Dishwasher detergent is necessary to properly clean and sanitize dirty dishes. Detergent contains abrasives to help remove food particles as well as soap to kill germs and bacteria.
Besides automatic dishwashing detergent? 3/4 teaspoon of salt and 1 tablespoon of baking soda. Place both in the dispenser and close the cap. It’s better than nothing if you don’t have detergent for the dishwasher.
Yes, I do it all the time. I usually throw in a tablet and a cup full of vinegar in my dishwasher. I find it boosts the cleaning power of the detergent and I get much cleaner dishes as a result. I also use it as my rinse aid. With this combination, I find that I don't have to run empty cleaning cycles as I almost never get any buildup from the detergent/dirty dishes. The vinegar not only helps clean the dishes, but it also keeps your dishwasher clean.
You should not use hand dishwashing detergent in your dishwasher. The suds created by the soap will spill out onto the floor and is very difficult to clean up.
I suggest running the dishwasher with detergent and about a quarter cup of laundry bleach. Let run the full cycle at high heat. Even if a dishwasher is not used often there is still moisture in it, the black is most likely some type of mold.
The best way to clean the filters of the Broan range hood fan is to put them in the dishwasher and clean with a non-phosphate detergent. To clean the surface of the hood, use a soft sponge or cloth with a mild cleanser.
If your dishwasher has self cleaning filters, there is no need to clean them. If not, you can do it yourself. Cleaning the filters is important to keep it in good condition. There is no need to clean it often. The hot water and detergent will dissolve most or all food particle. Don’t ignore the filters either. They sit snug right below the wash arm. Most are made of aluminum and can be pulled up to clean. Others need to be unlocked first. The most important thing to remember is BE GENTLE. Aluminum bends easy.
Dishwashers, by design, clean dishes. So they'll all work well, but it depends also on the type of detergent you use. anonymous@oola.com

The inside of your dishwasher should be cleaned regularly.
