First launch of the washing machine Candy

It can be both thrilling and a little scary to turn on a new washing machine for the first time. If you recently bought a Candy washing machine, you probably can’t wait to use it and make sure everything is operating as it should right away. For a seamless first launch, it’s imperative to know how to do it correctly.

There are a few things you should do first before starting your first load of laundry. This will guarantee that your new appliance runs well in addition to helping to protect it. These procedures entail inspecting the machine’s installation, getting it ready for the first wash, and being familiar with its fundamental operations.

You can be sure that your Candy washing machine will operate at peak efficiency and provide you with clean, new clothes on every cycle by adhering to a few easy guidelines. Let’s examine what steps you need to take to get going.

Is the machine "unmothballed"?

If you follow the instructions, the machine’s first start-up will go smoothly and without any issues. Consequently, the first thing to do is to thoroughly read the user manual that contains the instructions for using the equipment. We quickly learn how to use the machine by interpreting the dashboard’s icons and becoming familiar with its modes and settings.

Next, we do the following to get the machine ready for washing:

  • adjust the position of the washing machine;
  • establish communications;
  • remove the transport bolts;
  • clean the drum;
  • remove the factory stickers.

I’ll go into more detail about each now. The washing machine should ideally be installed by experts. It’s critical to properly reposition the body and tighten the clamps on the inlet and drain hoses. If not, weak fasteners will fly off and cause leaks, and the washing machine will "jump" around the room.

The second step is to dismantle the transport bolts. These are long screws that fix the tank in a stationary position, preventing it from loosening and getting damaged during transportation over long distances. But it is forbidden to start the machine without removing them – the motor will try to spin the stationary drum, the latter will resist, the cylinder itself, the shaft, bearings, shock absorption and other adjacent units will suffer. Therefore, the clamps must be removed: first they are loosened, then pushed inward, and a special plastic plug is inserted into the hole. The number of fasteners and their location on a specific Candy is specified in the user manual.

After washing, damage to the machine caused by transport bolts is not covered under warranty.

We then examine the machine’s "cleanliness." All foreign tapes and stickers, plastic ties, and foam blocks must be carefully removed from the body. Parts included in the Candy package are frequently found inside the drum, so be sure to check there. It’s crucial to clean everything and use a dry rag to wipe down the machine gun.

The machine will be prepared for the first wash following all of the steps. But first, a technical launch must be completed; it is too soon to stuff things into the drum. We’ll think about it and its necessity in more detail later.

Mandatory test activation

Once the machine is ready and you have read the instructions, you can move on to the technical launch. The standard procedure for turning on a washing machine involves inserting the supply cable into the outlet, rotating the water supply tap, and pressing the Start button. The test cycle differs from regular washing in a few ways, though.

To put it simply, a technical cycle is a launch with an empty drum, or a "idle" washing. Using it, you are able to:

  • Rinse the factory lubricant and remove the unpleasant odor characteristic of new technology;
  • check the serviceability of the machine (is the water being collected in the proper volume, is the pump working, is the washing machine making a lot of noise, is there any suspicious vibration, etc.d.).

A detergent addition is added to an empty drum during technical start-up!

A drum that is empty is required for the initial start. Loading items into the drum can have disastrous results, such as the laundry becoming stained with grease or not being able to be washed because of a manufacturing defect. It makes more sense to keep the machine idle rather than take a chance. In order to improve internal machine cleaning, detergent is constantly added.

It is essential to stop the cycle early and call a repairman if a manufacturing defect is discovered during the first wash, such as a leak, a program failure, a weak spin, or other malfunctions. Remember that the customer is entitled to one year of free warranty servicing. Candy offers this kind of opportunity as well.

To make sure your Candy washing machine operates well and lasts longer, the first launch is a straightforward but essential step. In order to clean out the system, remove any protective packaging, inspect the electrical and water connections, and perform an initial empty wash cycle. You can prevent problems later on and ensure that your laundry always comes out clean and fresh by following these simple steps when setting up your washing machine.

Setting up the equipment

Any mode will work for an idle start; the most important thing is to activate the long, high temperature. The type and color of the clothing’s fabric will determine which program is best for ensuing washes. Selecting the ideal cycle is simple because contemporary candy machines come with a wide range of features.

Most of the modes’ purposes are obvious, especially to those who have used washing machines in the past. However, it is preferable to carefully study the dashboard icon decoding using the instructions rather than speculating or depending solely on your own reasoning. All of the available modes must be described in the handbook along with information on temperature, duration, spin intensity, and other factors.

Once you’ve identified the modes, you can use the following scheme to start the washing machine:

  • connect to electricity;
  • turn the water supply tap;
  • sort the laundry and load it into the drum (remember the maximum and minimum load weight);
  • close the door until it clicks;
  • add powder or gel;
  • select the appropriate program;
  • if you want to adjust the cycle parameters manually;
  • hold down "Start" and wait for the machine to start working.

After that, all you have to do is wait for the cycle to finish. Candy machines typically sound a final melody to indicate the end of the program. Nevertheless, you can open the hatch two to three minutes after the signal; the electronic lock is removed slightly later for safety.

Step Description
1. Remove Packaging Carefully take off all protective materials and remove any transportation bolts.
2. Connect to Power Plug the washing machine into a grounded power outlet.
3. Attach Water Supply Connect the inlet hose to the water tap and ensure it"s securely fastened.
4. Check Drain Hose Position the drain hose correctly, following the manual"s instructions.
5. Run Empty Cycle Turn on the machine and run a complete cycle without laundry to clean the drum.

It’s easy but crucial to get your new Candy washing machine started. From the very beginning, you can make sure that your machine operates efficiently by closely adhering to the setup instructions.

Prior to turning on the machine, make sure that all transit bolts have been removed and that all connections are tight. This ensures that your washer operates at peak efficiency in addition to protecting it.

When the initial washing cycle is finished, your machine is prepared for frequent usage. By taking these first steps seriously, you can avoid future problems and make laundry day more productive.
