What You Will Need:

Step 1 - The Simple Way

To begin - the simplest way to use the cleaner is to empty a single sachet into an empty machine.

Step 2 - Find The Worst Affected Areas

If you have a bigger problem especially linked with mold and bacteria - which usually builds up within the dispenser drawer, the spray jets or door seal, another great way of using the cleaner is to empty a sachet into an empty spray bottle with some hot water.

Step 3 - Spray and Scrub

With your new, full bottle of washing machine cleaner ready begin spraying the infected areas generously and work it in with a cleaning brush. If the tainted area is really bad you can repeat this process.

Step 4 - Leave No Cleaner Behind

To limit wastage - pour the remainder of your solution into the machine and place it on a hot wash cycle. The cleaner will then work through your entire appliance - helping to loosen and remove any limescale, mold and detergent build-ups.

Or if the problem is only minor you can leave the remaining cleaner in the bottle for another time.

For Use on a Dishwasher

For cleaning your dishwasher the process is the same yet slightly different. Using the solution in your spray bottle - you can again spray around the door seal and place your dishwasher onto a standard cycle.

Step 5 - Let it Run...For 1 Minute

Allow your dishwasher to run for about a minute or until your hear the appliance to begin to fill with water - then empty the remaining solution into the machine.

So there you have it - after following the steps above you should be now be greeted by a clean and mold free appliance. Remembering that this cleaner is perfect for both a washing machine and dishwasher but please note - it is advised to perform this type of cleaning process at least once a month.
