Rinse Hold-Washing Machines

This prevents the clothes from creasing while they lie in the machine. This feature is particularly useful while washing delicate clothes (synthetics, silks, etc.), which tend to crease more and require to be removed immediately after the spin cycle. The rinse hold feature does not allow the water to drain from the drum after the end of the cycle. Whenever it is convenient for the user to empty the drum, the rinse hold button can be pressed again and the machine will proceed to drain the water and start the spin cycle (drying).
