Hi-Temp Scrub
Select this option to heat the water during parts of the cycle, and
add a rinse. Higher water temperatures and an extra rinse helps
clean tough soils. Hi-Temp Scrub, with the Baked On Cookware
cycle, raises the water temperature in the prewash and main
wash. Hi-Temp Scrub, with the Normal cycle, raises the water
temperature in the main wash.

and Normar cycles.

Select this option to raise the water temperature in the final rinse
to approximately 160°F (71°C) for 10 minutes. Sani Rinse adds
heat and time to the cycle. In the Normal cycle, this high-
temperature rinse sanitizes your dishes and glassware in
accordance with the NSF Protocol P153 Sanitization and
Cleaning Performance of Household Spray-Type Dishwashers.
NOTE: Baked On Cookware automatically uses this option. Sani
Rinse is an option with the Normal cycle.

Energy Saver Dry is useful when loads contain plastic dinnerware
that may be sensitive to high temperatures.
The dishes take longer to dry and some spotting can occur. For
best drying, use a liquid rinse aid. Some items (such as plastics)
may need towel drying.
NOTE: Rinse Onry automatically uses this option. Energy Saver
Dry is an option with all other cycles.
