Dishwasher Odor

Pour 1/2 cup bleach or 1 cup white vinegar in bottom of dishwasher and run through a cycle. If odor persists, examine the bottom reservoir and any areas where food particles or gunk may have collected. Wipe with paper towels to remove. Proceed with caution as you may encounter broken glass. Clogged drains or sewer lines may require a plumber.
