Pots & Pans provides temperature checks in the main
wash and final rinse. If necessary, the cycle is inter-
rnpted to heat water to the proper temperature; the
HEATING DELAY light is illuminated during this

more difficult to remove food soils (such as starches
and fats) and to boost drying results.
