Fabric Softener Use Tips

Liquid fabric softeners are dispensed during final rinse. Do not combine with bleach, bluing, starch, detergents, soaps, or packaged water conditioners during rinse.

Do not use fabric softener in dispenser during DOUBLE WASH cycle.

Do not mix powdered detergent with liquid softener in dispenser or softener will become gummy.

To use dispenser, follow these steps:

1.Pour liquid fabric softener into dispenser, using amount recommended on package.

2.Add water up to fill level, but do not exceed tip of fill arrow indicator.

FABRIC SOFTENER MUST BE DILUTED FOR USE.

Do not stop washer during first spin or dispenser will empty too soon.

Never pour fabric softener directly onto clothes or spots and stains may result. To remove softener stains, soak in soapy solution of SardWonder Soap or Ivorysoap, or rub stain with bar of Sardor Ivorysoap and wash garment as usual.

For best softener performance, set water level to medium or higher.

3.Clean softener dispenser after each use. Remove dispenser

housing from agitator by squeezing lower part of dispenser and pulling up on housing while tilting slightly to expose dispenser cup. Rinse dispenser housing and cup in hot soapy water.

Clean funnel shape in top of

agitator and inside of agitator. Use small brush on hole and slots in two funnel rings for thorough cleaning.

After cleaning, re-install dispenser cup. Push dispenser housing directly down onto top of agitator until firmly snapped together.

To prevent build-up, fill dispenser with clean water in wash cycles when not using softener.
