The pre-wash function in LG washing machines is a feature that allows users to pre-treat heavily soiled or stained clothing before the main wash cycle begins. It provides an additional phase in the washing process, targeting tough stains and ensuring better cleaning results. The pre-wash cycle is designed to enhance the cleaning power and efficiency of the laundry routine by loosening tough stains, making them easier to remove during the main wash cycle. This feature is particularly useful for treating heavily soiled items and stains without the need for hand washing and the use of additional cleaners and detergents. The pre-wash cycle typically involves alternating between agitating and spinning motions to help get the detergent deep into the clothing, which improves cleaning and stain removal. Additionally, the pre-wash cycle may use more water to ensure proper cleaning and removal of stains, resulting in a longer run time compared to the normal cycle.
