Try turning off the "dry" cycle and letting them air dry in the dishwasher. Heaven Forbid people should actually have to resort to the barbaric method of doing dishes by hand.
The dry heat kills bacteria and germs Maggie.
We've been oversold on household bacteria, in my opinion. I own a diswasher that I run once a week; the rest of the time I do up what few dirty dishes I accumulate daily and let them air dry on the countertop, just as I've done for several decades. And I'm still alive, rarely even catching a cold, even.
Intense . . . I never use the dry heat. I run it at night in off-peak hours and let it air dry overnight in the machine. Works just fine.
Maggie . . . Good for you. I've got a household of five and run it daily. I use more energy and water washing by hand than using a dishwasher.
