How to Use
Pour Downy into the washing machine's softener dispenser, or directly into the rinse water if your machine has no dispenser. Use the built-in measuring lines on the cap: fill just below line 1 for a medium load, to line 2 for an HE large load, or to line 3 for extra softness and freshness. Do not pour it directly onto clothes, since this can cause spotting, and do not use it on children's sleepwear or garments labeled flammable.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the 2in1 formula in Downy April Fresh do?
The 2in1 name refers to combining two functions in one product: fabric softening and long-lasting fragrance. Instead of adding a separate scent booster on top of a plain softener, this jug is formulated to deliver both benefits from a single measured pour into the rinse cycle or softener dispenser of your washing machine.
Is Downy April Fresh safe for HE washing machines?
Yes, the label states this formula is HE compatible and safe for high-efficiency washing machines as well as standard top-load machines. Add it to the fabric softener dispenser compartment rather than the detergent compartment, and use the cap's measuring lines to choose the right amount for a medium or HE large load.
Can Downy April Fresh be used on all fabrics?
It is intended for most washable fabrics, including cotton, polyester, nylon, and blends. The manufacturer states it should not be used on children's sleepwear or garments labeled flammable, since fabric softener can reduce flame resistance on those items. Always check the garment care label first, and read the jug for the full list of precautions.
How many loads does the 150 fl oz bottle provide?
The label rates this 150 fl oz jug for up to 257 medium loads at the standard measuring line. Actual load count will vary with load size, soil level, and how much softener you use per the cap's markings. The jug's press-and-pour spout is designed to make repeated dosing easier over that many uses.
