How to turn on the Candy dishwasher and start the wash

Starting off with a Candy dishwasher might be a little challenging if you’ve never used one before. But you can easily turn it on and start your first wash cycle by following a few easy steps.

The key to getting sparkling results out of your Candy dishwasher is understanding how to start it correctly, regardless of whether you’re loading it up with regular dishes or taking on a more difficult cleaning task. You will be guided step-by-step through the entire process, from loading the dishes to choosing the appropriate wash program, so you will know exactly what to do.

Let’s get started with the essential procedures that will quickly get your Candy dishwasher operating.

Step Description
1 Load the dishwasher with dishes, making sure they are placed correctly.
2 Add the appropriate amount of detergent to the dispenser.
3 Close the dishwasher door securely.
4 Select the desired wash program using the control panel.
5 Press the start button to begin the washing cycle.

Activating the Candy dishwasher and changing the program

The machine has been chosen, bought, delivered, set up in its proper location, and linked to all utilities. The only thing left to do is figure out how to turn on the washer properly. To accomplish this, adhere closely to our guidelines.

  • Open the dishwasher door, first pull out the lower basket for dishes, load it, then push it back and repeat the procedure with the upper basket.
  • Add the necessary products to the device: special salt for dishwashers, detergent and rinse aid.
  • Close the door of the machine.

A distinctive click indicates that the door is securely closed.

  • Plug the machine into a 220-240 Volt power supply and make sure that the machine is connected to the water supply.
  • Activate the device by pressing the power button.
  • Select a program, for which you need to turn the program selection knob clockwise.
  • Press the start and reset button to start the work cycle.

As a result, turning on the sink only requires seven easy steps. Remember to remove the dishwasher’s plug from the socket and use the power button to turn it off when you’re done with your work.

In the unlikely event that you realized mid-wash that you neglected to adjust the operating mode, this can be done at the start of the work cycle. To avoid flooding the floors when you open the door and having to add detergent again, make sure that the detergent from the tray has not yet entered the washing chamber. The process needs to be interrupted if it cannot be stopped.

  • Press the start and reset button for about three seconds to start the process of resetting the washing program.

The PMM can remember the interrupted program, so when you turn on the machine, the interrupted work cycle will begin again. If you simply turn off the dishwasher using a regular power button, this will not cancel the currently active program.

  • Select the necessary sink mode using the rotation of the handle responsible for choosing the mode.
  • Click on the start and reset button to start the sink in the re -selected mode.

This guide will help you wash the dishes correctly every time, even if you changed the program by mistake or simply forgot to do so before turning on the machine.

Chemistry for PMM Kandy

Special household chemicals must be added to the machine before beginning any washing cycle; otherwise, do not run the sink. This first holds true for PMM salt, which aids in softening hard tap water with an ion exchanger. Spots will appear on the dishes and the ion-exchanger itself may eventually malfunction if it is not added. How should salt be loaded?

  • Open the door of the washing chamber and take out the lower dishes from it.
  • Find at the bottom the lid of the salt tank and unscrew it.
  • If this is the first loading of the hopper, then first you need to pour about a liter of water into it.
  • Now, using the funnel that comes with the Candy dishwasher, pour in about 2 kilograms of salt. If a little water spills out of the salt compartment during the process, it is not a problem, because all of it will be washed out during the washing process.

Make sure to use special salt for the dishwasher because its crystals are larger and cleaner than regular table salt’s, meaning they last longer and are better able to handle the ion exchanger’s return to its regenerative functions.

  • Close the lid of the salt bin tightly so that the solution does not spill out during operation.

Depending on the tap water’s hardness and the hardness settings, this quantity of salt granules should last for several months to a year. You must be fully aware of the tap water quality in your city in order to adjust the settings appropriately. You can check the data on the water utility’s official website or purchase specialized test strips for this purpose. Set the salt consumption by unscrewing the lid of the salt container and rotating the ring with the arrow inside to the minus sign to increase or decrease salt consumption, depending on the hardness.

After the salt, you should add the detergent, which can be in the form of powder, gel, tablets or capsules, as well as rinse aid, which is necessary for ideal dishwashing without streaks and stains. Usually, no more than one tablespoon of the product should be loaded into the dispensers for household chemicals, if we are talking about powder, gel or rinse aid, and no more than one piece, if it is a tablet or capsule. The compartments for chemicals are located next to each other on the inside of the washing chamber door. Be sure to add high-quality washing chemicals, designed specifically for dishwashers, before the start of the dishwashing cycle.

All you have to do to begin a wash cycle in a Candy dishwasher is load your dishes, add detergent, choose the desired wash program from the control panel, and hit the start button. It’s a simple procedure that guarantees spotless dishes with little work on your part.

Filling the baskets with dishes

The correct filling of the baskets determines the quality of the dishwashing process because improper dishinstallation inside the washing chamber or obstruction of the sprayers can result in dirty dishes on your hands after the cycle. To avoid this, abide by these basic loading guidelines.

  • The lower basket in the dishwasher is always designed for the largest items, such as pots, pans, lids, baking sheets, salad bowls, etc., which are the most difficult to clean.
  • The upper basket is designed for thin and delicate dishes, such as glasses, mugs, saucers, small plates, etc.
  • Some dishwasher models have an additional compartment specifically for small cutlery.
  • Pots, salad bowls, glasses, and other vessels should be placed upside down so that water drains off them.
  • Be careful that the dishes do not block the free movement of the spray arms.
  • Each cutlery item should stand steadily so that water streams do not tip over or break the cutlery.
  • There should be at least a minimal gap between the items so that the water has access to the entire surface of the dirty dishes.
  • Try not to wash heavily soiled dishes together with lightly soiled ones.
  • Be sure to pre-clean the dishes from pieces of food, napkins, tea bags and other debris that can clog the filters of the dishwasher.

The aforementioned suggestions will assist you in getting the best performance out of the device.

Once you know the steps, setting up your Candy dishwasher is easy. Just be careful to load the dishes correctly, choose the appropriate program, and make sure the rinse aid and detergent are in the right places. Once everything is configured, all that is needed to allow the machine to function is a push of the start button.

Maintaining your dishwasher’s functionality and extending its lifespan will require routine maintenance, such as changing the filters and clearing the spray arms. The control panel’s indicators and error messages are meant to help you if something needs to be attended to, so pay attention to them.

You can maintain spotless dishes with your Candy dishwasher with little effort if you give it some TLC and set it up properly. Experience the ease of use and time-saving advantages that come with becoming an expert on your device.
