The instructions always specify the water consumption in different modes, so it can be controlled independently. Some models have a system Aqua Sensor / Water Sensor / Sensor system, which determines the clarity of the water after pre-rinsing. If the water is reasonably clean, the machine uses it for the next wash cycle.

Practical tips:
