How much dete~ent should you use?
rThe 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.
Using too little detergent is a common cause of laundry problems. Always measur~ detergent in a standard measuring cup.
How to use detergent—granular or powdered:
For best results, add detergent
to the wash basket before loading clothes. If you load your clothes first, add detergent next to the agitator.
If your detergent doesn’t dissolve well, predissolve the detergent in hot water, then pour directly into the wash basket.
