XXTRA SANITARY This program was specifically designed to eliminate most common houshold bacterium while providing gentle treatment of fabrics. At the beginning of the washing phase, hot water is introduced and then the internal heating element heats the water to 167ºF-174ºF for a minimum of three minutes. Clothes will be saturated in the hot water long enough to kill most common household bacterium, yet without causing additional wear and tear to the clothes. Used for heavily soiled and/or stained colorfast fabrics that need to be sanitized, such as, towels, underware, socks, bed sheets, table clothes, etc. KIDSCARE Regular/Cotton settings are intended to be used for heavily soiled and/or stained colorfast fabrics. Sturdy, hard-wearing items made of cotton or linen such as towels, sheets or white sports socks. i Do not wash new multicolored laundry with other laundry together. AQUAGARD AQUAGARD is designed to work in conjunction with specially designed chemicals to rejuventate the water-resistant qualities of sports- and outer-wear. The textiles are first cleaned with special detergents and then treated with water-proofing agents which are available at most department and sporting-goods stores. Additional options which can be selected include Rinse plus", Reduced ironing", and Power Wash" Maximum load is 3 lbs. i Use special detergent! Pour into detergent (left) compartment. i Water-proofing agents must be added via the softener (middle) compartment. i Do not use fabric softener when washing water-resistant clothing! Textiles treated with fabric softener may lose their water-resistant properties. Following application, some water-proofing agents require the textiles to be heat-treated in the tumble dryer or by ironing the textiles after they have been dried in air. The manufacturer's instructions should be followed carefully to ensure proper treatment. Some residual water-proofing agent may be seen in the washing machine as a fine film. This film will be removed in the next full wash cycle (Regular/Cotton with detergent) and will not harm the items of clothing washed in subsequent programs. Alternatively, start a seperate wash cycle. Wipe any film off the washing machine door with a damp cloth and household cleaner. Wool Woolens (machine wash and hand wash).
