As the saying goes, "The dishwasher itself is not expensive, but the cost of water and electricity can be daunting," indicating that the post-purchase costs of using a dishwasher can be high, potentially deterring average households. Especially when there aren't many dishes or the stains are not heavy, using the standard wash program might lead to excessive consumption of water, electricity, and detergent. In such situations, we can choose more economical washing options, such as energy-saving wash or pre-rinse mode, which ensures the cleanliness of the dishes while reducing waste of resources. Now, let's explore the various washing programs of dishwashers to make wise choices in different situations.

1. Daily wash mode

As the name suggests, this mode is suitable for everyday use, employing standard water temperature and pressure for washing, effectively removing stains of normal grease levels. The highest temperature setting for this program is about 70 degrees, and the cleaning time usually ranges from 1 to 2 hours.

 

2. Ultra clean wash mode

This mode enhances water temperature, water pressure, and detergent dosage to tackle heavy grease or stubborn stains, such as used hot pot residue or dried-up stubborn stains. It also allows for the accumulation of dishes from three meals a day to be washed together. The highest temperature can reach 70 degrees, and the washing time is generally about two hours.


3. Smart wash mode

Based on data collected by sensors, the dishwasher can intelligently recognize the degree of dirtiness of the dishes and choose the most appropriate washing program accordingly. This mode is suitable for various types of dishes, and for the elderly, it can achieve one-key operation without the need to manually select other programs.


4. Energy-saving wash mode

This mode utilizes the difference in peak and off-peak electricity prices, extends the washing time, and at the same time, lowers the water temperature and pressure, suitable for a small number of or not very dirty dishes, to achieve the goal of saving water and electricity. The highest temperature is about 55 degrees, and the cleaning time is usually around 3 hours.


5. Pre-rinse mode

This program uses cold water for washing, suitable for the morning or noon when the dishes are not full, to prevent odors from forming. It can be pre-rinsed first, and then the dishes can be washed together at night when they have accumulated, with a cleaning time of about 15 minutes.


6. Crystal soft wash mode

The Crystal Soft Wash mode has a lower water temperature, suitable for washing glassware or other fragile items and high-end delicate dishes that are not resistant to high temperatures. Due to the weaker cleaning power, the cleaning time is between 40 to 60 degrees.


7. Instant wash mode

Using lower water temperature and flow, this mode includes a complete washing phase from pre-wash, main wash to rinse, with each stage's washing time shortened. Suitable for everyday dishes with light pollution, the highest temperature is about 60 degrees, and the cleaning time is about 1 hour.

 

8. Super fast wash mode

This mode is characterized by lower water temperature and pressure, suitable for washing dishes that are not very dirty or need urgent cleaning. The entire washing process takes about 30 minutes, and the highest temperature is about 50 degrees.

Of course, in addition to the economic modes mentioned above, there are also some washing programs for specific scenarios that are worth paying attention to. For example, the Crystal Soft Wash mode is designed for glassware and delicate dishes, using gentle water flow and lower washing temperatures to effectively protect the dishes from damage. The Instant Wash mode is suitable for situations where dishes are needed urgently, completing the washing in a short time, greatly facilitating daily life. For users with time constraints, the Super Fast Wash mode can complete the washing task in an even shorter time, although the power consumption is relatively high, it is a good choice in emergencies. By reasonably choosing and combining these washing programs, we can not only effectively reduce the operating costs of the dishwasher but also better meet different washing needs and improve the quality of life.
