Maximize Cleaning Power: Step-By-Step Guide To Using Oxiclean In Lg He Washers

LG HE (high-efficiency) washers are designed to use less water and detergent than traditional washers, making them more efficient and eco-friendly. However, this can also mean that stains and odors may not be removed as effectively. OxiClean is a powerful stain remover that can help boost the cleaning power of your LG HE washer.

Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to add OxiClean to your LG HE washer:

1. Choose the Right OxiClean Product: LG HE washers require a specific type of OxiClean designed for high-efficiency washers. Look for products labeled “OxiClean HE” or “OxiClean for High-Efficiency Washers.”

2. Load Your Washer: Load your LG HE washer with the dirty laundry.

3. Add Detergent: Add your regular laundry detergent to the detergent dispenser.

4. Add OxiClean: Add the recommended amount of OxiClean HE to the bleach dispenser. Do not add OxiClean directly to the clothes, as it can damage fabrics.

5. Select Wash Cycle: Select the appropriate wash cycle for your laundry. For heavily soiled or stained items, choose a cycle with a longer wash time or higher water temperature.

6. Start the Washer: Start the wash cycle as usual. OxiClean will dissolve in the water and begin working to remove stains and odors.

Benefits of Using OxiClean in LG HE Washers

• Enhanced Stain Removal: OxiClean’s active ingredients break down and remove tough stains, leaving your clothes looking brighter and cleaner.

• Odor Elimination: OxiClean helps eliminate odors caused by bacteria and other sources, leaving your laundry smelling fresh.

• Whiter Whites: OxiClean’s whitening agents help keep white fabrics bright and prevent yellowing.

• Improved Cleaning Efficiency: OxiClean boosts the cleaning power of your detergent, allowing you to use less detergent and still achieve great results.

Tips for Using OxiClean in LG HE Washers

• Follow the Instructions Carefully: Always follow the instructions on the OxiClean HE package for the recommended amount to use based on the size of your load.

• Avoid Overloading: Overloading your washer can prevent OxiClean from circulating properly and reduce its effectiveness.

• Use OxiClean as a Pre-Treater: For stubborn stains, apply OxiClean HE directly to the stain and let it sit for 10-15 minutes before washing.

• Do Not Use Chlorine Bleach: Do not use chlorine bleach with OxiClean, as it can damage fabrics.

Troubleshooting

• OxiClean Not Dissolving: If OxiClean is not dissolving properly, check if the water temperature is too low. OxiClean dissolves best in warm or hot water.

• Stains Not Removed: If stains are not being removed, try increasing the amount of OxiClean used or soaking the items in OxiClean solution before washing.

• Fabric Damage: If you notice any fabric damage after using OxiClean, rinse the items thoroughly and contact the manufacturer for assistance.
