- Clean the interior regularly: Wipe down the interior of the dishwasher with a damp cloth regularly. Use a non-abrasive cleaner to remove any stubborn stains.
- Check the dishwasher filters: Remove and clean the dishwasher filters regularly. Depending on the model, the filters may need to be cleaned once a month or more frequently.
- Run hot water before starting the dishwasher: Before starting a cycle, run the hot water in the sink until it's hot. This helps the dishwasher to start with hot water, which is essential for cleaning dishes effectively.
- Load the dishwasher properly: Avoid overloading the dishwasher and make sure that dishes are loaded properly. Check the manufacturer's instructions for loading recommendations.
- Use the right detergent: Always use the right dishwasher detergent, and avoid using too much. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for detergent usage.
- Check the spray arm: Make sure that the spray arm is not clogged with food debris. If it is, remove it and clean it thoroughly.
