Hi-Temp Scrub

add a rinse. Higher water temperatures and an extra rinse helps
clean tough soil. Hi-Temp Scrub, with the Heavy cycle, heats the
water in the main wash and the prewash. Hi-Temp Scrub, with

This option adds heat, water and wash time to the cycle.

Hi-Temp Scrub is an option with the Heavy and Normal
cycles.

may need towel drying.

Dry is an option with all other cycles.
