GarmentCare Guide 
Use the product in its intended form
Ariel's ink-stain guide describes a machine-washing routine using laundry capsules. Its first placement instruction is to put the capsule at the bottom of the empty drum before adding clothing. That differs from using a liquid detergent for direct application to a mark. Do not open a capsule or turn it into a spot treatment. Check the current pack directions for dose, since load size, soil and water conditions can affect the recommended amount. The clothing must also permit the detergent and the proposed machine-washing process.
Leave appropriate space and choose the allowed cycle
Load suitable garments above the correctly placed capsule without forcing more clothing into the drum than the appliance can handle. Ariel emphasizes avoiding an overloaded machine, particularly with heavily soiled clothing. Select the cycle from the care labels rather than assuming ink requires the highest available temperature. A longer or warmer permitted program may be relevant for some loads, but it should remain inside every item's limits. Ink stains vary, so the guide's product-focused routine should not be read as a promise that all marks on all fabrics disappear in one cycle.
Keep storage and the post-wash check in the routine
The source advises closing the capsule container after use and storing it out of children's reach. That step belongs immediately after dosing rather than being left until the laundry is finished. Unload promptly at the end of the wash and inspect the stained area before drying. If ink remains, consider another compatible treatment before applying dryer heat. These details make the process more precise: use the capsule as directed, load appropriately, follow the garment's settings and assess the actual result. None of those steps can be replaced by simply adding extra detergent.
Place the capsule before the clothing according to the pack
Ariel's routine begins with a capsule at the bottom of the empty drum, then loads the garments above it. That order is part of the intended product use. Read the current package for the appropriate dose and placement rather than opening a capsule for direct treatment or applying a remembered rule from a liquid detergent. Load, soil, and water conditions can affect the directions, so a visible ink mark is not an independent reason to add more units. Confirm that the garment and chosen machine process are compatible with the product. The capsule remains a measured washing format, not a general container of concentrated stain remover to manipulate whenever a pen leaks.
Capacity and cycle choices remain garment-specific
The source cautions against overloading and then directs the wash setting back to the clothing label. Keep both checks. Spare space helps the appliance perform the intended process, but the size of the load does not establish which temperature or agitation is allowed. A heavily ink-marked item still cannot exceed its care limits simply because a longer or warmer treatment might be useful on another fabric. Compare every item's requirements before making a shared load and follow the washer's own program capacity information. This keeps the product-focused routine attached to the actual clothing instead of assuming that correct capsule placement makes every available cycle an equally suitable next step for the stained garment.
Close storage before starting the later stain check
Ariel explicitly includes closing the capsule container and keeping it away from children immediately after dosing. Complete that step while putting the product away, rather than leaving it until the laundry is finished. The later checkpoint has a separate purpose: unload promptly and inspect whether the ink remains before applying dryer heat. If it does, follow an appropriate compatible treatment rather than treating the completed cycle as proof of removal. Ink formulations and fabrics vary, so no one-cycle result should be assumed in advance. The routine is precise because it joins correct product handling, suitable loading, label-led washing, and assessment of the actual mark, with each decision completed at the stage when it matters.
