rinse cycle
Washer's cleansing phase
The rinse cycle is the stage of a washing machine's operation when clean water flushes detergent and loosened dirt from clothes.
Most wash programs include multiple rinse cycles.
The term extends to dishwashers and any automated cleaning process: The dishwasher is on its final rinse cycle.
