Like my mega efficient Bosch dish washer, that cant wash dishes
unless they are clean to start with.

When my dishwasher seems to not wash properly, I usually find bits of
rice in the jets.

I've got a Bosch dishwasher, about 3 yrs old, it washes much better
than the old AEG. Even on the most energy and water efficient
programme it normally gets oven casserole dishes clean as well, unless
really baked on stuff (and the instructions tell you to not rinse
dishes)


My Bosch dishwasher instructions say


It is not necessary to rinse the dishes under running water.


so does ours, but practical experience had led us to wash off rice since it
clog either the jets or the filter.

Oh yes, I scrape off food remains.

But ours is quite specific in telling you not to (as opposed to it not
being necessary). It can mess up the way it senses how much washing is
required or something.
