Please note:
It is normal for the programme selector dial to move only from one stage of washing programme to another
and not show any movement in-between – so at certain periods, the dial will stay still.
An electronic device is controlling the exact movement of the timer.

FAULT

If the fault should persist, contact a Candy Technical Assistance Centre. For prompt servicing, give the model of
the washing machine, to be found on the label placed on the cabinet inside of the porthole or on the
guarantee certificate.
Important
1 The use of environment friendly detersives without phosphates may produce the following effects:

- The discharge rinse water may result cloudier due to the presence of zeolites in suspension. This does not

compromise the efficiency of the rinses.

- The presence of white powder (zeolites) on the washing at the end of the washing cycle. This does not

remain incorporated in the fabric and does not alter the colour.

- The presence of foam in the last rinse water which is not necessarily a sign of inadequate rinsing.
- The non-ionic surface-active agents present in the composition of washing machine detersives are often

difficult to remove from the washing itself and, even in small quantities, may produce visible signs of the
formation of foam.

- Carrying out further rinses, in cases such as this, is not useful.

FILTER CLEANING

The washing-machine is equipped with a special filter to
retain large foreign matter which could clog up the drain,
such as coins, buttons, etc. These can, therefore, easily be
recovered. The procedures for cleaning the filter are as
follows:

● Ease off the base as shown in fig.

Use the base as a tray to collect leftover water in filter.

Turn the filter anticlockwise till it stops in vertical position.

Remove and clean.

After cleaning, replace by turning the notch on the end of
the filter clockwise. Then follow all procedures described
above in reverse order.

REMOVALS OR LONG PERIODS WHEN THE MACHINE IS LEFT
STANDING

For eventual removals or when the machine is left standing for
long periods in unheated rooms, the drain hose should be
emptied of all remaining water.

The appliance must be switched off and unplugged. A bowl is
needed. Detach the drainage hose from the clamp and
lower it over the bowl until all the water is removed.

Repeat the same operation with the water inlet hose.
