How to Partially Restore Clothes

Once clothes have developed limestone deposits, they may be partially restored by soaking in a solution of two cups (480 ml) of vinegar in one gallon (3.8 liters) of hot tap water for 15 minutes. USE A PLAS~C CO~M~R. Then wash clothes in the washer using detergent.

CAUTIONS:

Do not use vinegar soak solution in washer. The acidic action of the vinegar may damage the porcelain.

Vinegar soak solution may reduce the wrinkle-resistance of permanent press fabrics.

Vinegar soak may damage the dyes in some fabrics.

HOW WCH DETERGENT SHOULD YOU USE?

The use of a sufficient amount of detergent is one of the most important things you can do to make sure your wash comes out clean.

Amount required varies according to:

1.Water hardness

2.Amount of soil

3.Size of load

4.Type of detergent

5.Wash temperature

Use more detergent if you have...

1.Hard water

2.Large loads

3.Greasy or oily soils

4.Lower wash temperature

5.Low phosphate detergent

If the recommended amount of detergent produces too many suds, switch to a low sudsing detergent brand, and follow instructions

on package.
