Additional advice
- To ensure the proper functioning of your dishwasher, I advise you to do this deep cleaning every 2 months.
- Always clean the filter and the grid BEFORE doing a deep cleaning of your dishwasher.
- Indeed, if they are not maintained properly, the clogged filter and grid can prevent the proper drainage of water and the proper cleaning of your dishes.
- To clean them, remove the filter and the grid, then clean them on both sides with a brush, hot water and a little washing-up liquid. Ideally, this cleaning of the filter and the grid can be repeated once a month.
- And to maximize the life of your dishwasher, also make sure to regularly rub the door seal with a sponge and clean the wash arms (also called wash arms or nozzles). 'aspersion) every 6 months.
Why does it work?
- White vinegar : Thanks to its powerful anti-lime properties, white vinegar naturally removes tart deposits from inside your dishwasher.
- Baking soda: it has deodorizing properties that neutralize bad odors from pipes and stagnant water.
