What is the Rinse cycle used for?
This short program rinses food residue from dishes when you are not ready to run a full wash.
It uses one or more rinses without performing the complete detergent wash and drying sequence. It is a holding cycle rather than a substitute for washing.
Choose another cycle for: Dishes that need detergent cleaning or sanitizing before use.
What this means for your load
The official model documentation identifies this cycle but does not provide a dependable single duration.
Why the time may change: The duration is usually stable, although fill and drain conditions can cause small differences.
Check the full GE GDP670SGVWW cycle table to compare other programs before starting.
When will it finish?
Use the appliance display for the current estimate. Load conditions, sensing, temperature and selected options can move the finish time.
Estimated energy and local cost
This range is calculated from the documented cycle characteristics and appliance type. It is deliberately shown as a range because load conditions, temperature selections, sensors and options change consumption.
Planning the Rinse cycle on the GDP670SGVWW
Utility cycles handle a narrower job than a full wash or dry program. Their duration still depends on options, balancing, draining and sensor decisions.
On the GE GDP670SGVWW, watch for incoming water temperature, soil sensing, heat holds and drying options. Run hot water at the sink first when the manual recommends it, and avoid blocking spray paths.
The planning range on this page is 0.08–0.3 kWh; use the ZIP or bill-rate calculator for a local cost estimate. The exact-model reference is linked from products.geappliances.com, while estimates are labeled separately.

Using the rinse cycle time on GDP670SGVWW
The Rinse cycle time page answers the clock question first; the next decision is whether this program matches what you are putting in GDP670SGVWW.
Check first: Check whether detergent, heat or drying is omitted so you do not mistake the short total for a full cycle.
The duration comes from products.geappliances.com; practical planning notes are editorial context and do not replace the manual.
