What Is The Purpose Of The ‘small Box’ On The Washing Machine

It can be said that the emergence of washing machines has provided us with a very convenient life. If we had been in the past, whether it was hot or cold weather, we could only wash clothes by hand, which was a very difficult thing. Later, with the progress of our science, semi-automatic washing machines emerged. Although we no longer have to wash clothes by ourselves, dehydration and drying were also very troublesome. But now it is different. The fully intelligent washing machine can not only wash clothes clean, but also spin dry them. We only need to take them out for drying, which is much more convenient and saves us a lot of time!
But in fact, observant friends will find that the construction of washing machines nowadays is slightly different from before. For example, there is a "small box" on top of a drum washing machine. However, every time I wash clothes, I always don't know how to use it. I just throw the clothes in and put laundry detergent on them, but the clothes I wash are still not as clean as I imagined. After consulting with the electrical repair teacher Fu, I found out that such a "small box" is actually called a "washing box", and whether our clothes can be washed clean is closely related to it.
Because the structure of the drum washing machine is actually complex, we must make clear the role of this "washing box" before washing clothes. If there is a little foam on the clothes after washing, it is that we did not clean the "small box" before using it. Another possibility is that we used the "washing box" in the wrong way!
After we open the "little box", you will find that it is three small squares side by side. In fact, the usage of each small square is different, and we need to distinguish when to use which one. The small compartment closest to the left and right is actually called the "reservation washing box". It is where we add laundry detergent to the compartment when we pre wash clothes at a scheduled time. When we start washing clothes, it will enter the washing machine along with the water.
In fact, the box in the middle of the "small box" looks smaller than the other two boxes, mainly because it is filled with softeners. We can put some fresheners or softeners in it, but we must not put detergent in it, otherwise it is easy to have foam after washing clothes.
The small grid on the far right of the "small box" is where we add laundry detergent when doing normal laundry, but we also need to pay attention to the amount used, otherwise it will be difficult to clean the clothes thoroughly! In addition, it is best to open the washing machine door and washing box after washing clothes to keep them dry. This is a good method to effectively prevent mold and odor inside the washing machine!
