Apparently pre-rinsing confuses the dishwasher or something. Not doing it leaves me with residue all over the other dishes though 🤷

    It wouldn’t waste more water, just more would go through the machine. If the pre-heating is necessary for it to work properly, the regulations need to take that into account, since that water is being wasted whether the operator runs it from the tap or the machine does it automatically.

      Most people don’t run their hot tap prior to running their dishwasher. It’s really only if you notice an issue with your dishes being fully cleaned that you would even need to do it
