Stain Removal Guide
•
Check Fabric Care Label.
•
Remove stains as soon as
possible. The fresher the stain,
the easier it is to remove.
•
To make sure a stain removal
product is safe for your fabric
test it on a hidden inside seam.
•
Avoid use of hot water on
unknown stains. It can set
some stains.
General Hints
A thorough soaking with detergent
or a special soaking agent is an
effective way to remove heavy
soils or stains.
Try one of these methods.
•
Use the soak cycle. If your model
does not have a soak cycle you
can still soak by allowing the
washer to fill and agitate for a few
minutes to help loosen soils. Then
push in the Cycle knob to stop
the washer (keep lid closed) and
allow to soak. Don’t leave your
laundry soaking in the washer
longer than a few hours. After
the soak period, pull out the
Cycle knob to complete the cycle.
•
Pretreat heavy soil by rubbing
in a small amount of liquid
detergent or a paste made of
water and powdered detergent
or soap. For best results, wait
1/2 hour before washing.
•
To remove stains on white or
bleachable fabrics, try soaking the
stained area in a container for five
minutes in the following solution
and then launder in the washer:
1 US gallon (3.8 liters) cool water
1/4 cup (60 ml) chlorine bleach
