You should use the camera in the same way as many people did when it was new, use the exposure information that is presented with the film. Given the exposure latitude of colour negative film, you should be able to get more than adequate results under the lighting conditions quoted by the manufacturer. The only way that anybody can offer proper help, is if you state the exposure data for the poor negatives.

For a clear explanation of how an image is formed on film, search Wikipedia via Google or any of the many other sites that are found. Bleaching plays no part in the production of the image on negative stock, the process is a very basic photochemical reaction. Chemical bleaching is a stage in the development of reversal/slide film - but that is another story.
