Advice and tips before washing Amount of detergent to use The amount of detergent needed varies among the different brands, but for most detergents, you need only one or two tablespoons. Using too much detergent can result in detergent residue being left in your clothes, which can cause them to appear gray or dingy. You should start with a small amount of detergent and increase it only if the cleaning results are unsatisfactory. Additionally, you should never put detergent in the prewash compartment unless you are using a wash program that has a prewash cycle. This could cause excess foaming, which could damage the machine. The amount of detergent needed can also depend on the hardness of the water in your area. See the "Detergent Amounts Based on Water Hardness" section on the next page for more details.
