Interior cleaning & deodorizing: You don't need to clean the interior of your dishwasher if you use it regularly. If it goes unused for a week or more and begins to mold or smell bad, you can run an empty cycle (using dishwasher detergent).
Exterior cleaning: Just clean the exterior of your dishwasher with a damp sponge and a little dish detergent.
Dish rack repairs: If the plastic coating wears off of the tines of the dish racks in your dishwasher, they may corrode and rust. Kits are available to buy so you can touch your racks up.
Filter cleaning: On many dishwashers, there's a filter near the bottom, or under the lower spray arm that needs to be cleaned regularly. If you have this sort of filter, check your owner's manual to find out how to remove and clean it. If it has holes in it, replace it to protect the pump and motor seals from particles that may be in the dishwasher.
Spray arm cleaning: Over time, the small holes in the spray arm(s) of your dishwasher may become clogged with bits of paper, toothpicks, glass, etc. Your dishwasher will do a better job of cleaning your dishes if you take a moment to clean out these small holes, from time to time.
