28 Hot water connection All Miele dishwashers also have a hot water connection up to 65°C. When tested to relevant European Industry Standards, the Gentle programme, this reduces electricity consumption by more than 55% and running times by almost 10%. In the ECO programme, the energy consumption of a dishwasher is reduced by up to 0.52 kWh. All statistics and results are when tested to relevant European industry standards. Ecological responsibility At the heart of everything we do The responsibility for our environment has been a tradition at Miele for almost 120 years. We want to protect our natural environment as it is the foundation for our existence, so that we and generations to come can have a good future. True to our motto “Immer besser” (forever better), we develop domestic appliances for customers which reduce the burden on the environment and on natural resources. This begins with the selection of materials, continues with efficient production, and ends after a long appliance life with environmentally responsible recycling. Our environmental philosophy pays off: Miele’s highly efficient free-standing and built-in appliances ensure excellent performance and set standards in terms of low water- consumption and electricity-consumption values too.
