Tip 3: Utilize the Detergent Dispenser Properly
Dishwasher detergent is essential for achieving clean dishes, but it's equally important to use it effectively. Always place your detergent in the designated dispenser and make sure to close the lid. This is because most dishwashers are designed to release detergent at precise moments during the washing cycle for optimal cleaning.
For added effectiveness, consider filling both compartments if your machine allows it. The pre-wash detergent can tackle surface food residues immediately, providing your dishes with a cleaner start before the main wash takes over.
