Pre-Treatment for Tough Stains:
For optimal removal of tough or dried stains, follow these steps before starting the main wash cycle:
- Pour: Pour a small amount of liquid detergent directly onto the stained area of the fabric.
- Rub: Gently rub the stained area using the scrubber cap of the detergent bottle. This helps the detergent penetrate the stain.
- Pour: After pre-treating, pour the remaining required detergent into the machine's dispenser and proceed with the regular wash cycle.
