Choosing the Right Detergent

• We recommend powdered detergent, or liquid detergent diluted with water.
(manufacturer's recommanded ratio)
• Soap or granulated soap powders should not be used in your washing machine to prevent build-up.
• When washing woolens, remember to use a detergent suitable for washing woolens.
Amount of Detergent
• Follow the detergent package directions.
• Using too little detergent is a common cause of laundry problems.
• Use more detergent if you have hard water, large loads, greasy or oily soils, or lower water
temperature.
• The correct amount of detergent will vary depending on the amount of soil in your clothes.
(Jeans and work clothes may be needed more detergent while bath towels are less.)
• For liquid and concentrated detergent, follow the recommendations of the detergent manufacturer.
Note
To see if you are using the correct amount of detergent, lift the lid of your machine about half-way
through the wash. There should be a thin layer of foam over the surface of the water. Lots of foam
may look good, but it does not contribute to cleaning your clothes. No foam means not enough
detergent has been used; soil and lint can settle back on the clothes or the washing machine.
Attention
If excessive detergent is used, the rinse will not be as clean and efficient.
Also, it could cause environmental pollution, so use detergent accordingly.

Adding the Detergent

• Some detergents MUST be fully dissolved before adding to your machine to get the best wash
results. Check the instructions on the detergent packet.
If you use powdered detergent, it is essential that the required amount be fully dissolved in very hot
water before being added to warm or hot water for the actual wash.
Pre-dissolving detergent in warm water when washing in cold water can improve its performance.
• Open the detergent box and deposit the
appropriate amount of detergent .
