Permanent Press
Permanent or durable press
garments and household items
will usually not need pressing
when washed and dried properly.
However, some will be more
wrinkle resistant than others.
The care needed for permanent
press is a little different than for
cottons. Permanent press will
soften or become pliable when
heated. This softening when it is
in warm or hot wash water will
allow wear wrinkles to be
removed. It will also cause the
fabric to wrinkle if it is crushed,
squeezed or spun when hot.
Permanent press cycles of
washers, when washer controls
are properly set, will cool the
clothes before the wash spin to
avoid wrinkling. Because the
clothes soften when heated, it is
important to remove them from
the dryer as soon as tumbling
stops.
How To Wash Permanent Press
1. Wash often. Permanent press
clothes tend to look clean even
when they should be washed.
2. Sort loads correctly, refer to
Page 6.
3. Do not wash with lint-shedding
loads. Permanent press
attracts lint in the wash water.
4. Pre-treat grease stains and oily
areas. This is especially
important for shirt collars and
cuffs. Rub liquid detergent or a
paste of detergent into the
area.
5. Use the PERMANENT PRESS/
KNITS cYCle, hot or warm
water, cold rinse, agitation and
spin speed suitable for fabric
and sufficient detergent.
6. Use fabric softener in the rinse
water. This will reduce the
static electricity which attracts
lintand makes garments cling.
To Dry Permanent Press
For best results, permanent press
must be dryer dried. See garment
care labels. Ifto be line dried, use
slow spin. Ironing may be
necessary. Use low heat setting
on iron or steam setting on a
steam iron.
