This is not due to poor rinsing performance of your washing
machine, but is caused by certain phosphate free deter
gents which tend to deposit light coloured insoluble spots
on the laundry.
Remedy: dry and brush off or repeat complete rinsing im

The normal dosage of detergent is sometimes insufficient to
remove soiling caused by ointments, grease, and oils. In
crease dosage next time. Remedy: select maximum permis
