Detergent and softener residue often accumulates in this drawer, disrupting the optimal functioning of the appliance. But that’s not all: they also encourage the emergence of bacteria, germs and mold.
The outcome? A machine prone to breakdown and clothes marked by unwanted stains and odors.
To counter this problem, the solution has already been mentioned: clean your device using 2 lemons. How to proceed with lemons?
Follow these steps:
Pour the juice of two lemons and a glass of vinegar into the detergent drawer and leave for a few hours. After that, clean thoroughly. All residue will disappear. The whitening and antibacterial properties of vinegar and lemon are remarkable.
Did you know that you can place lemons inside the door? Run an empty cycle at 90 degrees and allow the machine to sanitize.
Baking soda is also effective for household cleaning. For washing, mix 20 grams with 1 liter of hot water and pour into the machine. After 30 minutes, run a cycle with cold water: residue and odors will be eliminated.
Another tip:
combine 5 tablespoons of salt and the juice of one lemon in 1 liter of boiling water. Leave on for two hours then clean. To ensure fresh laundry, you must not only clean the detergent compartment, but also the inside of the machine.
To do this, pour half a glass of white vinegar and the juice of two lemons into the tray. Run an empty cycle at 90 degrees. Then clean the drum seal, door and metal parts with a cloth dampened with vinegar and lemon.
By following these recommendations, no more worries about mold and odors. Quick reminder: after each wash, hang out the laundry quickly and keep the washing machine door ajar.
All these tips will be valuable to you. They will save you from purchasing a new device and will guarantee your clothes constant freshness.
