  2.CLB5R Follow instructions on how to unclog a drain using a commercial product.

1. Put the following instructions in the correct order:
• G)  After clearing clog with Drano® Max Gel Clog Remover, follow up monthly with Drano® Prevention to prevent future clogs.
• B)  Before going on to the second step, lock cap, pushing down on cap and screwing on tightly. 
• A)  First, carefully push down on childproof cap with palm of hand and turn cap counterclockwise. Don't squeeze bottle or splash product. (Clean up any spills at once.) 
• F)  For garbage disposal drains, follow steps two through four. If drain does not clear, do not turn on disposal since Drano® Max Gel Clog Remover may splash back. Consult plumber. 
• E)  For tough problems, allow 30 minutes. Flush with hot water. Repeat steps two, three, and four if necessary. 
• C)  Second, for use on clogged or slow-running drains, pour one half of the bottle (32 oz. size; one fourth of the 64 oz. size) slowly over drain. For extremely slow-running drains or complete clogs, pour in entire contents of 32 oz. bottle or one half of the 64 oz. bottle. 
• D)  Third, allow to work for 15 minutes. 


2. What is a cheaper and more effective way of dealing with clogged drains? If your uncle is about to buy some Drano® product to unclog a drain at home, how will you advise him? Record your 60-second advice on Chirbit.com.                        1)  Pour ¼ cup of baking soda and 1 cup white vinegar into the drain. If pouring hot water into the drain did not unclog it, use baking soda and vinegar to remove excessive gunk.

    2)  My advice is that Drano® products are a great way to make clog-causing gunk disappear. The Drano® formula powerfully attacks and dissolves clogs without harming your plastic or metal pipes. Just remember to keep hands, face and children away from drains while using Drano®. Also, never use a plunger during or after use of a Drano® product. The formula may still be present in the drain and splash-back could occur.

    3.  Ask yourself: Did you interpret sequence and location signals (such as first, next and before); and follow instructions and directions by responding with actions as required to complete task?
       Yes, I did it.I think to grasp the gist firstly is most important for completing task.
