Cleaning the washing machine

Have you ever cleaned your washing machine? Many people answer no to this question, thinking that the clothes washed are clean, so how can the washing machine not be clean? In fact, the washing machine is a closed machine that is most likely to breed bacteria. A large number of bacteria such as red yeast, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Cryptococcus aureus, etc. are common bacteria. If you don't clean your washing machine regularly, your clothes will be contaminated with bacteria. Although they appear clean on the surface, the bacteria are difficult to see with the naked eye. Therefore, be sure to clean your washing machine.

You can clean your washing machine after using it for half a year, and then clean it every three months. Many people may wonder, the washing machine is used to wash clothes, and the final cleaning is equivalent to washing the barrel together. Does it need to be cleaned separately? This is different. This kind of cleaning requires the addition of detergent. Here is the cleaning method:

First, remove the washing machine drain hose and place it over an empty bucket, and close the water inlet valve and front door.

Then pour three kettles of water and descaling agent into an empty container, prepare it in the ratio of descaling agent/water = 1/2 and stir it evenly.

Then open the "detergent adding box" and pour the mixed descaling solution from the detergent adding box, being careful not to splash it on your skin.

Press the power switch of the washing machine, set the program to "washing program" (select the longest time), and rotate the washing drum; after the descaling liquid is discharged from the drain pipe into the drum, add the discharged descaling liquid from the detergent adding box, and repeat this several times until the program is completed, open the filter and clean the filter.

After the machine has finished running, open the water inlet valve and restore the drain pipe to its original position. Reselect the washing program and start the washing machine again. After the program is finished, clean the filter again. At this point, the descaling and cleaning is completed.

The above introduces the specific methods of cleaning the washing machine. I hope it can help you develop good hygiene habits. When using a washing machine to wash clothes, pay attention to washing them in categories, and do not wash underwear in the washing machine to prevent bacterial infection and some stubborn diseases such as vaginitis. While the washing machine provides you with convenience, you also need to take good care of the machine and keep it clean so that it can better serve mankind.
