Here are five tips about your dishwasher. First, don't pre-rinse - uses extra water and energy and will make your glassware cloudy when the detergent finally works on it. Next, the amount of detergent you use should depend on how dirty the dishes are, not how many there are. Third, you may think you know how to load, but check the manual anyway because, Four, when a load doesn't come out clean its usually because the dishwasher wasn't loaded correctly. Lastly, use the normal cycle because it is the most efficient one of all.
