WATER CONNECTION

Your machine may either be plumbed in or

connected to existing taps, using a tap

adaptor with a 3/4 B.S.P. threaded end

connection. The water supply hoses can be

found inside the drum and are terminated in

two different ways. One end which has a 90°

elbow is to be connected to the appliance

water connection Ewhile the straight end is

to be connected to the domestic supply

tap. The hose with the white collar should be

connected to the cold tap, and the hose

with the red collar to the hot tap. The

appliance is not suitable for use with mixer

taps.

The appliance must be connected to the

water mains using new hose-sets. The old

hose-sets should not be reused.

Hook the end of the outlet hose over the rim

of the sink or outlet pipe, making sure that it

is not kinked. For better positioning of the

outlet hose make use of the plastic hose

clamp provided.

Where possible, use a fixed discharge pipe

with a diameter greater than that of the

outlet hose of the washing machine to allow

air to escape.

The minimum height of the top of the outlet

hose should be 50 cm.

Extending the outlet hose, especially if the

extension is more than 1 metre, could lead

to malfunctioning of the discharge.

50 cm.

The programme chart is located inside of the

detergent drawer as indicate.

Level the machine by means of the front foot.

a) Turn the nut clockwise to release the screw

adjuster of the foot.

b) Rotate the foot to raise or lower until it

stands firmly on the ground.

c) Lock the foot in position by turning the nut

anti-clockwise until it comes up against the

bottom of the machine.

DETERGENT DRAWER

The detergent drawer is divided into 2

compartments:

When washing with bleach,

use the compartment for softener.

When pre-washing, put the detergent directly

inside the drum.

PROVIDE A CONTAINER FOR DETERGENTS

TO BE PLACED DIRECTLY INTO THE DRUM.

IMPORTANT:

ONLY INTRODUCE LIQUID DETERGENTS

INTO THE SECOND COMPARTMENT.

SLOW SPIN BUTTON

The programmes for resistant fabrics operate

at high spin speed.

In special circumstances, when the high

speed spin is not required, the slow spin key

may be pressed thus eliminating the high spin.

In the delicate programmes the drum always

spins at 400 r.p.m.

CHAPTER 9

THE PRODUCT

IMPORTANT:

When washing heavy rugs, bed spreads and

other heavy articles, it is advisable not to spin

them as damage may occur.

To be machine-washed, woollen garments

must bear the machine washable label.

IMPORTANT:

When sorting articles ensure that:

- there are no metal objects in the washing

(e.g. brooches, safety pins, pins, coins etc.).

- cushion covers are buttoned, zips and hooks

are closed, loose belts and long tapes on

dressing gowns are knotted.

- runners from curtains are removed.

- attention is paid to garment labels.

- when sorting, any tough stains should be

removed prior to washing using only those

stain removers recommended on label.

CHAPTER 8

PROGRAMME SELECTION

ADVICE

For the various types of fabrics and levels of

soiling the washing machine has 2 different

programme bands. Wash cycle, temperature

and length of cycle (see table of washing cycle

programmes).

There is also a pre-wash cycle which can be

used with especially dirty laundry.

1 Resistants Fabrics (heavy cottons)

The programmes have been designed for a

maximum wash and rinses, with spin intervals,

which ensure perfect rinsing. The gradual

reduction of the water temperature ensures less

fabrics creasing and the final spin gives a more

efficient water extraction.

2 Wool and mixed or Delicate Fibres

This is a wash cycle which alternates washing

and soaking and is particularly recommended

for very delicate fabrics such as machine

washable wool. The wash cycle and rinses are

carried out with high water levels to ensure the

best results.

GET THE BEST RESULTS FROM YOUR NEW CANDY MACHINE

To ensure you get the best results from your new Candy machine it is

important to use the right detergent in your everyday wash. There are

many detergents on today’s supermarket shelves and making a

choice from the wide range available can often be confusing.

At Candy we regularly test many different types of detergent to assess

which give the best wash results in our machines. We found only one

brand always lives up to our exacting standards and provides

outstanding cleaning across a broad range of stains, as well as

providing high levels of fabric care. That’s why Candy gave Ariel their

official seal of approval.
