Descriptions and designations of washing modes in a Kandy machine: program table

Usually the instruction manual explains all the symbols on the control panel of the Kandy machine. If the user manual is lost and the program names are in a foreign language, difficulties arise when selecting modes.

We offer detailed descriptions of common modes characteristic of many SM Kandy models.

*This and the following tables are approximate durations. For the exact time, see the instructions for your Candy model.

In other models of Kandy washing machines, the programs are not much different, but there are exclusive functions only for a certain line of washing machines. Let's look at these modes by going through the popular models of this brand.

ALISE CB 103 TR

Only for cotton and synthetics!

CANDY AQUAMATIC 80 F

Express wash. The entire wash, rinse and spin cycle takes less than an hour. You can load a maximum of 2 kg of laundry.

Also, in Kandy machines, the choice of programs is based on the type of fabric. The designations for all models are the same, as in the figure below

In the CANDY HOLIDAY 084 DF model, the “Wool” button is indicated by the following icon:

Kandy sign system

Many buyers are often attracted by the external picture - the design of the device. The “façade” is especially important. This is where the panel with buttons and switches, with a display and symbols is located

Equally important is the form in which programs and modes are presented. These can be inscriptions, icons or a combination of both.

It is recommended to read the descriptions of the programs, and if they are presented in the form of symbols, decipher their meanings. Difficulties may arise if the inscriptions are made in a foreign language and there are no instructions in Russian. The language of signs is universal, it is understood by representatives of all nationalities. But not all symbols used by manufacturers are clear at first glance. Kandy also has obscure signs that require deciphering. Let's figure out what modes the Candy washing machine offers and how they are designated.

How to choose a washing mode in a washing machine

Before setting the program you need, prepare for washing:

1. Sort your laundry by color and fabric type. It will not be superfluous to sort things by volume. Wash small and large items separately to avoid unbalancing the drum.
2. Treat stains if there are any.
3. Plug in the machine and run “Start”.

1. Place the laundry in the drum.
2. Pour and pour detergent into the cuvette.
3. Use the selector wheel to select the desired automatic mode.
4. Turn on the program start button.

When choosing automatic washing, you do not need to set the washing time, temperature, spin speed and other parameters. In all auto modes, these functional moments are already programmed by the manufacturer. The main thing is to make the right choice of mode, taking into account the type and color of the fabric.

Main features of Candy washing machines

Candy washing machines are of Italian origin. They began production in 1945. Their development was so rapid that already at the end of the last century the brand was popular both in Europe and far beyond its borders. The main advantages of the units are their low price, along with an impressive range of models and positive technical characteristics. There are vertical machines that can hold up to 7 kg of things, there are compact ones, with a height of no more than 70 cm, and there are full-size ones - with a maximum number of modes and large capacity.

These washing machines are easy to operate, offer a wide range of options and do not consume a lot of water and electricity.

Candy washing machine modes

Before you start working with the Kandy washing machine, you need to decipher the meanings of the symbols on the panel and become familiar with all the features of the modes. Depending on the model, the user is offered programs:

• Aqua-plus. Designed to completely rid the item of detergents and involves double rinsing.
• Intensive Aimed at removing serious contaminants using high heating rates and maximum speed.
• Delayed start. Allows you to set the start time for the next day. Before selecting a mode, the laundry must be placed in the drum, the powder must be poured into the container and then the start time must be specified.
• Rinsing. It is an additional program and allows you to better clean things from used detergents.
• Soak. Suitable for very dirty items and provides two wash cycles. A low level of heat is used and the powder is poured into two containers at once.
• Wool. Designed for delicate woolen products, it is characterized by low heating temperatures and low speed of rotation.
• Express wash. Allows you to quickly refresh things in half an hour. Characterized by high drum rotation speed.
• Super wash. Consumes a small amount of electricity and is used only for cotton and synthetic materials.
• Super rinse. Used for children's products or items intended for allergy sufferers. This is how the Candy washing device ensures complete removal of detergent from laundry and clothes.
• Working with durable fabrics. Suitable for products made of cotton, linen, hemp, characterized by the use of a temperature of 90 degrees.
• Wash in cold water. For very delicate fabrics and is an alternative to hand washing.
• Sport. Designed for synthetic sportswear and shoes.
• Conditioning. Includes the use of conditioners, softening and flavoring agents.
• No drain. Recommended for items for which spinning is prohibited.
• Combined wash. Allows you to wash items from different fabrics and materials in one go.

When selecting a mode, the Candy Smart washing machine focuses on the type of fabric. There are four signs on its panel:

• Durable fabrics – intensive processing with intermediate spinning.
• Synthetic and combined - selects the number of revolutions and the amount of water so that the result is ideal.
• Delicate - more water is used and several long pauses are made during the work.
• Wool – minimal mechanical impact with strong rinsing.

Separately, it is worth dwelling on the powder receptacle compartments. All used detergents must be placed in it. Throwing powder onto clothing can harm both the device and the item itself. Candy washing machines have three compartments:

1. The compartment marked with the letter B is used in basic operating modes and is intended for dry or liquid powder.
2. The container marked with the letter A is used in the “soaking” mode, when the process uses two cleaning stages.
3. A container with a picture of a flower is intended for liquid conditioners, rinses and fragrances.

How does it wash and spin?

The Shiatsu relief drum balances the laundry and distributes water evenly. Thanks to the special design, good impregnation of all areas of loaded fabrics is ensured, which contributes to effective washing. Thus, all modern models from Kandy have a high wash class A.

Special drum design in Kandy washing machines

Also, the user should be interested in a large number of 15-16 modes, depending on the model. But you shouldn’t delude yourself too much, because some modes are just normal temperature variations. In machines you can wash:

• jeans;
• mixed fabrics;
• wool;
• delicate fabrics;
• microfiber sportswear;
• baby clothes with extra rinsing

There is a separate soak procedure, super rinse and an Anti-Wrinkle option that minimizes wrinkles in clothes.

GrandoVita models have a special mode that washes fabrics of various types and colors at a temperature of 20 degrees - Mix & Was. At the same time, the manufacturer promises washing efficiency as at 40 degrees. The mode works this way: first, powdered water is sprayed under pressure, which knocks dirt out of the fibers. Therefore, washing at low temperatures will save you electricity, without at all compromising the quality of the wash.

Starting the washing machine

Before starting the Candy washing machine, you must carefully sort your laundry into black, white and colored. Then separate cotton, synthetic and wool items from each other. All of them must be washed separately. Combined loading of cotton and synthetics into the drum is permissible only if a combined mode is selected. Before loading clothes into the machine, fasten clothing with buttons, zippers, or snaps. If items have stubborn stains, pre-treat them with a stain remover. Do not place bras, or items with beads, rhinestones, beads, or other small decorative trim into the machine.

When all the clothes are placed in the drum, close the lid tightly. When using one of the Candy programs, indicating temperature, speed and other indicators is not required. Mode parameters can be adjusted using selector switches. Add powder and, if necessary, additional products to the containers: conditioner, stain remover, etc. When all stages have been completed, press the “start” button.

If, after starting work, you need to stop the process, you should cancel the program by setting the selector to “OFF”. Then you should change the mode and press “start”. Or you can press the “Pause” button when the door is unlocked - take out or put things down, close the drum and press start.

Stowing laundry correctly

A very important point that allows not only to extend the life of the washing machine, but also to ensure the safety of your belongings, is to ensure that the user correctly loads the laundry into the drum. When using a washing machine, you must follow a number of rules.

When you start washing, be sure to sort items by color, type of fabric, and degree of soiling. Linen, cotton, wool, synthetic fabrics - everything needs to be washed separately. It is better to wash clothes with stubborn stains using the “intensive” mode, while not heavily soiled items should be washed using the main or quick wash program.

Before loading laundry, check all pockets on your clothes to see if there are any foreign objects that could damage the machine’s tank. If items have brooches, fur or other decorations, it is better to remove them before washing. It is also better to fasten all the buttons and zippers on your clothing. Wash outerwear, knitted or terry items by turning them inside out. Thus, they will retain their appearance and will not deteriorate during the washing process.

Do not exceed the maximum permissible load of laundry in the washing machine. Otherwise, this will result in a heavy load on the machine and 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. Laundry should be placed in the drum carefully, distributing it evenly. It is better to prevent things from getting knocked together, this can lead to the machine stopping.

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

• 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;
• robe – 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, but it is quite possible to calculate the approximate mass of things placed in the machine. Even if you make a mistake by half a kilogram, it is not as scary as a total overload.

Operating rules for Candy washing machines

• Load the drum completely, avoiding overload. This can cause breakdown of the entire mechanism.
• Use emollients.
• Mainly use modes with rpm of 600 - 700. Frequent use of modes with 800 rpm or more on Candy washing mechanisms leads to rapid failure of the oil seal and bearings.
• After each wash, wipe the glass and open the detergent container for 15 to 20 minutes. This will ventilate the Candy car, reduce the likelihood of damage to the rubber of the hatch and prevent liquid from getting under the cuffs.
• Always unplug your device. Otherwise, during possible surges in the power supply, the power supply will overheat and fail.
• Once a season, do a dry wash using a descaling agent and turning on a high temperature setting. This will clean all parts of the device from blockages and the negative effects of solid deposits.

Final recommendations for using Kandy washing machines

Washing machines from the Italian manufacturer Candy are distinguished by their versatility, functionality, ease of operation and a wide range of models along with their low price.

The main modes are supplemented by many additional ones, which allows you to wash children's clothes, products for allergy sufferers, delicate fabrics, work in intensive mode and refresh things in half an hour. The mechanism also allows you to delay the start or wash together items that differ in their composition and characteristics.

The manufacturer took care of its customers and provided them with the opportunity to quickly determine the causes of problems using codes displayed on the display. Their decoding is included in each instruction manual for the device.

The most common causes of breakdowns in Candy washing machines are non-compliance with the operating rules of the unit, frequent failures in the power supply from the network, or initial incorrect installation of the machine.

Useful tips on how to use the Candy washing machine

The Kandy washing machine is a household appliance with a complex structure.
Its service life directly depends on how accurately the user follows the operating rules of the device. All actions are important, from the first start to the features of caring for the cuff and powder tray.

The article will discuss how to use the Candy washing machine correctly so that it not only works properly, but also washes things well.

First launch of the Kandy washing machine

To ensure that the device does not have to be repaired immediately after first switching on, it must be put into operation correctly. First you need to study the User's Guide that comes with each model.

Then you need to follow these steps:

1. Place the device on a flat surface. Adjust its position using a level. If you do not do this, the machine will vibrate strongly and quickly fail.
2. Connect equipment to communications. The drain pipe is installed in the sewer pipe, and the inlet hose clamps are securely fixed.

3. 
   Provide the device with safe access to electrical power. It is advisable to connect it to the network directly, without using extension cords.

If the outlet is located in the bathroom, then it must have a moisture-proof housing.

• Remove the shipping bolts that secure the tank.
• Remove tape, film, plastic and foam from the device. Then you should inspect the tank; it often contains additional components.
• Perform the first technical launch. It is necessary to check the functionality of the device and to wash the inside of the machine. Pour washing powder into the tray, set the “Cotton” program, close the drum (it should be empty) and press the “Start” button. During the first wash, you need to carefully monitor the operation of the device to assess the serviceability of the parts and prevent leakage.

This publication will tell you how to turn on the Kandy washing machine.

What difficulties may arise and what to do?

When connecting the Candy washing machine, the following unpleasant situations may occur:

1. Leak at the connection between the inlet hose and the water supply pipe. Replacing the rubber seal and reconnecting the inlet hose will help solve the problem.
2. Leak at the junction of the inlet hose with the body of the washing machine. To eliminate the leak, it is necessary to forcefully tighten the threaded ring on the inlet hose. Additionally, the joint can be coated with sealant.
3. Noise and strong vibration of the washing machine when first started. In such a situation, it is necessary to check whether all transport bolts have been removed from the washing machine body.

If the floor is covered with glossy tiles, you must place the household appliance on a special mat under the legs of the cabinet. This will help prevent the body of the household appliance from moving from its stationary place during the washing process.

Preparing for washing

Preparing for washing involves performing the following steps:

1. Sorting laundry . It is divided by type of fabric, color, degree of contamination. If there are stubborn stains on your laundry, they need to be pre-treated by soaking them in a stain remover.
2. Inspection of things . Before placing items in the drum, you should check the pockets to make sure there are no small objects. Buttons and zippers are fastened, holes are sewn up. If bed linen is to be washed, turn it inside out.
3. Estimate the amount of laundry and its approximate weight . Overloading should not be allowed. It’s good if the drum is half empty during washing.

Mode selection

To select a washing mode, simply turn the programmer knob to the desired position. When the controller is installed, press the “Start” button. If necessary, first change the water temperature and spin speed.

Main modes and their designations:

1. Two drops and a “+” icon located on the right side. This is a double rinse mode, with its help it will be possible to completely rid the fabrics of detergent.
2. Shirt with stains. This is an intensive wash program in which the drum rotates at maximum speed and the water temperature is 90 degrees.
3. Triangle and dial. This is a delayed start function.
4. A basin and a stream that enters it from a watering can. This is a standard extra rinse for laundry. When this option is enabled, the wash cycle is extended by half an hour.
5. A basin with the letter P. Enabling this mode will enable pre-wash.
6. Three balls. The program is designed for washing woolen items.
7. A basin with the numbers 32 inside. This is a quick wash mode that will last 32 minutes.

Washing programs for the Kandy washing machine, video review:

Dependence of the quality of laundry processing in the Candy washing machine on its duration

The duration of washing affects its quality. All Express programs involve quick refreshing of things , which means that we are not talking about full processing. This mode will only remove dust and light odors. It will not be possible to cope with serious old stains.

Express washing is suitable for those
items that have to be processed daily , for example:
A full wash cannot last less than 1.5 hours. If there are persistent stains, it is necessary to increase the water temperature, and may require pre-soaking. All this will increase not only the quality, but also the washing time.

Instructions for use

To start the washing machine, you need to load laundry into it. When it is inside the drum, the hatch is pressed tightly so that a characteristic click is heard.

The next step is to turn on the machine to the network and select the appropriate mode . If the drain hose has a tap that shuts off the water, it must be turned.

Temperature

In most programs, the washing temperature is set by default, but it can be adjusted if necessary.
This is done by pressing a special button. The minimum washing temperature in a Kandy machine is 30 degrees, and the maximum is 90 degrees. The choice of temperature regime is determined by the type of fabric and the degree of its contamination.

For example, silk and wool items can be washed in cold water, while cotton and linen items can be heated to 90 degrees. The optimal water temperature for synthetic products is 60 degrees.

If you don’t understand which mode is suitable for a particular item, you need to study the label. It contains the necessary information.

Spin

The rotation speed of the drum determines how dry the items will be after washing . The maximum speed that the Kandy machine can reach is 1400 rpm. These values ​​are typical for devices with drying. The standard speed is 1200 rpm.

If necessary, spinning can be turned off completely. This is true when washing delicate fabrics, wool and silk.

Adding detergents

Detergents are added to the powder receptacle, which is divided into several sections . The left compartment is for powder that will be used for the main wash, and the right one for the preliminary wash. Another section is located in the center. It is intended for liquid formulations: bleaches and conditioners.

Features of caring for a household appliance

Caring for your Kandy washing machine is easy. It is enough to follow a few recommendations:

Errors and how to resolve them

The most common error codes and ways to eliminate them:

1. 1, E1, E01 – problems with blocking the hatch. You need to try to close the door more tightly, if this does not help, the UBL needs to be repaired.
2. 2, E2, E02 – problems with water intake: there is not enough of it, or too much. It is necessary to check the supply valve, pressure switch and contacts leading to these parts.
3. 3, E3, E03 – water does not drain. You need to check the drain hose, filter and pump; perhaps a blockage has formed in one of the areas.
4. 4, E4, E04 – there is too much water in the tank. The pressure switch, water supply valve or control module is faulty.
5. 5, E5, E05 – problems with water heating. The temperature sensor or heating element may be damaged.

Diagnostics and repair of LG washing machines

If the fault cannot be quickly identified, you will need to partially disassemble the LG washing machine in order to gain access to the components that may fail in this case.

Before opening the case or even partially disassembling the device, it should be disconnected from communications - electricity and water supply. For new equipment that is under warranty, this option is not suitable - you need to call a technician from the service center.

Interference filter malfunction

An interference filter is a device that serves to dampen electromagnetic waves that can interfere with the operation of devices in the house - a TV, radio, computer, etc.

In case of breakdown and failure, the FPS stops passing current through itself. As a result, the entire washing machine does not turn on.

You can check the condition of the interference filter using a multimeter. To do this you need to gain access to the part.

Procedure:

• remove the top cover from the washing machine;
• determine the location of the interference filter;
• check the external condition and functionality of the FPS.

A noise filter is an element of an electrical circuit. There are 3 wires going to its input, and 2 going out. In the case when there is voltage at the input, but there is none at the output, we can talk about a malfunction of the unit. The solution to the problem is to replace the part.

Dismantling the old part and installing a new one should be done very carefully, taking into account the wiring.

Power button failure

This type of breakdown is one of the easiest to fix. To diagnose the condition of a part, you need to gain access to it. This is done with the panel removed.

To analyze the condition of the part, you should use a multimeter. Replacing the power button is quite simple and relatively inexpensive.

Problems with the control module

Diagnostics and repair of the LG control module, and even more so its replacement, is a complex task that only a specialist can handle. To carry out diagnostics and repairs, you need to call a specialist.

If this unit breaks down, almost any error codes may appear on the display or none at all. If the module needs to be replaced, it will be very expensive.

The video will tell you about repairing the control unit:

The door lock is broken

In the case when the washing machine seems to have turned on, but the work has not started, you should pay attention to the hatch door. The door lock is responsible for holding the hatch door closed during washing.

If there is a failure, the error code DE may appear on the display. When the door is locked, the corresponding icon lights up on the display during washing.

If the lock is not locked, washing cannot be carried out - water does not fill in and the drum does not spin. You can check the condition of the node by “ringing” using a multimeter. The solution to the problem is to repair or replace the locking device.

Wiring problems

If the electrical wiring is damaged, the LG washing machine will not function normally.

Depending on the breakdown, work may either be unstable or not even start. Due to poor power supply, the indicators may not light up or flash randomly when turned on.

To fix this problem, you should partially disassemble the washing machine and diagnose the entire electrical circuit.

If a problem area is detected, the wiring is replaced

In the process of analyzing the state of the electrical circuit, it is necessary to pay attention to the reliability of the contacts.

Helpful information

Tips that will be useful to all owners of a Kandy washing machine:

• 
  if faults are detected, you should not try to disassemble the device yourself; if less than a year has passed since the date of purchase, the consumer has the right to free service;

• you need to turn the programmer clockwise and not counterclockwise, so as not to break it;
• With constant washing at high temperatures and speeds, parts will wear out faster, primarily the heating element and bearings will suffer.
