Where to put the powder in the Atlant washing machine?

Where to put powder in the Atlant washing machineAlthough there is a washing machine in almost every apartment, people sometimes face problems in using it. Especially if you recently replaced your old washing machine with a new one. In particular, the question often arises, where to pour the powder in the Atlant washing machine? The fact is that the design of the tray in it may differ slightly from other brands, which causes difficulties.

Powder box arrangement

Atlant washing machines have 3 tray compartments. Why do you need several compartments if you can put the product in any of them? In fact, it is very important to place the washing powder correctly depending on the selected mode. Each compartment of the tray has its own number indicating its purpose. The order of the branches may differ, so you should focus on the numbers.

Before placing detergent in the washing machine tray, read the markings inside it.

  • I is usually the right side of the tray. The product is placed in the powder receptacle; when the laundry is heavily soiled, pre-washing is required. If you set this mode, you should always pour powder into this part.
  • II – usually the tray compartment located on the left. You need to put most of the powder in it, because it is intended for the main wash. This powder receiver is used in any mode.powder tray device
  • Flower symbol or * – tray compartment for conditioner, rinse aid or other liquid product. It can be immediately identified by its shape, volume and color. This part is narrow and holds much less detergent than the rest.

You cannot pour the product directly into the drum; there is a tray for this. During the process, the washing machine fills and drains water several times. It turns out that the powder will simply be washed away and there will be no result.

What if you add powder to any compartment?

If you pour washing powder into the wrong compartment of the tray, nothing bad will happen. The washing machine takes the product from that part of the powder receiver, as required according to the mode. For example, you poured powder into a narrow section of the tray intended for liquid product. The washer knows that the conditioner comes from here, which is added to the process only during rinsing. As a result, the dry product does not have time to rinse out, and the clothes at the exit will be contaminated with its traces.what happens if you add powder to the wrong compartment

If, on the contrary, during the pre-wash you pour the powder into compartment II, and not into I, the wash will be wasted. The stains will remain in place, because this amount of product will not be enough to properly clean things. The clothes will simply be rinsed in water several times without noticeable effect.

Taking into account the peculiarities of using a washing machine, you can correct all previously made mistakes. The washing process seems simple, but in reality it has its own nuances. If you wear things that have detergent residue on them, you can develop an allergy, and they also look completely unaesthetic. In addition, proper use of tray compartments helps to save energy, because you do not have to wash clothes several times.
