Remove stain before washing item. If you treat stain with a
flammable solution, wash item in a basin before machine
washing item.
For specific kinds of stains, follow the directions below.
Use mildest treatment first. Avoid using hot water on un­
identified stains; it may “set” the stain. Never iron a stain.

Never put highly flammable substances like gasoline, kerosene, naphtha, waxes, cooking oils, etc. into a washer
or dryer. Never put articles that have been cleaned with such substances in a washer or dryer. Failure to comply
with these warnings could result in a fire, explosion or bodily injury. All items with these substances on them
should be thoroughly hand-washed with a detergent so that no trace of the flammable substance remains. The
articles can then be machine washed or dried.
