Soaking and Pre-treating—
a good way to loosen deep soils
and stains.
A thorough soaking with detergent
or special soaking agent is another
way to remove heavy soils,
embedded dirt and even some
stains.
Soaking can be either a completely
separate washing step or a prelim
inary step to a complete wash cycle.
For detailed information on how
to soak in your washer, see page 9.
FOR INFORMATION ON
SOAKING AGENTS, SEE
PAGE 17.
• Pre-treat heavy soil by rubbing in
a small amount of liquid detergent
or a paste made of water and powdered
detergent or soap. For best results,
wait 1/2 hour before washing.
