Equipped with many functions that provide high-quality care for clothes, home textiles, toys, shoes, the Candy washing machine is as easy as possible to operate.
It is enough to carefully study the basic rules for preparing and starting the operating cycle once, so that in the future you will never encounter difficulties in operating this household appliance.
We'll tell you how to turn on the Candy washing machine below.
Descriptions and designations of washing modes in a Kandy machine: program table
Usually the instruction manual explains all the symbols on the control panel of the Kandy machine.
If the user manual is lost and the program names are in a foreign language, difficulties arise when selecting modes. We offer detailed descriptions of common modes characteristic of many SM Kandy models.
Designations | Decoding | The approximate time* |
Aqua-plus function. By selecting a mode, you set an additional rinse. | +30-40 minutes. | |
Intensive wash. | 170 minutes. | |
Delayed start. | 1-24 hours. | |
Rinsing | 30-40 minutes (depending on the type of fabric). | |
Pelvis and the letter “P” on it | Prewash. | 170 minutes. |

Also, in Kandy machines, the choice of programs is based on the type of fabric. The designations for all models are the same, as in the figure below
In the CANDY HOLIDAY 084 DF model, the “Wool” button is indicated by the following icon:
How to choose a washing mode in a washing machine
Before setting the program you need, prepare for washing:
- Sort your laundry by color and fabric type. It will not be superfluous to sort things by volume. Wash small and large items separately to avoid unbalancing the drum.
- Treat stains if there are any.
- Plug in the machine and run “Start”.
- Place the laundry in the drum.
- Pour and pour detergent into the cuvette.
- Use the selector wheel to select the desired automatic mode.
- Turn on the program start button.
When choosing automatic washing, you do not need to set the washing time, temperature, spin speed and other parameters. In all auto modes, these functional moments are already programmed by the manufacturer. The main thing is to make the right choice of mode, taking into account the type and color of the fabric.
Now you know how to set up a Kandy washing machine. Happy washing!
To understand how to use the Candy washing machine, you need not only to understand the mechanism of its operation, but also to navigate the modes, correctly decipher the symbols on the panel, know the stages of starting the wash and follow general recommendations for caring for the mechanism.
Starting and ending the wash
Before using new equipment for the first time after purchase and delivery, you need to make sure that it is installed correctly. We are talking about transportation bolts and protective elements that must be removed. In addition, you need to check the connection of the water supply and drainage hoses, and whether the plug of the machine is plugged into the socket. Although these actions seem obvious, practice shows that they are sometimes forgotten
To prevent the newly acquired Candy from making too much noise and swaying when spinning, it is important to align the legs so that it stands level. In addition, before starting operation, you should familiarize yourself with the safety regulations.
Preparing the washing machine before first use involves cleaning it. If there is no special program for this, run the mode for durable fabrics at maximum temperature and additional rinsing. Naturally, the machine is run without laundry, but with detergent. The start of work begins by pressing the “Start” key.
After this, the electronic display will show the weight of the loaded laundry, the water temperature and the time remaining until the end of the washing process. If the corresponding key is available, the start can be delayed for up to 23 hours. The machine will not start working until this time has elapsed.
At the end of the wash, the door remains locked for a while, after which the laundry can be removed. In accordance with the user manual, the machine should be disconnected from electricity and the water supply valve should be turned off. After each wash cycle, the drum should be inspected, as foreign objects may remain in it (forgotten metal buckles or rivets can lead to the formation of rust).
In the next video you will find a review and instructions for the Candy EVOGT 13072D washing machine.

Final recommendations for using Kandy washing machines
Washing machines from the Italian manufacturer Candy are distinguished by their versatility, functionality, ease of operation and a wide range of models along with their low price.
The main modes are supplemented by many additional ones, which allows you to wash children's clothes, products for allergy sufferers, delicate fabrics, work in intensive mode and refresh things in half an hour. The mechanism also allows you to delay the start or wash together items that differ in their composition and characteristics.
The manufacturer took care of its customers and provided them with the opportunity to quickly determine the causes of problems using codes displayed on the display. Their decoding is included in each instruction manual for the device.
The most common causes of breakdowns in Candy washing machines are non-compliance with the operating rules of the unit, frequent failures in the power supply from the network, or initial incorrect installation of the machine.
The Candy company offers a wide range of household appliances for the home. Washing machines of this brand incorporate a design approach and modern technologies. Each machine comes complete with operating instructions. If you need a manual for using the Candy Activa Smart 80 washing machine, then you can download it directly from the website.

Solving the problem: what can be done on your own?
First, you should inspect the condition of those nodes that are most accessible and do not require special knowledge and tools. If the Kandy washing machine does not react in any way to pressing the power button - neither with a sound signal nor with the indicators lighting up, you should make sure that electricity is supplied to the device at all.
To do this you need:
- Check the availability of electricity in the apartment.
- Inspect the outlet. You can check its serviceability by connecting another device to it, for example, a table lamp.
- Inspect the plug and electrical cord of the washing machine. If there is visible damage (gnawed by pets, scorch marks, etc.), these units should be replaced.
If no visual defects are detected, you will have to proceed to a more thorough inspection of the equipment.
In this case, you should make sure that there is no error code on the display of the Kandy washing machine. If there is a code, then decoding it will help you figure out what exactly the problem is with your washing equipment.
If it doesn’t turn on, what should I do?
Preparation for washing is completed (the drum is loaded, the powder is poured into the desired dispenser compartment, the required mode is selected), but for some reason the washing machine does not turn on. What to do in such a situation?
First of all, check whether the household appliance is connected to the network . If the power cord is plugged into the socket and the washing machine does not turn on, you should check the presence of electricity in the network. Alternatively, the power supply to the entire house has been stopped or the residual current device (RCD) in the panel has tripped.
Secondly, check the power cord for kinks and melted areas. If there is no visible damage to the network cable, you need to check the network interference filter (NFI). This small barrel-shaped sensor is located in the corner under the top panel of the washing machine.
Having dismantled the cover, apply multimeter probes to the FPS contacts. The absence of voltage indicates that the network noise filter is faulty and requires replacement.
Failure of the control module is another reason why the Candy washing machine does not turn on. You can independently test the functionality of the module only if you have the knowledge and skills for such work. Otherwise, it is better to entrust testing and repair of the control module to service center professionals.
Features of caring for a household appliance
Caring for your Kandy washing machine is easy. It is enough to follow a few recommendations:
- After each wash, it is necessary to remove any remaining water from the cuff;
- periodically you need to clean the rubber of the hatch - this is done with a soft cloth and soap solution; if there are signs of mold on the cuff, it is treated with vinegar;
- wash the powder tray - to perform the procedure, it must be removed by pressing on a small tab; if the powder receptacle is very dirty, it is soaked for 20 minutes in warm water with the addition of soda;
- clean the drain filter - small debris and hair accumulate in it; to clean the part, you need to unscrew it and rinse it under running water.
Main features of Candy washing machines
Candy washing machines are of Italian origin. They began production in 1945. Their development was so rapid that already at the end of the last century the brand was popular both in Europe and far beyond its borders. The main advantages of the units are their low price, along with an impressive range of models and positive technical characteristics. There are vertical machines that can hold up to 7 kg of things, there are compact ones, with a height of no more than 70 cm, and there are full-size ones - with a maximum number of modes and large capacity.
These washing machines are easy to operate, offer a wide range of options and do not consume a lot of water and electricity.

Preparing for washing
Before you start washing, it would be a good idea to carry out a number of preparatory processes:
- We sort dirty laundry by color and type of fabric. Separately set aside items that fade (hand washing is recommended for them).
- We fasten the zippers on the clothes, check how tightly the buttons are sewn (if a small button comes off during the washing process, it can cause serious damage).
Do not load the tank beyond the limit specified in the manufacturer's instructions. To avoid imbalance, things are placed in a straightened form, distributed over the entire surface of the drum.
When washing large items, be sure to add several small items to the drum. This will not only improve the quality of washing, but also prevent the process of loosening the drum.
How is communication with a mobile device established?
After downloading the special application, you need to enter 3 parameters:
- type of underwear (for example, shirts, jeans, evening dress, etc.);
- color;
- degree of pollution.
As soon as you bring your mobile phone to the top panel, follow the recommendations of the voice assistant. The “smart” device, after analyzing the information provided, will select the most optimal washing cycle.
Smart Touch button
In addition, the NFC module will be an excellent assistant in identifying and decoding errors. Information will appear on the screen of your gadget that will tell you what to do in case of problems. To conduct mobile diagnostics, you need to bring your phone to the tag and select diagnostic mode.
What is the application for?
Using the Smart application, you can:
- choose optimal programs, in particular additional ones;
- get help in the event of breakdowns, as well as solve some difficulties yourself;
- collect statistics (the program tracks the modes that you run most often, and based on the data obtained, washing parameters are optimized);
- take advantage of a huge collection of tips and tricks to help improve the quality of washing and save resources.

Candy washing machine modes
Before you start working with the Kandy washing machine, you need to decipher the meanings of the symbols on the panel and become familiar with all the features of the modes. Depending on the model, the user is offered programs:
- Aqua-plus. Designed to completely rid the item of detergents and involves double rinsing.
- Intensive Aimed at removing serious contaminants using high heating rates and maximum speed.
- Delayed start. Allows you to set the start time for the next day. Before selecting a mode, the laundry must be placed in the drum, the powder must be poured into the container and then the start time must be specified.
- Rinsing. It is an additional program and allows you to better clean things from used detergents.
- Soak. Suitable for very dirty items and provides two wash cycles. A low level of heat is used and the powder is poured into two containers at once.
- Wool. Designed for delicate woolen products, it is characterized by low heating temperatures and low speed of rotation.
- Express wash. Allows you to quickly refresh things in half an hour. Characterized by high drum rotation speed.
- Super wash. Consumes a small amount of electricity and is used only for cotton and synthetic materials.
- Super rinse. Used for children's products or items intended for allergy sufferers. This is how the Candy washing device ensures complete removal of detergent from laundry and clothes.
- Working with durable fabrics. Suitable for products made of cotton, linen, hemp, characterized by the use of a temperature of 90 degrees.
- Wash in cold water. For very delicate fabrics and is an alternative to hand washing.
- Sport. Designed for synthetic sportswear and shoes.
- Conditioning. Includes the use of conditioners, softening and flavoring agents.
- No drain. Recommended for items for which spinning is prohibited.
- Combined wash. Allows you to wash items from different fabrics and materials in one go.
When selecting a mode, the Candy Smart washing machine focuses on the type of fabric. There are four signs on its panel:
- Durable fabrics – intensive processing with intermediate spinning.
- Synthetic and combined - selects the number of revolutions and the amount of water so that the result is ideal.
- Delicate - more water is used and several long pauses are made during the work.
- Wool – minimal mechanical impact with strong rinsing.
Separately, it is worth dwelling on the powder receptacle compartments. All used detergents must be placed in it. Throwing powder onto clothing can harm both the device and the item itself. Candy washing machines have three compartments:
- The compartment marked with the letter B is used in basic operating modes and is intended for dry or liquid powder.
- The container marked with the letter A is used in the “soaking” mode, when the process uses two cleaning stages.
- A container with a picture of a flower is intended for liquid conditioners, rinses and fragrances.
Launching the Kandy washing machine
Starting the washing process in the Candy washing machine proceeds according to the following algorithm:
- connect the household appliance to the network;
- load sorted laundry into the drum of the washing machine;
- washing powder is poured into a special compartment;
- select the required washing mode (water heating temperature and spin speed are adjusted automatically depending on the selected mode, but if necessary, the parameters can always be changed by turning the selector knob or pressing the corresponding button);
- close the hatch door;
- Press the “Start/Pause” button.
The Candy washing machine will notify you that the washing process is complete with a sound signal, two minutes after which the hatch door can be opened and clean items can be removed.
Washing powder is poured into a special detergent dispenser (located in the upper left corner of the front panel of the washing machine body).
The powder receptacle is divided into several compartments : on the left side - for the main wash, on the right - for the preliminary wash. In the middle there is a compartment intended for liquid bleaches and fabric softeners.
Pay attention to the socket
To connect the automatic machine, be sure to allocate a separate outlet. It must be waterproof and have a ground wire
Although modern washing machines meet all standards for protecting people from electric shock, extra caution wouldn’t hurt
Stores sell special waterproof sockets with a protective cover and curtains. This option is ideal for a washing machine.
Usually the length of the power cord of the washing machine is the same - one and a half meters. Therefore, it is advisable to place the outlet exactly at this distance from the “home assistant”. Of course, you can use a good extension cord, but the manufacturer still recommends connecting the equipment directly to the power supply.
Grounding in sockets is necessary to prevent weak electric shocks. Otherwise, you will feel an unpleasant tingling sensation when you touch the body of the machine. Such exposure does not pose a serious danger to humans. All it causes is discomfort and inconvenience.
First launch of the Indesit washing machine
The Indesit washing machine was delivered, unpacked and installed. The crucial moment comes - the first turn on and start of the wash. It helps to identify hidden defects, as well as get rid of the unpleasant odors of rubber, metal and plastic inherent in new household appliances.
The first “idle” wash takes place at maximum water temperature (90°C), an empty tank, with a small amount (no more than 10% of the norm) of washing powder.
For the first start, set the longest wash mode (as an option, you can use the “auto-cleaning” mode). How to connect an Indesit washing machine to communications, read here.
Diagnostics and repair of LG washing machines
If the fault cannot be quickly identified, you will need to partially disassemble the LG washing machine in order to gain access to the components that may fail in this case.
Before opening the case or even partially disassembling the device, it should be disconnected from communications - electricity and water supply. For new equipment that is under warranty, this option is not suitable - you need to call a technician from the service center.
Interference filter malfunction
An interference filter is a device that serves to dampen electromagnetic waves that can interfere with the operation of devices in the house - a TV, radio, computer, etc.
In case of breakdown and failure, the FPS stops passing current through itself. As a result, the entire washing machine does not turn on.
You can check the condition of the interference filter using a multimeter. To do this you need to gain access to the part.
Procedure:
- remove the top cover from the washing machine;
- determine the location of the interference filter;
- check the external condition and functionality of the FPS.
A noise filter is an element of an electrical circuit. There are 3 wires going to its input, and 2 going out. In the case when there is voltage at the input, but there is none at the output, we can talk about a malfunction of the unit. The solution to the problem is to replace the part.
Dismantling the old part and installing a new one should be done very carefully, taking into account the wiring.
Power button failure
This type of breakdown is one of the easiest to fix. To diagnose the condition of a part, you need to gain access to it. This is done with the panel removed.
To analyze the condition of the part, you should use a multimeter. Replacing the power button is quite simple and relatively inexpensive.
Problems with the control module
Diagnostics and repair of the LG control module, and even more so its replacement, is a complex task that only a specialist can handle. To carry out diagnostics and repairs, you need to call a specialist.
If this unit breaks down, almost any error codes may appear on the display or none at all. If the module needs to be replaced, it will be very expensive.
The video will tell you about repairing the control unit:
The door lock is broken
In the case when the washing machine seems to have turned on, but the work has not started, you should pay attention to the hatch door. The door lock is responsible for holding the hatch door closed during washing.
If there is a failure, the error code DE may appear on the display. When the door is locked, the corresponding icon lights up on the display during washing.
If the lock is not locked, washing cannot be carried out - water does not fill in and the drum does not spin. You can check the condition of the node by “ringing” using a multimeter. The solution to the problem is to repair or replace the locking device.
Wiring problems
If the electrical wiring is damaged, the LG washing machine will not function normally.
Depending on the breakdown, work may either be unstable or not even start. Due to poor power supply, the indicators may not light up or flash randomly when turned on.
To fix this problem, you should partially disassemble the washing machine and diagnose the entire electrical circuit.
If a problem area is detected, the wiring is replaced
In the process of analyzing the state of the electrical circuit, it is necessary to pay attention to the reliability of the contacts.
What it is?
Probably everyone has things that require careful care. These include fabrics such as lace, silk, satin, chiffon, organza. But there is a risk of ruining clothes if you care for them incorrectly. Usually materials deteriorate when washed, for example, with an inappropriate cycle. But they require delicate washing. This keeps things beautiful for a long time.
Modern washing machines have different modes needed to work with different fabrics. Many have a “delicate wash”. This is gentle care for clothes. It is this that must be installed during each procedure.
On the control panel in washing machines, you can set modes depending on the fabric. There you can select the temperature, spin and other characteristics. To understand the principles of setup, just read the operating instructions for the equipment. A suitable mode will preserve the appearance of the material for a long time.

What difficulties may arise and what to do?
When connecting the Candy washing machine, the following unpleasant situations may occur:
- Leak at the connection between the inlet hose and the water supply pipe. Replacing the rubber seal and reconnecting the inlet hose will help solve the problem.
- Leak at the junction of the inlet hose with the body of the washing machine. To eliminate the leak, it is necessary to forcefully tighten the threaded ring on the inlet hose. Additionally, the joint can be coated with sealant.
- Noise and strong vibration of the washing machine when first started. In such a situation, it is necessary to check whether all transport bolts have been removed from the washing machine body.
If the floor is covered with glossy tiles, you must place the household appliance on a special mat under the legs of the cabinet. This will help prevent the body of the household appliance from moving from its stationary place during the washing process.
Candy washing machine modes
Before you start working with the Kandy washing machine, you need to decipher the meanings of the symbols on the panel and become familiar with all the features of the modes. Depending on the model, the user is offered programs:
- Aqua-plus. Designed to completely rid the item of detergents and involves double rinsing.
- Intensive Aimed at removing serious contaminants using high heating rates and maximum speed.
- Delayed start. Allows you to set the start time for the next day. Before selecting a mode, the laundry must be placed in the drum, the powder must be poured into the container and then the start time must be specified.
- Rinsing. It is an additional program and allows you to better clean things from used detergents.
- Soak. Suitable for very dirty items and provides two wash cycles. A low level of heat is used and the powder is poured into two containers at once.
- Wool. Designed for delicate woolen products, it is characterized by low heating temperatures and low speed of rotation.
- Express wash. Allows you to quickly refresh things in half an hour. Characterized by high drum rotation speed.
- Super wash. Consumes a small amount of electricity and is used only for cotton and synthetic materials.
- Super rinse. Used for children's products or items intended for allergy sufferers. This is how the Candy washing device ensures complete removal of detergent from laundry and clothes.
- Working with durable fabrics. Suitable for products made of cotton, linen, hemp, characterized by the use of a temperature of 90 degrees.
- Wash in cold water. For very delicate fabrics and is an alternative to hand washing.
- Sport. Designed for synthetic sportswear and shoes.
- Conditioning. Includes the use of conditioners, softening and flavoring agents.
- No drain. Recommended for items for which spinning is prohibited.
- Combined wash. Allows you to wash items from different fabrics and materials in one go.
When selecting a mode, the Candy Smart washing machine focuses on the type of fabric. There are four signs on its panel:
- Durable fabrics – intensive processing with intermediate spinning.
- Synthetic and combined - selects the number of revolutions and the amount of water so that the result is ideal.
- Delicate - more water is used and several long pauses are made during the work.
- Wool – minimal mechanical impact with strong rinsing.
Separately, it is worth dwelling on the powder receptacle compartments. All used detergents must be placed in it. Throwing powder onto clothing can harm both the device and the item itself. Candy washing machines have three compartments:
- The compartment marked with the letter B is used in basic operating modes and is intended for dry or liquid powder.
- The container marked with the letter A is used in the “soaking” mode, when the process uses two cleaning stages.
- A container with a picture of a flower is intended for liquid conditioners, rinses and fragrances.
Review of the built-in electric oven Candy FCP615NXL
So we got to testing built-in ovens. Our first guest in this field is the Candy FCP615NXL electric oven. The device has the most popular and widespread size and displacement on the market, and is equipped with one baking sheet and a wire rack. In addition to top and bottom heating, there is a grill and convection, metal guides, a timer with a touch panel and recessed control knobs.
In short, the Candy FCP615NXL from the Pop Evo series has a minimal set of characteristics and skills by modern standards. The device is inexpensive and is clearly intended for the type of people who do not want to give up having a full-size electric oven in their home, who sometimes plan to bake or bake something, but have no desire to overpay for innovations such as pyrolytic cleaning, a built-in temperature probe, or whatever control from a smartphone.
We study the model, prepare simple dishes and figure out who it will suit best.

Equipment
The oven traditionally arrived to us in a simple cardboard package, typical of large household appliances. The packaging is nice and well thought out - it was easy to disassemble, it has almost no effect on the overall weight, few materials were used and the design looks safe.
Inside the box was the Candy FCP615NXL itself, and inside the oven there was documentation necessary for installation, screws, a sealing rubber band, a baking sheet and a grid.
At first sight
In front of us was an oven of classic size and shape, the color of our tester was black. During operation, the user sees only the front panel, which is why we paid attention to it. It would be fair to describe it as elegant.
The upper part in the center is the electronic control unit with large recessed round knobs on the sides. The lower part is a door with large glass and a large, comfortable handle. The rotary switches, handle and manufacturer's logo are of a pleasant steel color, overall harmonious and pleasing to the eye.
Inside, everything is quite expected: a black enamel container with a grill heating element on top and a convection fan hidden behind the grille of the back wall, on the sides there are metal guides for the baking sheet. You can remove them (for example, to wash them in the dishwasher).
The insides are illuminated with a regular LED, it shines well and does the job.
The equipment is not their rich: one baking sheet and one wire rack. There is nowhere less. On the other hand, not everyone needs more.
We were not very impressed with the thickness of the baking sheet - it turned out to be so thin that when it was first heated, it even bent when standing in the oven. However, then everything went fine. The same thing happened with the grate: during the first heating, two rods bent, then straightened out and did not cause any further trouble.
Instructions
The main instructions are a black and white brochure of 16 A4 pages, half of which are dedicated to the Russian version, and the other half to the Kazakh version. The instructions are aimed at buyers of several models at once, so we found a description of some functions and pieces of equipment that our model is not equipped with.
This organization is inconvenient and clearly invented out of economy, but it is fully compensated by the fact that reading eight pages in Russian once is more than enough. And in general, the oven is inexpensive, but how many people are willing to pay extra for more convenient instructions? The editors do not know for sure, but assume that obviously not everything.
Control
The basic controls are intuitive at first glance. The right rotary knob is responsible for selecting the mode, the left one sets the heating temperature. Everything turns easily and is tactilely pleasant. The handles can be recessed into the surface of the oven so that they do not stick out.
The proposed temperature modes, that is, applied to the surface in the form of numbers, are chosen a little strangely - however, it’s not difficult to get used to.
The modes are a little more complicated: there is lighting, defrosting, heating the top and bottom panels with convection, bottom heating with convection, simple top and bottom heating, and also a grill mode. For some reason, the “pizza” and “cook light” buttons were added. About the pizza mode it is said that hot air circulates in the oven, “providing excellent results for dishes such as pizza or Italian focaccia pie” - actually this is called convection, but, apparently, it is intended to recall the Italian roots and suggests cooking with reduced use “ fats and oils" on a grill with convection "with pulsating air supply".
A lot is not a little, you don’t risk getting confused in the main functions due to the abundance of additional ones - so why not.
The middle part of the control panel is electronic and dedicated to the timer. Touch controls can be used intuitively. The following functions are concentrated here: the oven can be locked from children, you can use the oven as a clock and even as an alarm clock, set a simple timer that will remind you of your oven at a given time, and also set a timer that will turn off the heating after a certain cooking time or at a certain time. That is, for example, “in two hours” or “at five in the morning.”
Connection
Connecting the oven to electricity is not difficult at all, since the maximum declared power is 2100 W, which is quite tolerable for a standard modern three-pin socket. The oven itself is equipped accordingly: a cable emerges from the back wall, about 8 mm thick, at the end equipped with a regular three-pin “schuko” plug. The manual clearly states that the device is designed “for connection only to electrical equipment with a voltage of 230 V [AC] between phases or between phase and neutral.”
Exploitation
During operation, both pros and cons of the oven being tested were identified.
As an advantage, we can note the convenient and very clear controls, which will not create any problems, even if elderly people come to stay with you or the oven ends up in a hostel where users change all the time.
The glass is double, there is a gap between the layers. Hot air is discharged through a groove in the upper part of the door and the glass does not heat up, remaining simply warm even at maximum heating.
Opening the door, pressing buttons, turning handles - everything is smooth, soft, nothing knocks or gets stuck, does not slam and does not create any problems at all.
Candy FCP615NXL heats up quickly and cools down quite quickly. Testing was carried out on hot summer days and the device did not create any inconvenience to the people near it. Actually, it's just an oven - all the simple tests we put it through, it passed well. Complex things such as dehydration modes, dough proofing or cooking with an accuracy of a given degree are not available to this inexpensive device.
In terms of accuracy, everything turned out to be quite unfortunate. The oven heats up much hotter than the value indicated on the corresponding scale. And if you can still adapt to this, like any housewife adapts to any oven, then uneven heating in the middle and in the corners is more difficult to come to terms with - read in more detail about our measurements below.
Care
Care - the so-called AquActiva (steam) integrated cleaning system. That is, it is supposed to place water in the oven to “steam off” the dirt in half an hour. There is a special button on one of the control handles - with droplets.
In other places - water, sponge, detergent, do not use abrasives. These are commandments that apply to most of these products.
The light bulb deserves special attention. It is protected by a glass cover and is easy to change. Technical characteristics of the light bulb: 230 V/25 W, E14 base, temperature 300 °C.
Our measurements
The maximum power consumption for the entire testing period was 2060 W, which is very close to the rated value of 2100 W.
We also decided to measure the correspondence between the temperature set on the control panel and the actual one. We set the temperature to 200 °C with the left knob, turned on the convection mode with top and bottom heating with the right knob, placed the temperature probe on the baking sheet and began to wait. Since turning on/off heating elements is used to maintain the temperature, the picture, regardless of the location of the probe, was always the same: first the temperature rose to a certain limit, then it began to fall (the heating was turned off), and then it began to rise again (the heating was turned on). We recorded the maximum and minimum temperature values at various points on the baking sheet. If we imagine that the table below is a baking sheet that we are looking at from above, standing in front of the front panel of the oven, then the temperatures are distributed as follows.
215—241 °C | 209—236 °C |
223—258 °C | |
198—212 °C | 199—221 °C |
What was somewhat alarming was not even the discrepancy between the temperature and the declared value, but the spread between the lower and upper values. To double-check, we set the temperature to 150 °C with the left knob and measured the actual values in the center of the baking sheet. Alas, the result is approximately the same as the previous one: the temperature probe measured a range from 149 to 200 °C.
Practice tests
As a practical test, we cooked the most ordinary food in the oven. We deliberately did not set ourselves the task of testing the device using complex or exotic dishes, assuming that a potential buyer of an oven in this segment would be interested in how it would cope with simple everyday tasks. Thus, we prepared the following test dishes:
- Mozzarella Pie
- Pork baked in the sleeve
- One Pot Roast Turkey
- Omelette
- Mom's cookies
Mozzarella Pie
We started with a lazy pie made from ready-made puff pastry. A standard layer of defrosted dough was stretched into a rectangle by hand, approximately 400 grams of mozzarella were grated on a coarse grater, which was salted a little and mixed with a couple of cloves of garlic. Rub some butter on top of the cheese filling.
Then we rolled out the second piece of dough and placed it on top. The resulting product was pinched along the edges, brushed with yolk and pierced in several places with a fork.
The cake was then placed in the oven, where it began to rise quickly. We used the “pizza” mode and a temperature of 170 degrees according to the position of the oven temperature lever.
After 25 minutes, our pie was ready and tormented the entire population of the nearby block with its wonderful smell.
As you can see, the difference in temperature in different parts of the oven did not affect our “khachapur” in any way: it was baked evenly throughout the entire depth, in the center and along the edges.
Result: excellent.
Pork baked in the sleeve
In this test we bake the simplest version of meat. 2 pieces of pork neck, a kilogram each, were stuffed with garlic, salted and sprinkled with a teaspoon of hot red pepper and a tablespoon of ground smoked paprika.
We put the mixture into a baking bag and sealed the edges with the clips included with the bag. We set the upper and lower heating mode and the temperature to 175 (in fact, as we now know, it will be higher than the nominal value). The bag was pierced in several places to allow hot air to escape, and placed in our test case.
After 1 hour 20 minutes, we opened the film and turned on the grill to brown the meat a little.
After another 10 minutes, remove the pork from the oven.
The meat was baked, it turned out tasty and aromatic. Surprisingly for such a high cooking temperature, after cooling it did not disintegrate into fibers and was easily cut into thin slices for sandwiches.
Result: excellent.
One Pot Roast Turkey
We continue to experiment. We took for each pot approximately the same set of products as in the photo: duck breast fillet and turkey thigh, some onions and carrots, some potatoes, herbs, a couple of cloves of garlic and a few prunes. To speed up the process, the potatoes were first placed in the microwave for three minutes.
The ingredients were placed in assorted pots, salt, pepper and a little water were added.
The pots were placed in the oven at 200 degrees. After a while the liquid began to gurgle.
Forty minutes later the stew was ready.
Result: excellent.
Omelette
We beat four eggs and a mug of milk with a mixer, adding a little salt. The frying pan was greased with oil and placed in the oven on the mark corresponding to approximately 160 degrees with convection.
The omelette did not rise as much as we expected, but it was covered with a nice crust, did not fall off after being removed from the oven, and turned out to be the most tender in consistency.
Result: excellent.
Mom's cookies
According to a family Siberian recipe, we mixed flour, egg, butter and sugar, adding a pinch of salt, a handful of dried and then ground sea buckthorn and a handful of pine nuts. The dough was rolled into a ball and placed in the refrigerator for half an hour.
Then the dough pieces were rolled into balls by hand, which were flattened and placed on a baking sheet. The baking paper was of an unfamiliar type, so it was pre-greased with oil.
The cookies somehow baked suspiciously quickly, and while we were running for the camera, they even got a little burnt on the bottom.
This turned out to be successful: we noticed that everything was fine around the edges, and that what was burnt was closer to the center of the pan. It was then that we discovered the need to test heating in different parts of the oven and were able to conclude that the device also has the disadvantage of a “tendency to overheat” and uneven heating in the center and along the edges.
As you can see from the practical tests carried out, this did not affect the preparation of dishes, except for the last one, and even then, if we had not been gaping and pulled out the cookies in time, we might not have noticed anything at all.
Result: good.
Not only did this dish inspire us to explore further, but it also turned out to be delicious: a plate of cookies fell apart before our eyes.
conclusions
We liked the Candy FCP615NXL electric built-in oven. It's sleek, affordable, and has all the basic features you need in a modern oven. It has the most common size on the market, and it is equipped with 7 operating modes, grill and convection. The baking tray and grid are placed on removable metal guides; operation is simple and intuitive.
A plus is the presence of a timer, which, among other things, can turn off the heating both after some time and upon reaching a certain time.
Among the minuses, the excess of the actual temperature from the nominally set one was noted, as well as the uneven heating inside the cabinet, which cannot be ignored, although they had almost no effect on practical tests and the quality of the resulting dishes.
The oven successfully passed all tests. You can use it to prepare dishes that belong to the “everyday” menu: simple pastries, meat, casseroles, etc. Advanced cooks, bread-baking maniacs and lovers of innovation will most likely find the functionality of the device insufficient. For an ordinary family who is looking for a simple, inexpensive oven and does not want to overpay for extra bells and whistles, the device is suitable.
