FAQs
How many pods should I use per wash?
For a normal load of laundry, one Ariel 3in1 Pod is typically sufficient. For very large or heavily soiled loads, consult the product packaging for specific recommendations.
Can I use Ariel 3in1 Pods in a cold wash?
Yes, Ariel 3in1 Pods are designed to activate quickly and effectively even in cold water (e.g., 30°C), helping to save energy.
Where should I place the pod in the washing machine?
For optimal performance, place the pod at the back of the *empty* washing machine drum before adding your laundry on top.
Are these pods safe for hand washing?
No, Ariel 3in1 Pods are specifically designed for use in automatic washing machines and should not be used for hand washing.
What should I do if a child gets hold of a pod?
If a child ingests or inhales a pod, seek immediate medical attention and show the product or packaging to the doctor. Always keep Ariel Platinum PODS out of reach of children.
Can I cut or open the pod before use?
No, the pod's film is designed to dissolve in water. Do not cut, open, or puncture the pod, as this can affect its performance and cause skin irritation.
What is the difference between these pods and liquid detergent?
Ariel 3in1 Pods offer a pre-measured, convenient, all-in-one solution for stain removal, odor elimination, and cleaning, activating quickly in cold water. Liquid detergents offer more flexibility in dosage for specific needs.
Troubleshooting
Pod not fully dissolved or residue left on clothes
Ensure the pod was placed at the *back* of the *empty* drum before adding laundry. Avoid overloading the machine. Use a standard cycle length; very short cycles might not allow full dissolution. Ensure water temperature is appropriate for the pod's activation.
Stains not completely removed
For very stubborn or old stains, pre-treat the affected area if possible or consider a longer wash cycle at a slightly higher temperature (if fabric allows). Ensure the correct number of pods for the load size is used.
Odor remaining after wash
Check that the drum was not overloaded, which can prevent proper water circulation. Ensure the washing machine itself is clean and free from any residual odors. A maintenance wash for the machine may be beneficial.
