Prewash
Prewash is an extra wash before
the main wash. Use it for heavily soiled
clothes or for clothes with a care label
that recommends prewashing before
washing. Be sure to add high-efficiency
detergent, or the proper wash additive
to the prewash dispenser.
Extra Rinse
Use an extra rinse when additional
rinsing is desired to remove excess dirt
and detergent from soiled loads.
