To auto clean your Candy washing machine, you need to use the machine's designated cleaning cycle and add the appropriate cleaning agent. Here's a breakdown of the process:
-
Locate the Washer Cleaning Cycle: Most Candy washing machines have a specific cycle designed for cleaning. Check your machine's control panel or consult your user manual to find the cycle labeled "Washer Cleaning," "Auto Clean," or something similar.
-
Add Cleaning Agent:
- Bleach: You can use household bleach. Pour the recommended amount (refer to your washing machine's manual) into the dispenser drawer where you usually put your detergent.
- Specialist Washing Machine Cleaner: Alternatively, you can use a commercially available washing machine cleaner. Follow the instructions on the cleaner's packaging regarding dosage and where to place it (usually the detergent dispenser).
-
Run the Cleaning Cycle: Select the washer cleaning cycle and start the machine. The machine will automatically run a cleaning program, which typically involves higher water temperatures and longer wash times to effectively remove buildup and residue.
-
After the Cycle: Once the cleaning cycle is complete, you may want to run an additional rinse cycle to ensure all traces of the cleaning agent are removed.
Important Considerations:
- Consult your user manual: Always refer to your specific Candy washing machine's user manual for the most accurate instructions and recommended cleaning agents.
- Frequency: The frequency of cleaning depends on your usage. A general guideline is to clean your washing machine every 1-3 months.
- Empty the Machine: Ensure the washing machine is empty before starting the cleaning cycle.
- Door Seal: After the cycle, wipe down the rubber door seal to remove any remaining debris or moisture. This will help prevent mold and mildew growth.
By following these steps, you can effectively auto clean your Candy washing machine and keep it running efficiently.
