<span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;"> 1. Sort the clothing <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">This includes understanding care labels and consumer information

<span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;"> 2. Pretreat stains and heavily soiled areas <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">Fresh stains are to remove than old stains

<span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;"> 3. Operate the washing machine <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">Select the wash water temperature <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; line-height: 23px;">
 * <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">Hot water sets stains, shrinks clothes, fades colors, costs more
 * <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">Warm water causes little damage to clothing.
 * <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">Cold water protects fabrics, prevents shrinkage, prevents fading, allows stains to remove easily, works best with detergents, costs less.
 * <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">Cold water allows the rinse cycle to work the best.
 * <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">Chlorine (liquid) bleach is mainly used on white cotton fabrics


 * <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;"> The bleach should not be poured directly on the clothing.




 * <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">Always use the amount of detergent recommended on the box or less—too much detergent is difficult to rinse out and makes the clothing sticky and dull in color.
 * <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">Don’t use extra detergent for extra-dirty clothes—wash them twice instead.
 * <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">For small loads of laundry, use 1/3 of a cup amount of laundry detergent.

<span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">


 * <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">For medium sized loads, use 1/2 of a cup.




 * <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">For large loads, use 2/3 of a cup.



<span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">4. Operating the dryer <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">Selecting the temperature

<span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">
 * <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">High heat damages clothing
 * <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">Medium heat does less damage than high heat
 * <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">Low heat is least damaging but takes longer to dry clothing
 * <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">An average load of clothing requires about 25 to 30 minutes of drying time
 * <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">Heavier items, such as towels and jeans, require a longer drying time
 * <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> Be sure to clean the lint trap. Not cleaning the lint trap my cause the dryer to break or even catch on fire.

 * <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%; line-height: 24px;">Select the time for the dryer
 * <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;">Take the clothes out of the dryer immediately when dry, while they are still warm; fold or hang.
