How to Wash Permanent Press
1. Sort loads correctly. Refer to Before Washing
section.
2. Do not wash with lint-shedding loads. Permanent
press attracts lint in the wash water.
3. Pretreat grease stains and oily areas. This is
especially important for shirt collars and cuffs.
Rub liquid detergent or a paste of detergent into
the area.
4. Use the PERMANENT PRESS cycle, hot or
warm water, cold rinse, and sufficient detergent.
5. Use fabric softener in the dispenser. This will
reduce the static electricity which attracts lint and
makes garments cling.
To Dry Permanent Press
For best results, permanent press should be dried in the
dryer. Refer to garment care labels. Ironing may be
necessary. Use low heat setting on iron or steam
setting on a steam iron.
Stain Removal
Many soils will not become stains if treated promptly.
Older stains may be difficult or impossible to remove.
Hot water will set some stains, particularly protein-
based stains. Use cold or warm water on these before
washing in hot water.
Never put highly flammable substances like
gasoline, kerosene, waxes, cooking oils,
dry-cleaning solvents, etc. into a washer or
dryer. Never put articles that have been
cleaned with such substances into a washer
or dryer. Failure to comply with these
warnings could result in a fire, explosion,
and/or serious burns or death. All items with
these substances on them should be
thoroughly hand-washed with a detergent
so that no trace of the flammable
substances remains. The articles can then
be machine washed and/or dried.
When using any kind of a dry-cleaning fluid,
follow the manufacturer's
recommendations. The fumes should never
be inhaled. Use in a well ventilated room
away from sparks and flames. Air dry before
washing or drying. Dry-cleaning fluid may
cause a “ring” to be formed on some
permanent press fabrics. This will not wash
out. To remove, clean the garment in a coin-
operated dry-cleaning unit, or by a
professional dry-cleaner.
