You could do as Washingpowder suggests or you can add a prewash to the program, since the prewash starts with a cold fill, heats the water to about warm, and then the next fill will take in hot water, and depending on your incoming water temperature the heater will take the temp to the setting and then maintain the temperature throughout the wash.
Keep in mind that you will not get much heating in the Normal program - at least I don't. On my machine, the heater runs for the first 13 minutes of the wash and is never heard from again during the wash. This may not matter if you are supplying 120F water and then I guess the heater will run for a total of 13 minutes throughout the wash. Since I am not supplying 120F I don't really use the Normal program for much of anything, plus I don't want to spin everything at 1600rpms.
