Stain PreTreat
(Not all features are on all models)
The Stain PreTreat feature allows you to indicate what stains are on the garments in your load. This feature incorporates a patent
pending treatment method. An initial water fill is performed at a temperature tailored to the stain type selected and to an amount
which enables a concentrated cleaning step. A stain scrubbing period, followed by an active soak, is conducted to effectively treat
the stain. Then additional water is added to the selected temperature and the wash phase is conducted for the cycle selected.
This feature can be applied to most wash cycles as described in the cycle guide.
To use Stain PreTreat:
1. Select the desired wash cycle.
2. Select the stain to be treated under the Stain PreTreat options.
