WITH A TEMPERATURE OF 60°C.

COTTON PROGRAMME WITH A TEMPERATURE OF 40°C.

These programmes are suitable to clean normally soiled cotton laundry and they are the most efficient programmes in terms of combined energy and water consumptions for washing cotton laundry. These programmes have been developed to be compliant with the temperature on the wash label on the garments and the actual water temperature may slightly differ from the declared temperature of the cycle.

To clean different types of fabrics and various levels of dirt, the washing machine has specific programs to meet every need of washing (see table of programmes).

Rapid

Washing cycle suggested for low loads and slightly dirty. With this program it is recommended to reduce the quantity of detergent normally used, in order to avoid unnecessary waste. Selecting the RAPID program and acting on the button you can choose one of three programs available.

7. CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTRE AND WARRANTY

If you believe the washing machine is not working correctly, consult the quick guide provided below with some practical tips on how to fix the most common problems.

Problem

Possible causes and practical solutions

The washing machine does not work/start

Make sure it is correctly plugged in.

Make sure power is on.

Check whether the required program was correctly selected and to have correctly started the machine.

Make sure the fuse has not blown and that the wall socket is working, testing it with another appliance such as a lamp.

The porthole may not be correctly closed: open and close it again.

The washing machine does not fill with water

Make sure the water faucet is open.

Make sure the timer is correct set.

The washing machine does not drain water

Make sure the filter is not clogged.

Make sure the drain hose is not bent.

Make sure there are no foreign objects in the filter.

Water leaked on the floor near the washing machine

This may be due to a leak in the gasket between the faucet and supply tube; in this case, replace it and tighten the tube and faucet.

The washing machine does not centrifuge

This could be due to the fact that water has not been completely drained: wait a few minutes. Some models include a "no centrifuge" function: make sure it is not on.

An excessive amount of detergent could prevent centrifuge: reduce the amount at the next wash.

Strong vibrations are heard during centrifuge

The washing machine may not be fully levelled: if necessary, adjust the feet as indicated in the specific section.

Make sure transport brackets were removed.

Make sure the load is evenly distributed.

If a specific ERROR appears of blinks

If error no. 0, 1, 5, 7 or 8 appears or blinks, contact the Customer Service Centre directly.

If error no. 2 appears or blinks, the machine does not load water. Make sure the water faucet is open.

If error no. 3 appears or blinks, the machine does not correctly drain. Make sure the drain is free and that the drain hose is not bent.

If error no. 4 appears or blinks, the machine is too full. Close the water faucet and contact the Customer Service Centre.

If error no. 9 appears or blinks, turn off the washing machine, wait 10 – 15 seconds and restart the program.

The use of ecological detergents without phosphates may cause the following effects:

- cloudier rinse drain water: This effect is

tied to the suspended zeolites which do not have negative effects on rinse efficiency.

- white powder (zeolites) on laundry at the end of the wash: this is normal, the powder is not absorbed by fabric and does not change its colour.

- foam in the water at last rinse: this does not necessary indicate poor rinsing.

- abundant foam: This is often due to the anionic surfactants found in the detergents which are hard to eliminate from laundry.

In this case, do not re-rinse to eliminate

these effects: it will not help at all.

If the problem persists or if you suspect a malfunction, immediately contact the Candy Customer Service Centre.

You can also register for the Candy service plan to receive free home service after the warranty expires.

! Ligue o tubo da água à torneira, usando

apenas o tubo fornecido com a máquina (fig. 3).

NÃO ABRA A TORNEIRA.

! Alguns modelos podem incluir uma ou

mais das seguintes opções:

! HOT&COLD (fig. 4): Ligações à água da

rede para água quente e água fria para maior poupança energética. Ligue o tubo cinzento para a torneira de água fria

e a vermelha para a torneira de água quente. A máquina pode ser ligada apenas à torneira de água fria; neste caso alguns programas podem começar alguns minutos mais tarde.

! AQUASTOP (fig. 5): Um dispositivo

localizado no cabo de alimentação interrompe o fluxo de água se o tubo se deteriorar. Neste caso uma marca vermelha irá surgir na janela “A”, o que significa que o tubo tem que ser substituído. Para desapertar a porca, pressione o dispositivo “B” de bloqueio.

! AQUAPROTECT - TUBO FORNECIDO

COM PROTECÇÃO (fig. 6): Caso a água escorra do tubo interno primário "A", a protecção de contenção transparente "B" vai reter a água para permitir que o ciclo de lavagem seja concluído. No fim do ciclo, entre em contacto com o Serviço de Assistência Técnica para que o tubo seja substituído.

! Cuidado ao instalar a máquina de lavar

roupa perto de uma parede para que o tubo não fique dobrado e coloque o tubo de drenagem a descarregar para um grande recipiente (cuba ou balde) ou, de preferência, para uma parede com um orifício a 50 cm de altura, pelo menos, e de forma a que o diâmetro do orifício seja maior que o do tubo da máquina de lavar (fig. 7).

ilustrado na imagem 8: a.gire a porca no sentido dos ponteiros

do relógio para soltar o parafuso;

b.gire o pé para levantar ou baixar até que

fique ao nível do chão, ao nível pretendido;

c.fixe o pé, enroscando a porca, até à

parte de baixo da máquina, mas sem que interfira com esta zona.

! Ligue o aparelho à corrente.

A gaveta do detergente está dividida em 3 compartimentos, tal como ilustrado na imagem 9:

! compartimento “1”: para detergente de

pré-lavagem;

compartimento “ ”:para aditivos especiais, como amaciador, fragrâncias perfumadas, etc.;

compartimento “2”: para detergente de lavagem.

Alguns modelos têm incluído um recipiente para detergente líquido (fig. 10). Para o utilizar, coloque-o no compartimento "2". Desta forma, o detergente líquido apenas vai entrar no tambor da máquina no momento certo do ciclo. O recipiente também pode ser usado no branqueamento quando o programa de “Enxaguamento” está seleccionado.

ATENÇÃO: Contacte o serviço de Assistência Técnica se o cabo de alimentação necessitar de ser substituído.

Gaveta do detergente

ATENÇÃO: Use apenas produtos líquidos; a máquina de lavar está programada para definir automaticamente as doses de aditivos durante o último enxaguamento em cada ciclo de lavagem.

ATENÇÃO: Alguns detergentes são difíceis de remover. Nesse caso recomendamos a utilização do recipiente especial que possa ser colocado no tambor (exemplo imagem 11).

3. DICAS PRÁTICAS

AVISO: quando estiver a escolher a roupa, certifique-se de que:

- retirou todos os objectos metálicos, como pins, moedas ou outros de todas as peças de roupa;

- fechou os botões de fronhas, fechou fechos e amarrou cintos soltos;

- removeu argolas de cortinados;

- leu cuidadosamente as etiquetas com as recomendações de lavagem das peças de roupa;

- removeu as manchas persistentes causadas pelo detergentes específicos.

! Quando lavar cobertas, cobertores,

edredons ou outras peças de grande porte, recomendamos que evite a centrifugação.

! Para lavar lãs, certifique-se de que estas

podem ser lavadas na máquina e que estão identificadas com o símbolo “Pura lã virgem” e etiqueta de que não é um tapete e que é “Lavável na máquina”.

Um guia amigo do ambiente e da poupança para a utilização do seu electrodoméstico.

Maximize a capacidade de carga

! Garanta a melhor utilização e

racionalização da energia, água, detergente e tempo ao utilizar a carga máxima da máquina. Poupe até 50% de energia ao lavar uma carga completa em vez de duas máquinas com meia carga.

É necessária a pré-lavagem?

! POUPE detergente, tempo, água e entre

5 e 15% de consumo de energia ao NÃO selecionar Pré-lavagem para lavar a roupa diária com um nível de sujidade normal. Apenas para roupa com muita sujidade entranhada!

É necessária a lavagem com água quente?

! O pré-tratamento de manchas com um

removedor de nódoas ou a imersão das peças com nódoas em água antes de as pôr a lavar pode reduzir a necessidade de um programa de lavagem a quente para que as nódoas sejam removidas.

Segue-se um guia rápido com dicas e recomendações sobre que detergente usar a várias temperaturas. Em qualquer caso, leia sempre as instruções nas embalagens dos detergentes para uma utilização e dosagem correctas.

Dicas de carregamento da roupa

Sugestões úteis para o utilizador

Quando lavar roupa branca com muita sujidade, recomendamos a escolha de programas de algodões a 60°C ou mais

e um regular detergente em pó para roupas com muita sujidade, dado que esses detergentes contêm agentes branqueadores que a temperaturas médias/altas garantem excelentes resultados.

Para lavar a temperaturas entre 40°C e 60°C o tipo de detergente usado deve ser

adequado ao tipo de tecidos a lavar e ao nível de sujidade. Os normais detergentes em pó são indicados para cores claras, a chamada “roupa branca” ou cores “fixas” de fábrica, em qualquer dos casos, roupa com muita sujidade, enquanto os detergentes líquidos ou “protectores de cores” devem ser usados para roupas de cor mais delicadas e com níveis baixos de sujidade.

Para lavar a temperaturas abaixo dos 40°C recomendamos o uso de detergentes

líquidos ou detergentes especificamente adequados a lavar a baixas temperaturas.

Para lavar sedas ou lãs, use apenas detergentes específicos e recomendados para estes tecidos delicados.

4. MANUTENÇÃO E LIMPEZA

Para limpar o exterior da máquina de lavar, use um pano ou esfregão macio, evitando detergentes abrasivos, álcool ou solventes. A máquina não necessita de nenhum cuidado especial para a limpeza regular: apenas limpar os compartimentos da gaveta de detergentes e o filtro; algumas dicas sobre como mover a máquina ou o que fazer quando está longos períodos sem utilização encontram-se de seguida.

! Recomendamos que limpe a gaveta de

forma a evitar a acumulação de resíduos de detergentes e aditivos.

! Para fazer isto, retire a gaveta usando

uma força ligeira, lave-a debaixo de água corrente e volte a coloca-la no local certo.

! A máquina de lavar vem equipada com um

filtro especial que retém resíduos ou objectos maiores, como botões ou moedas, de forma a que estes não entupam a máquina e os sistemas de drenagem.

! Apenas disponível em alguns modelos:

puxe a mangueira ondulada, retire o bujão e despeje a água para um recipiente.

Antes de desencaixar o filtro, recomendamos que use um pano absorvente, para que o chão não fique molhado com a água que se possa espalhar.

! Rode o filtro no sentido contrário ao dos

ponteiros do relógio até o ter no limite da posição vertical.

! Remova e limpe o filtro; quando terminar,

volte a colocá-lo, girando no sentido dos ponteiros do relógio.

! Repita os passos anteriores de forma

inversa para voltar a colocar o filtro e montar todos os componentes.

! No caso da máquina estar num local não

aquecido durante um longo período de tempo, drene e retire toda a água das tubagens.

! Desligue a máquina da corrente.

! Retire o tubo de drenagem e deixe

escorrer toda a água para um recipiente.

! Fixe o tubo de drenagem com a correia

assim que terminar a operação.
