This guide provides essential operating instructions for the Candy CIW 100T washer dryer. Always observe the following safety and operational rules:
- Safety Lock: A safety device prevents the door from opening immediately after a cycle. Wait 2 minutes after the wash cycle finishes before attempting to open the door.
- Knob Direction: Never turn the drying timer or programme selector knobs anti-clockwise. Always turn them clockwise. The wash temperature selector can be turned in either direction.
- Drying Stop: You can stop the drying cycle while the machine is running by turning the drying timer clockwise to the cooling symbol and waiting for the cycle to end.

The control panel features several buttons and selectors to manage your laundry:

- Door Open Button (B): Releases the door lock.
- On/Off Button (C): Starts the appliance and resets/switches it off at the end of the cycle.
