Recommendations on the use of detergent at various temperatures
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.
For dosage amounts please follow the instructions on the detergent package label.
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
1The 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.
2If your washing machine fails to function, carry out the above-mentioned checks
before calling the Candy Technical Assistance Service.

This appliance is marked according to the European directive 2012/19/EU on Waste Electrical and
Electronic Equipment (WEEE).
WEEE contains both polluting substances (which can cause negative consequences for the
environment) and basic components (which can be re-used). It is important to have WEEE
subjected to speciÀ c treatments, in order to remove and dispose properly all pollutants, and
recover and recycle all materials. Individuals can play an important role in ensuring that WEEE does not
become an environmental issue; it is essential to follow some basic rules:
- WEEE should not be treated as household waste;
- WEEE should be handed over to the relevant collection points managed by the municipality or by
registered companies. In many countries, for large WEEE, home collection could be present.
In many countries, when you buy a new appliance, the old one may be returned to the retailer who has to
collect it free of charge on a one-to-one basis, as long as the equipment is of equivalent type and has the
same functions as the supplied equipment.
