We're glad you love the effectiveness our Dawn Powerwash has on your dishes, Sunner. However, we're concerned if the spray is triggering your asthma, and also if you're finding the bottle difficult to spray. Our products go through stringent quality controls to ensure each meets our high standards. As well, every ingredient as well as the complete formula, is fully evaluated to be safe when used as directed. Although this is not a health concern, some consumers may experience a temporary tickle in their nose or throat when spraying Dawn Dish Spray. To avoid this occurring, use the product in a well-ventilated area and spray the product away from your face. It may also help to hold dishes at arm’s length to increase the distance between the spray and the nose and mouth. If you're experiencing any symptoms causing concern, we recommend that you discontinue use and seek advice from your docter. To achieve the best cleaning results, be sure to scrape all chunks of food and grease from cookware before applying the spray. For heavily soiled dishes, let the spray foam suds sit for 3-4 minutes. Your safety is always our very top priority, and we’d like to learn more about your experience to further help. Please give our Dawn Team a call at 1-800-725-3296 from 9AM – 6PM EST Monday – Friday.

We're sorry the sprayer on your Dawn Dish Spray isn't working with the ease that is expected. Our products go through stringent quality controls to ensure each meets our high standards, and we'd like to share a few tips that may help. Because the spray bottle is sold with the trigger in the locked position to prevent accidental spraying while in the warehouse or store, it's important to make sure the trigger is unlocked before you go to use it. There is a cutout in the white plastic that shows a yellow marking at the top of the sprayer that needs to be aligned with the matching cutout on the tip of the nozzle. When those cutouts are matched up where you see a yellow circular shape, then it is unlocked. Depressing the trigger while locked can damage the trigger. Also, prior to the first use, the bottle may need 3-5 full trigger pulls to begin spraying. Also, occasionally, there may be air trapped in the bottle. While squeezing the trigger, squeeze the body of the bottle. This should force out any trapped air so it will spray as intended. Your satisfaction is very important to us, and our Dawn Team is standing by if you need any further help. Just give our Dawn Team a call at 1-800-725-3296 from 9AM -- 6PM EST Monday–Friday and we'll be happy to assist you.

We're sorry you are having difficulty with your Dawn Powerwash, Karen. Our products undergo many quality checks to ensure they get to you with the best results, so we don't expect these things to happen. Make sure the trigger is unlocked. The product should be in the locked position on store shelves. A cutout in the white plastic shows a yellow marking at the top of the sprayer. The tip of the nozzle also has a cutout. It is unlocked when those cutouts are matched up, and the yellow shape is completed. It is locked when the cutouts are not matched up and the yellow shape is incomplete. To unlock the nozzle, grasp the tip of the nozzle and turn to match up the cutouts. Once unlocked and ready to spray, ensure to pull the trigger firmly and all the way for a full spray. So we can help you get back to spraying away those dirty dishes, please call us at (800) 725-3296 Monday through Friday, from 9 AM to 6 PM EST.
