Instructions for use:
- Washing machines: Use only in washing machines with stainless steel drums. Add 200g to an empty machine. Start machine 60c.
- Dishwashers: Fill the detergent tablet container with citric acid, add the rest of the package to the base of an empty dishwasher. Then run the machine on a normal washing program.
- Kettles: Half fill the kettle with water and bring it to the boil. Disconnect, add about 100g of the sachet and set aside for 15 minutes. Rinse thoroughly. Wipe the outside of the kettle. Wipe up any spills immediately. Repeat if necessary.
