Candy Cdb 754 D Manual

							DosagesOnly use detergents which are suitable for use in a washing machine.
You will obtain the best results from your wash with the minimum use of chemical products
and the best care for your laundry if you take into consideration the degree of soiling as well
as the type of detergent to choose.
The amount of detergent to use depends on:
-  water hardness: depending on the hardness of the water and the type of detergent used, it
is possible to reduce the amount of detergent.
-the degree of soiling: it is possible to reduce the amount of detergent used depending on
the degree of soiling.
-amount of laundry: it is possible to reduce the amount of detergent when washing only a
small amount of laundry.Dosage for powder detergentFor normal and low concentration detergents: for normally soiled laundry choose a
programme without prewash.
Put the detergent in compartment “II” of the drawer.
For heavily soiled laundry, choose a programme with prewash.
Put  1/4 of the detergent in compartment “I”, 3/4 in compartment “II”of the drawer.
When using water softeners, first put in the detergent, then add the softener to compartment “II”.
For highly concentrated detergents not in single dose format, follow  what is shown on pack
exactly as regards type and amount of dosage.
To avoid the difficulty of checking if the detergent has been taken up, use the dosage aids
provided in the detergent packaging.Liquid detergent dosageLiquid detergents may be used in accordance with the instructions on the relevant
packaging, for all programmes without prewash, by using the special container which is
placed in the drum or, for those models that have it, in the special insert for liquid detergents.

Detergents, washing aids and amounts to useChoice of detergent
General purpose detergents - Powder detergents, for a thorough wash, with bleaching agent, particularly suitable for
use in hot wash programmes (60°C and over), for heavily soiled and stained laundry.
- Liquid detergents, particularly suitable for grease stains, such as greasy skin marks,
cosmetics and oil.
These detergents are not suitable for washing stained laundry, as they do not contain
bleach.
-Biological detergents, not all the products available give a really thorough wash.Additional laundry aids-Water softener, means less detergent can be used where water hardness is classed as
hard to very hard.
-Prewash substances, for the programmed treatment of stains prior to the main wash.
Using them means the subsequent wash can be at a low temperature or with bleach-free
detergents.
-Fabric softener, prevents static build-up in synthetic fabrics and softens fabrics.
If you own a tumble dryer, clothes are softened even without the use of a fabric softener.
Do not put solvents in the washing machine!
Keep detergents and other laundry products out of children’s reach.
Before pouring in the detergent check that there are no foreign bodies in the detergent
drawer.
Dosage details are usually shown on the detergent packaging. Follow those instructions.

							Main wash
Sorting the laundry-  It is recommended you wash only items which are machine washable with water and 
detergent and not dry-clean items.
-  If you need to wash rugs, bedspreads or other heavy items, it is best not to spin them.
-  Sort the laundry according to fabric type, degree of soiling and wash temperature: Always
follow the wash care advice on the garment label for the most suitable care and 
treatment of the laundry 
Laundry for hot wash 
Coloured, easy-care materials 
Delicates and wool 
Wash by hand 
Items labelled with the following symbol are not suitable for machine washing:
Dry clean 
For very delicate items, such as net curtains, underwear, tights etc., you are advised to 
use a laundry net or wash bag.
-   Woollen items must be labelled with the "Pure New Wool" symbol to be washed in the 
machine  , and must also be labelled "non-matting" or "machine washable".
-   Colour often leaks from new coloured items.
This can then colour other lighter items being washed. 
We therefore  recommend that coloured items should be washed for the first time 
separately.
For future washes, colourfast items can only be washed with whites up to 40°C.Note: when sorting laundry-check there are no metal objects in the laundry
(such as paper clips, safety pins, pins, coins
etc...);
-button up pillowcases, fasten zips, hook & eye
fasteners, belts and long dressing gown cords;
-remove curtain hooks;
-pay close attention to the labels on items
-if you notice stubborn stains whilst sorting the
laundry, remove them using a special detergent or
a special stain remover.
-We recommend that you do not do a full load of towelling items only as these become too
heavy since they absorb a lot of water.

Useful advice for users
Tips on using your domestic appliance in the most environmentally-friendly and economical
wayDo a full load in your washing machineTo prevent any possible waste of energy, water or detergent we recommend that you put a
full load in your washing machine, not exceed the recommended maximum load size.
Up to 50% energy saving can be made with one full load compared to two half load washesWhen is prewashing really needed?Only with particularly dirty loads!
Energy savings of 5 to 15% are made by not selecting the prewash option for normal soiled
laundry.Which wash temperature should you choose?Using stain removers before machine washing reduces the need to wash at temperatures
over 60°C.
Energy savings of up to 50% can be made by using a 60°C wash temperature rather than
90°CBefore using a drying programme...SAVE energy and time by selecting a high spin speed to reduce the water content in laundry
before using a drying programme.

							DRYING
DON’T DRY GARMENTS MADE FROM FOAM RUBBER
OR FLAMMABLE MATERIALS.IMPORTANT: 
THIS DRYER CAN ONLY BE USED  FOR LAUNDRY
WHICH HAS BEEN WASHED AND SPIN DRIED.WARNING:  Indications given are general, therefore some practice is needed for the best drying results.
We recommend setting a lower drying time than indicated, when first using, so as to
establish the degree of dryness required. We recommend not to dry fabrics that fray easily,
such as rugs or garments with a deep pile, to avoid air duct clogging. 
The water is then conveyed to the drain circuit, wich is sealed and therefore, no steam can
be released outside.Important
Never open the door after the drying cycle has begun -
wait until the cool down period provided for by the
cycle.Only dry pre-spun laundry
The washer/dryer can perform two types of drying:
1 Cotton, terry towelling, linen, hemp fabrics, etc...                    symbol on programme dial.
Advisory note

USEFUL TIPS:Do not dry unwashed items in the washer dryer.
Items that have been soiled with substances such as cooking oil, acetone, alcohol, petrol,
kerosene, spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers should be washed in hot
water with an extra amount of detergent before being dried in the washer dryer.
Items such as foam rubber (latex foam), shower caps, waterproof textiles, rubber backed
articles and clothes or pillows fitted with foam rubber pads should not be dried in the
washer dryer.
Fabric softeners, or similar products, should be used as specified by the fabric softener
instructions.
The final part of a washer dryer cycle occurs without heat (cool down cycle) to ensure that
the items are left at a temperature that ensures that the items will not be damaged.
WARNING:
Never stop a washer dryer before the end of the drying cycle unless all items are quickly
removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.The time remaining shown on the digital display will show the time remaining for a
full load. However, this will be corrected during the cycle once the appliance
assesses the weight and dampness of the laundry.
Cleaning and routine maintenance
Do not use alcohol-based scourers and / or thinners on the outside of your washing machine,
just a wipe with a damp cloth will suffice. The washing machine needs very little maintenance:
- Cleaning the drawer compartments.
- Cleaning the door glass.Cleaning the drawer compartmentsEven if it is not strictly necessary, it is good to clean the
compartments for bleaching detergents and additives
occasionally.
A)  To do this you just need to pull them out firmly, but
without forcing them.
B)  Clean everything in the compartment under running
water.
C)  Put everything back in its proper place.Cleaning the door glassRegularly clean the door glass with a damp cloth. A build
up of soiling and
residues from the water may result in water leaking from
the door.
Do not use abrasive cleaners as they can scratch the
surface.Transporting the appliance or long
periods when appliance is not in
useIf the appliance is being transported or is out of use for
long periods in unheated places, all remaining water
must be completely removed from the hoses.
Ensure mains power is off, then unclip the hose and
point it downwards into a basin until all the water has
emptied out.
When finished, repeat the operation in the reverse order. 
						

							Note:
The use of environmentally-friendly, phosphate-free detergents can have the following effects:
-waste water from rinsing may be cloudier because of the presence of zeolites held in
suspension, without the rinse performance being adversely affected;
-presence of white powder (zeolites) on laundry after washing, which is not absorbed by
the fabric and does not alter the colour of the fabric.
-The presence of foam in the final rinsing water is not necessarily an indication of poor
rinsing.
-Anionic surfactants used in washing detergent formulae often prove to be difficult to
remove from the laundry itself and, even in small quantities, can still cause considerable
foam production.
-Carrying out more rinse cycles does not serve any purpose in such cases.CUSTOMER SERVICE AND GUARANTEEYour new appliance is fully guaranteed by the manufacturer for 12 months against

Defects you can remedy yourselfMALFUNCTIONCAUSE REMEDYThe machine makes a
different noise when
spinning! This is because it
has a brush motor for better
performance.Only a small level of water can be
seen in the drum! This is because
new machines do not use much
water, yet achieve the same standard
