Vietnamese households advised on proper washing‑machine detergent use

Consumers are urged to select detergent that matches their washing‑machine type. Top‑load machines can handle both low‑foam and high‑foam products, but users should still measure detergent according to the manufacturer’s guidelines and avoid over‑loading the drum. Front‑load machines require low‑foam, specially formulated detergent to prevent excess suds that can impair operation, clog filters or damage internal components. Using the wrong detergent on either machine may reduce cleaning efficiency, cause soap residue, and shorten the appliance’s lifespan. When a dedicated detergent drawer is present, users should add the measured amount to the compartment, pre‑treat stubborn stains if needed, choose the appropriate wash program, and start the cycle as instructed.

Following these steps helps ensure effective cleaning, protects the washing‑machine, and extends its service life.
