Leaks and Safe Shutoff
Hand soap, dish soap or laundry detergent can make a dishwasher over-suds and spill water onto the floor; use only automatic dishwasher detergent. Source: Whirlpool - How to Fix a Leaking Dishwasher
Before inspecting or working on a dishwasher, unplug it or switch off its circuit breaker. Source: Whirlpool - How to Fix a Leaking Dishwasher
To keep dirty water from siphoning back into the dishwasher, the drain hose is run in a high loop (at least 32 inches high in GE's instructions) or through an air gap; an air gap is called for when local code requires it or when the drain connection sits less than 18 inches above the floor.
