Laundry tips

A. Water hardness

Many poor washing results can be traced to wash water hardness. To check your water hardness:

Ask your city water company or Cooperative Extension Service Office (for well water) for the mineral content in grains-per-gallon or parts- per-million.

If your water is 9 or more grains-per- gallon or more than 153 parts-per- million:

-consider installing a water softener.

-use more detergent.

-use a packaged, non-precipitating water conditioner.

-Do Not use soap.

B.Laundry products

Laundry Tip

mDo Not use oxygen bleach in the bleach dispenser. Clogging can

occur.

. Always dilute fabric softeners with l/2 to l-cup (125 to 250 mL) warm water. Undiluted fabric softener can stain fabrics.

. Use fabric softeners only in deep rinse.

. Do Not mix fabric softeners with other laundry products.

lToo much fabric softener can make some items non-absorbent (like diapers and towels). If this happens, use less fabric softener or don’t use it every time.

For best results when using soap, detergent, chlorine or oxygen bleach, fabric softeners, pretreatment or enzyme laundry products, packaged water conditioners, bluing, ammonia or starch, follow the package instructions.

Service or performance problems caused by the use of any product not manufactured by Whirlpool Corporation are the responsibility of the manufacturer of that product.

C. Tints and dyes

Washer parts such as agitator, washer lid, etc. may be permanently stained by the dye color.

Follow package directions for tints and dyes; then, when you are finished ...

1.Put chlorine bleach and detergent in the washer.

2.Run through a complete cycle using hot water.

3.Repeat if staining occurs on following loads.

Fire Hazard

I

. Never put dry-cleaning solvents or fluids directly into your washer.

’Never put items treated with solvents in your washer until they have been completely rinsed and air dried. The fumes from these solvents can create a fire or explosion.

. Treat stains when they are fresh. Old or set stains may not come out.

. Before treating check:

-type of stain.

-fabric label and how colorfast it is.

-how old the stain is.

mUse cold or warm water first. Hot water can set some stains.

. Use bleach that is safe for fabric. Dilute chlorine bleach.

. Test stain remover products on inside seam or hidden comer of item to check colorfastness.

fl Put stained area face down on paper towel or white cloth. Apply stain remover to back of stain to force the stain off the fabric instead of through it.

mUse meat tenderizer or enzyme presoaks for easier removal of some protein stains.

mUse dry cleaning solvents in a well ventilated room.

. For specific stain removal recommendations, ask your Cooperative Extension Service Office or consult a public utility home economist.
