Frequently Asked Questions - GV 1510LWC2/1-S CANDY

How do I install the washing machine?

Remove the transport screws and shims from the back, level the appliance using the adjustable feet, connect the water supply hose (cold or hot/cold), and attach the drain hose to a standpipe or tub at a height between 50 cm and 85 cm. Ensure the power cord is plugged into a grounded outlet.

What is the maximum load capacity?

The maximum dry load capacity is 10 kg for the GV 1510LWC2/1-S model. However, some programmes have lower maximum loads (e.g., 2.5 kg for Delicates). Always check the programme table in the manual.

How do I use the detergent drawer?

The drawer has three compartments: '1' for prewash detergent, '2' for main wash detergent, and the symbol '☐' for fabric softener or other additives. Use only liquid products in the '☐' compartment. Some models include a liquid detergent cup for compartment '2'.

Can I open the door during a cycle?

Yes, but only after pausing the machine. Press and hold the START/PAUSE button for about 2 seconds until the door lock indicator flashes. Wait 2 minutes for the safety device to unlock the door before opening. After adding or removing items, close the door and press START/PAUSE again.

What does the 'Night & Day' option do?

This option reduces intermediate spin speed to 400 rpm, increases water level during rinsing, and keeps laundry immersed after the final rinse. It also silences water drainage for quiet operation, making it ideal for nighttime use. To finish the cycle with a spin, deselect the option.

How do I clean the filter?

First, unplug the machine and turn off the water faucet. If your model has a corrugated hose, pull it out, remove the stopper, and drain water into a container. Place an absorbent cloth under the filter. Turn the filter counter-clockwise to the vertical stop, remove it, clean under running water, then replace and turn clockwise to lock.

What should I do if the washing machine does not spin?

Check if the drain is clogged or the hose is bent. Ensure the load is balanced and not too heavy. Verify that the spin speed is not set to zero. If using too much detergent, reduce the amount. If the problem persists, consult the error codes or contact Candy service.

How can I save energy with this machine?

Use the standard cotton programmes at 40°C or 60°C for efficient washing. Always wash full loads instead of half loads. Avoid prewash for lightly soiled laundry. Pretreat stains with stain remover instead of using hot wash. The 'Perfect 20°C Mix & Wash' programme uses 50% less energy than a 40°C wash.

What does the 'Memory' button do?

The Memory button allows you to save up to two customised programmes (M1 and M2) including temperature, spin speed, and stain level. To save, select the programme and options, press the MEMORY button for 3 seconds. To recall, press briefly (once for M1, twice for M2) and press START/PAUSE.

Why does the washing machine display error '2'?

Error 2 indicates that the machine is not filling with water. Check that the water faucet is fully open and the water pressure is not too low. Also ensure the supply hose is not kinked or crushed. If the error persists, contact the Candy Customer Service Centre.

Helpful suggestions for the user

A guide environmentally friendly and economic use of your appliance.

Maximise The Load Size

• Achieve the best use of energy, water, detergent and time by using the recommended maximum load size.
  Save up to 50% energy by washing a full load instead of 2 half loads.

Do you need to pre-wash?

- For heavily soiled laundry only! SAVE detergent, time, water and between 5 to 15% energy consumption by NOT selecting Prewash for slight to normally soiled laundry.

Is a hot wash required?

• Pretreat stains with stain remover or soak dried in stains in water before washing to reduce the necessity of a hot wash programme.
  Save up to 50% energy by using a 60°C wash programme.

Following is a quick guide with tips and recommendations on detergent use at the various temperatures. In any case, always read the instructions on the detergent for correct use and doses.

When washing heavily soiled whites, we recommend using cotton programs of 60^ C or above and a normal washing powder (heavy duty) that contains bleaching agents that at medium/high temperatures provide excellent results.

For washes between 40°C and 60°C the type of detergent used needs to be appropriate for the type of fabric and level of soiling.

Normal powders are suitable for “white” or colour fast fabrics with high soiling, while liquid detergents or “colour protecting” powders are suitable for coloured fabrics with light levels of soiling.

For washing at temperatures below 40^ C we recommend the use of liquid detergents or detergents specifically labeled as suitable for low temperature washing.

For washing wool or silk, only use detergents specifically formulated for these fabrics.

4. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

To clean the washing machine exterior, use a damp cloth, avoiding abrasives, alcohol and/or solvents. The washing machine does not require any special care for ordinary cleaning: clean drawer compartments and the filter; some tips on how to move the machine or on long periods of disuse are provided below.

Drawer cleaning

• We recommend you clean the drawer to avoid accumulating detergent and additive residue.
  ● To do this, extract the drawer using slight force, clean it with running water and reinsert it in its housing.

Filter cleaning

● The washing machine comes with a special filter able to trap large residue, such as buttons or coins, which could clog the drain.
- Only available on certain models: pull out the corrugated hose, remove the stopper and drain the water into a container.
● Before unscrewing the filter, we recommend you place an absorbent cloth under it to keep the floor dry.
● Turn the filter counter-clockwise to the limit stop in the vertical position.
- Remove and clean the filter; when finished, replace it turning it clockwise.
- Repeat the previous steps in reverse order to reassemble all parts.

COTTON PROGRAMME WITH A TEMPERATURE OF 60°C.

COTTON PROGRAMME WITH A TEMPERATURE OF 40°C.

These programmes are suitable to clean normally soiled cotton laundry and they are the most efficient programmes in terms of combined energy and water consumptions for washing cotton laundry.

These programmes have been developed to be compliant with the temperature on the wash label on the garments and the actual water temperature may slightly differ from the declared temperature of the cycle.

The spin speed may also be reduced, to match any guidelines suggested on the fabric label, or for very delicate fabrics cancel the spin completely this option is available with a spin speed button. This function can be activated with the button SPIN SELECTION.

If the label does not indicate specific information, it is possible to use the maximum spin expected in the program.

An over dosing of detergent can cause excessive foaming.

If the appliance detects the presence of excessive foam, it may exclude the spinning phase or extend the duration of the program and increase water consumption.

(●) Only with PREWASH option selected (programmes with PREWASH option available).

△ (Only for models with liquid detergent compartment)

When only a limited number of articles have stains which require treatment with liquid bleaching agents, preliminary removal of stain can be carried out in the washing machine.

Pour the bleach into the liquid bleach container, inserted into the compartment marked "2" in the detergent drawer, and set the special programme RINSE.

When this phase has terminated turn the programme selector on the OFF position, add the rest of the fabrics and proceed with a normal wash on the most suitable programme.

1) For the programmes shown you can adjust the duration and intensity of the wash using the STAIN LEVEL button.

Programmes selection

To clean different types of fabrics and various levels of dirt, the washing machine has specific programs to meet every need of washing (see table of programmes).

Mix Power System +

The washing machine is equipped with an innovative pre-mix of detergent and water. A jet of water under high pressure spray the mixture directly in the load.

In the initial phase of the wash cycle, the high pressure spray facilitate the penetration of the wash solution through the fibres, thoroughly removing dirt ensuring the best wash performance.

The system also delivers the "Mix Power System +", during the rinse, the complet removal of the residues of detergent due to its high pressure water jet, which invests the laundry.

Perfect 20°C – Mix & Wash

This innovative "Mix Power System +" technology, allows you to wash fabrics such as cottons, synthetics and mixed fabrics at 20°C with a performance which is comparable to a 40°C wash.

The consumption of this programme is about 50% of a conventional 40°C. Cottons wash.

We suggest a wash load equal to 2/3 of the maximum capacity of the machine.

This programme applies to the washing system "Mix & Wash" which allows you wash different fabrics and colours together.

WARNING:

New coloured garments should be washed separately for at least 5 or 6 washes.

Certain large dark items such as jeans and towels should always be washed separately.

Never mix NON COLOURFAST fabrics.

Intensive 40°

This programme is suitable for cotton garments and achieves excellent cleaning results at 40°C ensuring the application of fabrics and colors.

Hygiene 60°

This programme is suitable for cotton garments and has been specially developed to remove stubborn stains already at 60° thanks to the "Mix Power System +" technology.

Perfect Rapid 59 Min

This specially designed programme maintains the high quality wash performance whilst greatly reducing the wash time.

The programme is designed for a reduce load (see table of programmes).

Rapid 30 Min

A complete washing cycle (wash, rinse and spin). This programme is particularly suited to slightly dirty cottons and mixed fabrics. With this programme it is recommended to use only 20% of the detergent normally used to avoid waste.

Rapid 14 Min

Baby

This program allows you to wash all bal clothes getting a perfect clean and sanitizing effect, setting the temperature at 60^ C minimum.

To optimize the result of the sanitizing effect we recommend the use of powder detergent.

Rinse

This program performs 3 rinses with an intermediate spin (which can be reduced or excluded by using the appropriate button). It is used for rinsing any type of fabric, for example after a wash carried out by hand.

Drain + Spin

The program completes the drain and a maximum spin. It is possible to delete or reduce the spin with the SPIN SELECTION button.

This programme allows a delicate washing cycle for garments specified as "Hand Wash only" and laundry items made from Silk or specified as "Wash as Silk" on the fabric label.

Wool

This program performs a wash cycle dedicated to the wool fabrics that can be washed in a washing machine, or the articles to be washed by hand.

Delicates

This program alternates among moments of work during breaks and is particularly suitable for washing delicate fabrics. The wash cycle and rinses are carried out with a high level water to ensure the best performance.

Mixed

The washing and rinsing are optimized in the rhythms of rotation of the drum and to the water levels. The gentle spin, ensures a reduced formation of creases in the fabric.

Cottons 40°C - 60°C

This program is suitable to clean normally soiled cotton laundry and it is the most efficient program in terms of combined energy and water consumptions for washing cotton laundry.

Whites

7. CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTRE AND WARRANTY

If you believe the washing machine is not working correctly, consult the quick guide provided below with some practical tips on how to fix the most common problems.

Problem	Possible causes and practical solutions
The washing machine does not work/start	Make sure it is correctly plugged in.
	Make sure power is on.
	Check whether the required program was correctly selected and to have correctly started the machine.
	Make sure the fuse has not blown and that the wall socket is working, testing it with another appliance such as a lamp.
	The porthole may not be correctly closed: open and close it again.
The washing machine does not fill with water	Make sure the water faucet is open.
	Make sure the timer is correct set.
The washing machine does not drain water	Make sure the filter is not clogged.
	Make sure the drain hose is not bent.
	Make sure there are no foreign objects in the filter.
Water leaked on the floor near the washing machine	This may be due to a leak in the gasket between the faucet and supply tube; in this case, replace it and tighten the tube and faucet.
The washing machine does not centrifuge	This could be due to the fact that water has not been completely drained: wait a few minutes. Some models include a "no centrifuge" function: make sure it is not on. An excessive amount of detergent could prevent centrifuge: reduce the amount at the next wash.
Strong vibrations are heard during centrifuge	The washing machine may not be fully levelled: if necessary, adjust the feet as indicated in the specific section.
	Make sure transport brackets were removed.
	Make sure the load is evenly distributed.
If a specific ERROR appears of blinks	If error no. 0, 1, 5, 7 or 8 appears or blinks, contact the Customer Service Centre directly.
	If error no. 2 appears or blinks, the machine does not load water. Make sure the water faucet is open.
	If error no. 3 appears or blinks, the machine does not correctly drain. Make sure the drain is free and that the drain hose is not bent.
	If error no. 4 appears or blinks, the machine is too full. Close the water faucet and contact the Customer Service Centre.
	If error no. 9 appears or blinks, turn off the washing machine, wait 10 – 15 seconds and restart the program.

The use of ecological detergents without phosphates may cause the following effects:

• cloudier rinse drain water: This effect is tied to the suspended zeolites which do not have negative effects on rinse efficiency.
• white powder (zeolites) on laundry a the end of the wash: this is normal, the powder is not absorbed by fabric and does not change its colour.
• foam in the water at last rinse: this does not necessary indicate poor rinsing.
• abundant foam: This is often due to the anionic surfactants found in the detergents which are hard to eliminate from laundry. In this case, do not re-rinse to eliminate these effects: it will not help at all.

If the problem persists or if you suspect a malfunction, immediately contact the Candy Customer Service Centre.
