and uses the same options in the next wash cycle, unless you

Soak & Scour
Select this option to pre-soak your dishes for 4 hours in your
dishwasher instead of pre-soaking them in the sink. When you
select Soak & Scour, the dishwasher fills and then sprays for 8
minutes. It will then pause for 16 minutes while dishes soak, and
then spray for 90 seconds to keep dishes wet. Pausing for 16
minutes and spraying for 90 seconds are repeated for 4 hours. At
the end of the 4 hours, the dishwasher drains and then starts the
cycle you have selected. This pre-soaking uses only one
additional fill of water and does not require special detergent. Use
standard detergent per cycle recommendations.
NOTE:
Soak & Scour is an option for the Pots & Pans cycle. If Hi-
Temp Scour is also selected, only the Soak & Scour option is
actually used.
Hi-Temp Scour
Select this option to increase the target water temperature during
the wash portions of the cycle. Hi-Temp Scour raises the target
water temperature to 145ºF (63ºC) in the main wash. In the Pots &
Pans cycle, Hi-Temp Scour also raises the target water
temperature to 135°F (57°C) in the pre-wash. Heating the water
helps improve washing results. Hi-Temp Scour is useful when
loads contain baked-on food.
This option adds heat and wash time to the cycle. When Hi-Temp
Scour is used with the Pots & Pans cycle, water is also added to
the cycle in an additional rinse.
NOTE:
Hi-Temp Scour is an option with Pots & Pans and Normal
cycles.
SANI RINSE Option
Select this option to raise the water temperature in the final rinse
to approximately 160°F (70°C) for 10 minutes. The SANI RINSE
option adds heat and time to the cycle. In the Normal and Pots &
Pans cycles, 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:
The SANI RINSE option can be selected with the Pots &
Pans and Normal cycles.
Air Dry
Select this energy-saving option to dry without heat. Air drying 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:
Air Dry is an option with all cycles, except Rinse Only.
