Laundry Tips
Laundry Aids Use Comments
Pretreat
Products ● Use a pretreating agent and soak overnight to remove
stains and soils.
● Always follow manufacturer’s instructions with any
pretreatment product.
● Do not use a pretreating agent with
chlorine bleach.
● Do not use pretreaters around the
washer or dryer control panel.
They may harm the finish or panel
markings.
Detergents/Soaps ● Use low-sudsing detergent (recommended for high
efficiency or front loading washers) in your washer.
● When using detergents made for topload washers, use
1/3 of the recommended amount to prevent
oversudsing. Using these detergents may decrease
cleaning performance.
● Soap and powdered detergents will
not give good washing results in
hard water. Soap in hard water will
form sticky deposits.
● We do not recommend the use of
powdered soap when washing in
cold water.
Bleaches ● Use to remove certain stains, disinfect, and keep
clothes white.
● Do not use powdered bleach in the bleach dispenser
compartments. Powdered bleach can be used in the
detergent compartment only.
● Use liquid bleach in the proper dispenser compartment
only. Do not add bleach to the wash load.
● Follow directions on care label of garment.
● Do not use bleach as a substitute for detergent.
● Always measure the bleach. Never
exceed maximum level on bleach
dispenser.
● Never use chlorine bleach and
ammonia in the same wash cycle.
● Add powdered bleach along with
the detergent.
Fabric Softeners ● Use to soften clothes and remove static electricity
from permanent press knits and other fabrics of
manufactured fibers.
● Add to the fabric softener dispenser compartment.
Follow bottle directions carefully.
● Do not add fabric softener directly
to load. Use fabric softener
dispenser.
● Do not mix with detergent or
bleach.
● Do not fill past maximum level on
dispenser compartment.
Water
Conditioners
Non-precipitating
Type ● These products soften water by tying up the hardness
minerals and are recommended if using soap when
water is over three grains hard.
Precipitating Type ● These products settle out hardness minerals by
converting them into particles that will not dissolve in
the water. ● Use water conditioner when
necessary.
