Q: Should I oil the plates of the LAGRANGE MAXI GRILL PRO electric grill before cooking?

According to the manual for the LAGRANGE MAXI GRILL PRO, a light greasing of the plates is not mandatory as the non-stick coating facilitates cooking without the addition of fat. This protective layer makes the use of oil optional in most cases. However, you can apply a thin layer of oil on the preheated plates in two situations: to prevent delicate foods from sticking, or if you are looking for better searing and browning of meats and vegetables. For fish specifically, the manual recommends wiping the surface and lightly oiling it before placing it on the grill, as this category of food tends to stick more. If you decide to oil, always apply a very thin layer after preheating the appliance. Prefer simple techniques with a brush or absorbent paper rather than a spray. Avoid excessive amounts of oil that would make cleaning more difficult. Regarding the maintenance of the plates, the manual specifies to never use abrasive sponges, solvents, or scouring powders, as these products seriously damage the non-stick coating. Simply clean with a soft, damp sponge soaked in dish soap, then rinse and dry with absorbent paper. Even if slight stickiness or brown stains persist, they will not affect your future uses.

Question 3

How to successfully make homemade white cheese with the LAGRANGE FAIT MAISON appliance?

Accepted Answer

To successfully make homemade white cheese with the LAGRANGE FAIT MAISON appliance, here are some practical tips to follow:

1. Choose the right ingredients

Sometimes, a slightly longer fermentation time may be necessary to achieve the desired consistency.

4. Maintain cleanliness

Ensure that all utensils and containers used are perfectly clean to avoid any contamination that could harm the fermentation.

By following these steps, you increase your chances of obtaining a successful homemade white cheese with your LAGRANGE FAIT MAISON appliance.

Question 7

How to remove and clean the filter of the LAGRANGE kettle?

Accepted Answer

The error code E0 on the combined refrigerator CANDY CHSBSO 6174XWD indicates a malfunction of the temperature probe (thermal sensor). This probe is responsible for detecting the internal temperature and transmitting it to the control system. If it is defective or poorly connected, the appliance cannot regulate cooling properly, hence the display of the error code.

Before contacting a technician, try these solutions:

Reset the appliance: Completely unplug the refrigerator from the electrical outlet for about 5 to 10 minutes. This reset can eliminate false errors related to temporary faults in the electronic system. Then plug the appliance back in and wait a few hours to check if the code has disappeared.
Check the connectors: If you have access to the back area of the appliance, check that the connection cables of the temperature probe are not loose, damaged, or corroded. Ensure that all electrical connectors are firmly seated.
Check the operation: Ensure that the freezer (left compartment) and the refrigerator (right compartment) are cooling properly despite the error code display. The thermostat is adjustable between 2°C and -22°C depending on the compartment. If the cooling works normally, it may be a false code.
Observe the appliance: Let the CHSBSO 6174XWD run for at least 24 hours after the reset to allow the system to fully stabilize its internal temperature (influenced by ambient temperature, the amount of food, and door openings).

If the error code E0 persists after these checks, it indicates that the temperature probe of the freezer or refrigerator is defective or that the connection circuit is damaged. The sensor will then need to be replaced. This intervention requires the assistance of a certified CANDY technician, who can accurately diagnose which probe is faulty and replace it. Contact CANDY customer service or an authorized repair center to make an appointment.

Note: The CHSBSO 6174XWD comes with a 2-year warranty. If your appliance is still under warranty and the defect is not due to misuse, the repair should be covered free of charge.
