Washing Machine help

***Mr D*** · 12-05-2007, 13:26

As The Wifey is away, Its down to me to do all the clothes washing (she should of done it before she went like

)

Now I usually use the tablet things that you just chuck in, whack a bit a conditioner in the top bit and spin it up.

However we have no tablet thingys only powder.

When opening the drawer there are 3 compartments I presume (well its running now) I have done right putting the powder in the middle one? and conditioner in the left one?

So whats the third one far then on the right.

I know I should just leave it till she gets back.

but need stuff for work and school.

I think you put the iron in the 3rd one, that way they are ready to put in your drawer when they come out the washer

PS - don't try this kids

it might be different on different washers though

well with mine, the left hand one is pre wash, middle is powder and right is softner... but i suppose it depends on the washer!!

Powder goes in left one on mine and conditioner in middle. I think the right one is for boil wash on mine where it needs 2 lots of powder. I'm sure it will tell me in the instruction book if I read it

turn the washer on first and see which one fils up with water then quickly put your powder into that compartment,the powder usually goes into the largest compartment and fab softner in the smallest,the other one is for the pre-wash

Good One will give that a try.

I did put the powder in the largest compartment so fingers crossed.
