Pre Soak (on some models)
Use this option for set-in stains and soil that need extra time for
removal. Soaking in this washer is different than in a conventional
washer. The washer sprays the load with water and detergent for
4 minutes at extra-low spin speed, followed by a soak period. This
allows for the detergent to work on the soils. This is followed by
alternating periods for spray and soak. Using Presoak will extend
your wash cycle by about 14 minutes.
