Miele dishwashers rely solely on fresh water and can wash crockery with as little as 6 litres of water in the Automatic programme – much less than the contents of a sink. With this feature, Miele has reduced water consumption by 85 % over the last 30 years. Electricity consumption has also been reduced to new all-time lows: in the ECO programme, Miele dishwashers achieve energy consumption values of just 0.54 kWh.
