Programme selector

For the various types of fabrics and various degrees of dirt the washing machine has different programme bands according to: wash cycle, temperature and length of cycle (see table of washing cycle programmes).

1 RESISTANTS FABRICS

The programmes have been designed for a maximum wash and the rinses, with spin intervals, ensure perfect rinsing.

The final spin gives more efficient removal of water.

2 MIXED AND SYNTHETIC FABRICS

The main wash and rinse gives the best results thanks to the rotation rhythms of the drum and to the water levels.

A gentle spin will mean that the fabrics become less creased.

3 SPECIAL DELICATE FIBRES

This is a new wash cycle which alternates washing and soaking and is particularly recommended for very delicate fabrics such as Pure Machine Washable Wool. The wash cycle and rinses are carried out with high water levels to ensure best results.

“HAND WASH”

This washing machine also has a gentle Hand Wash programme cycle. This programme allows a complete washing cycle for garments specified as “Hand Wash only” on the fabric care label. The programme has a temperature of 30°C and concludes with 3 rinses and a slow spin.

4. SPECIALS

“MIX & WASH SYSTEM” PROGRAMME This is an exclusive Candy system and involves 2 great advantages for the

consumer:

•to be able to wash together different type of fabrics (e.g. cotton + synthetic etc…) NON-FAST COLOUREDS;

•to wash with a considerable energy saving.

The "Mix & Wash" programme has a temperature of 40°C and alternate dynamic phases (the drum that turns) to static phases (fabrics in soak in phase of rest) with the programme duration that almost reaching the 3 hours.

The energy consumption for the complete cycle is only 850 W/h.

Important:

•the first washing of new coloureds fabrics must be done separately; •in every case, never mix NON-FAST COLOUREDS fabrics.

32 MINUTE RAPID PROGRAMME 50°C

The 32 minute rapid programme allows a complete washing cycle to be carried out in approximately 30 minutes, with up to a maximum load of 2 kg and a temperature of 50°C.

When selecting the "32 minute rapid" programme, please note that we recommend you use only 20% of the recommended quantities shown on the detergent pack.

Automatic Variable Capacity

The washing machine is fitted with an automatic reduction in consumption system (known as Automatic Variable Capacity).

This system enables the machine to use the amount of water needed to wash and rinse the laundry in relation to the particular load.

This results in a reduction in the amount of water used and electricity needed to heat it to the minimum required, without in any way compromising the washing and rinsing performance. In fact the amount of water and electricity used will always be appropriate for the amount of washing.

The washing machine therefore ensures you achieve excellent washing results whilst respecting the environment and saving you money.
