How to care for dishwasher properly?

Ideas to care dishwasher properly:

1. Clean the filter of the dishwasher:

Dishwasher filter inspection and be cleaned regularly. Bring up the manual and follow it, about how to properly remove and clean this filter. If there are any holes or other damage to the filter, you have to replace it immediately to protect the dishwasher’s pump and motor seals from damage.

2. Run hot water before starting the dishwasher:

Before starting the cycle, turn on the faucet and run until the water is hot to the touch. This means your first dishwasher fill cycle will be hot, instead of cold, until it finally makes its way over from the hot water heater. This is an especially important tip in winter time, as it takes longer for the water to heat up.

3. Dishwasher’s water is Level;

If your dishwasher is not level, it could leak. To check, open the door and place an air-bubble level along the edge inside. If the dishwasher isn’t level, raise or lower either side by adjusting its “feet” or add a wedge to balance correctly.
