use too much detergent
If you ever notice suds or soapy water leaking from your dishwasher, don't be surprised. This means you have either added the wrong soap or detergent or added too much detergent. This has a huge impact on the cleaning cycle and can even damage the dishwasher. Therefore, only add the amount of detergent to the dishwasher as directed. Remember that adding more soap or detergent will not necessarily get the dishes cleaner.

Mistake of not cleaning the drain filter
Dishwashers have a drain filter that prevents large food particles or dirt from entering the drain. In such a situation, if it is not cleaned for a long time or properly, it can damage the dishwasher. Even your dishwasher can break down.

don't use too much
Many times people think that a machine also needs rest to function properly. This is true to a large extent, but it does not mean that you should stop using it. Many times, due to not using the machine much, the life of the machine starts reducing. Therefore, keep in mind that you give rest to the machine but not so much that it stops working.

Do not leave the dishwasher running for extended periods of time.
Not leaving the dishwasher open for some time after using it can not only lead to the smell of dirty dishes in the dishwasher, but bacteria can also accumulate in it. Additionally, the dishwasher can break down quickly. Remember to leave the dishwasher open for some time after using it. By doing this, the smell of dirty utensils goes away and also reduces the risk of fungus developing in them. This not only reduces the risk of any kind of bacteria accumulation in the dishwasher, but also reduces the risk of it getting damaged.
