Cycle time for Neff dishwasher?

[NickStone]

Does anyone know how long a 'normal' programme on a Neff dishwasher should take? I have a Neff integrated model S44E43NOGB and the thing seems to run for hours before finishing. I've had a Neff before and I don't think it took this long. I don't want to ask for a service visit if there's nothing wrong but it's occured to me that the machine might be getting stuck and running the programme twice. Many thanks.

Thanks. I already have the instruction book but I can't find the information I need in there. I'll have another look and maybe send Neff an email.

Well over 2 hours if it's like mine. I think it is to do with being grade A energy efficient: They use the minimum amout of heat and water at the expense of time.

Thanks, Mikey. You've put my mind at rest. I timed it today and it does take at least two hours.

No problem. I just put mine on and the display says 131 minutes to go. Frustrating but at least we are saving the planet.
