Just make sure you always have a downward angle on the water relative to the siding, you don't want to push water up underneath it.
I'd use dish soap or something similar for this (unless you know what caused the problem and it indicates a particular solvent would be best).

Yes to what Mitch said. I've had to fix way too many interior walls and ceilings after people used pressure washers on the outside of vinyl sided houses.

If soap and water doesn't get it, try JoMax, sold at box stores and others. It is made specifically for vinyl siding. Apply it with a pump up sprayer, then medium force from the PW in a downward angle as mentioned.
