What is Smart Start?
Smart Start is an innovative feature that automatically selects the optimal start time for your connected Bosch appliances based on your energy & time preferences. 1 It works seamlessly in the background to ensure that your appliances operate when energy resources are the most eco-friendly and/or cost-effective.
Use renewable energy.
One of the standout benefits of Smart Start is its commitment to sustainability. With environmental concerns at the forefront of modern living, utilizing renewable energy sources is critical. Smart Start maximises the use of available green energy by scheduling your appliance’s operation during peak availability times. This not only helps reduce your carbon footprint but also supports the transition to a more sustainable energy grid.
Save on electricity costs.
If you have a flexible energy tariff you can make the most out of it with your Smart Start houshold appliances.

By running at the most cost-efficient times, Smart Start allows you to enjoy lower energy bills without compromising on performance or results.
