In addition, there are various ways to use a washing machine to clean clothes, depending on the size of the wash load, the types of detergents used, or the fabric of the clothes. You will need to take note of these different ways so that you can use your washing machine properly.
Here’s how to use a washing machine, particularly one branded as an Ariston:
Select the proper cycle for your clothes
The first thing that you need to do is select the proper cycle for your clothes depending on what type of laundry they are and what type of detergent that you will be using with them.
Some people prefer using cold water while others prefer using hot water when they wash their clothes. You should always follow your preference when it comes to this matter because there is no one right way when it comes to this issue.
Place the laundry into the drum in the washer machine
To begin with, you should place your laundry into the drum inside the washer machine by opening its lid and then taking out some of the clothes. The general rule of thumb is to set aside white fabrics to be washed by themselves. In addition, some people have special bags to put their undergarments in.

You should also take note of how much water you will need to fill up the drum before you start washing your clothes. If you’re connecting it to a water hose, make sure the hose has been properly plugged in and turned on.
Put the detergent into the dispenser
After you have placed your laundry into the drum, you should now put the detergent into its dispenser so that it can dissolve completely before it starts to work.
There are sometimes different dispensers for different types of detergents or softeners. This is useful for when you’re setting the washing machine to different types of wash cycles; if you only want to rinse and dry it, there isn’t any need to put a fabric softener in the dispenser. In other washing machines, though, you’d need to pour detergent right on top of the wash load in the washing drum.
Start the wash cycle
When you have finished placing the detergent into the dispenser, you should then close the lid of the washing machine so that it can start to work.
Once the washing machine has finished its cycle, you should take out your laundry and then finish it by putting it in the dryer. If you don’t have a dryer, you can simply hang it up to dry. If you are drying your clothes in a dryer, make sure that you follow the proper steps for this process so that you don’t damage your clothes or appliances.
