To use Tide powder in your washer, the method depends on whether you have a top-loading or front-loading machine.
Using powdered laundry detergent like Tide powder requires different placement depending on the type of washing machine you are using.
Using Tide Powder in a Top Loader
For top-loading washing machines, the process is straightforward:
- Dose the detergent directly into the drum before adding clothes. Simply measure the correct amount of Tide powder according to the product instructions (dosage information is typically found on the Tide packaging) and sprinkle it into the empty drum of the washer. Then, add your laundry.
Using Tide Powder in a Front Loader
For front-loading washing machines, the placement differs:
- Add detergent into the detergent drawer. Locate the detergent drawer on your front-loading machine. This drawer usually has compartments for liquid detergent, fabric softener, and powder detergent. Measure the appropriate amount of Tide powder and pour it into the compartment specifically designated for powder detergent.
Following these steps ensures the Tide powder is introduced into the wash cycle correctly based on your washing machine's design.
