Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2014040905A1] The invention relates to a method in which a washing liquid in a suds container (3) is heated and a washing temperature of the washing liquid is set in order to wash laundry items (7) in a program-controlled domestic appliance (1) used for treating laundry items. In said method, laundry-specific and/or appliance-specific parameters, in particular the temperature of the washing liquid (6), are detected and the washing liquid is heated in dependence on the parameters in order to set a specific target temperature. The method is characterized in that, during a wetting phase (A2), in which washing liquid (6) is fed to the suds container (3) in order to wet the laundry items (7), a heating device (16) included in the domestic appliance is activated in order to heat the washing liquid (6), and the washing liquid (6) is heated by means of the heating device (16) to a wetting-phase temperature (Tn) that is lower than the target temperature (Tz) that is associated with a washing method selected by an operator. The method preferably also comprises a hot-water controller which causes the washing liquid to be heated to the target temperature during the wetting phase. The invention further relates to a corresponding domestic appliance.
