Remojar y Pre-Lavar (Soak & Prewash) Cycle

Remojar (Soak)

• Use Remojar (Soak) to treat heavily soiled or
stained items. Remojar provides 3 minutes of
agitation and 12 minutes of soaking time. The

load then advances into the Pre-Lavar portion of

the cycle.

a normal wash cycle. If desired, use bleach or a
soaking agent for colorfast items.

• The Remojar water temperature is the same as
the rinse water temperature selected.

• Follow Remojar with a complete wash cycle

using the normal amount of detergent.

Pre-Lavar (Prewash)

• Use Pre-Lavar (Prewash) when soaking is not

necessary. Pre-Lavar helps remove protein-based

stains such as milk, grass and blood. It also helps

loosen soils before washing. Pre-Lavar provides

3 minutes of wash agitation.

• Use the amount of detergent recommended for
a normal wash cycle.

• The Pre-Lavar water temperature is the same as
the wash water temperature selected. To avoid

setting protein stains, select cold water.

using the normal amount of detergent.

automatically advance from the Regular cycle to the

water when an automatic extra rinse is not desired.

Energy Saving Tips

• Wash full loads. Oversize loads use extra energy.
Undersize loads waste energy.

• When small wash loads cannot be avoided, use
lower water levels.

• Select the appropriate cycle and time for each
load. Shorten wash times for lightly soiled loads.

• To reduce drying time, select a fast spin speed to
remove more water from heavy items such as
towels and jeans.

• Use warm water to wash most loads. Limit hot
water washes to heavily soiled and white loads.

Use cold water for lightly soiled items and
rinsing.

• Operate the washer in early morning and late
evening when utility demands are low.

• Follow proper laundry procedures to avoid
rewashing.
