detergent.
For best results, put the detergent
in the washer before the clothes
have been loaded.
If your detergent doesn't dissolve
well, pre-dissolve the detergent in
hot water and put it in the washer
before clothes are added.
1. Use recommended amount of
detergent for your load and water
hardness as shown in guide.
2. When using other detergent
types-low and normal suds, powders,
liquids, non-phosphate powders—
follow recommendations on package.
