CHAPTER 13

FAULT

NOTE:
THE MACHINE IS FITTED WITH A SPECIAL ELECTRONIC DEVICE, WHICH PREVENTS THE SPIN CYCLE
SHOULD THE LOAD BE UNBALANCED.
THIS REDUCES THE NOISE AND VIBRATION IN THE MACHINE AND SO PROLONGS THE LIFE OF YOUR
MACHINE.

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
1 The 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.
