How to Use Washing Capsules

Have you tried using washing machine capsules? As with any product out there, they come with a set of instructions, and in this article we explain exactly how to use washing capsules efficiently. There are also some important safety rules to bear in mind when using capsules. As all parents will know, kids are naturally curious and before you know it your little ones picked up whatever’s around them, be it a crayon, a banana, a capsule, or even the petrified family cat!

Remember it’s essential to keep washing capsules in a secure location out of the reach and sight of young children.

Top Tip! When you use capsule detergents, it’s important to follow the instructions on the packaging. If you do notice some residues on clothes after your wash cycle has finished, rinse immediately with warm water before drying.

How to Use Washing Capsules

• Place the capsule at the back of the drum: It is important that you put the washing machine capsule at the back of the empty drum, before putting in your laundry. This will allow for the capsule to dissolve properly and not get caught in one of the garments for the whole cycle, which could leave you with residue on your clothing.

• Do not overload the washing machine: If there isn’t sufficient space or water for the clothing to move around in the wash cycle, this can cause the capsule to leave residue. Make sure to allow for about 10 centimeters of space between the top of the drum and your laundry.

• Use the right temperature: Read the product’s label carefully. If the instructions state that you should use a washing temperature above 30 degrees, it means that the capsule will activate and dissolve only if you set the machine at the required temperature.
