Premise: How to drain a dishwasher<br>Remove the dishes from the dishwasher and place them in the kitchen sink. [substeps] You won't be able to take apart certain parts of the dishwasher to see if there are any problems if there are dishes in the way. Make sure you store any sharp knives where they are easily seen, so someone doesn't reach into the sink and cut themselves.
Hypothesis: Before you drain the machine you must make sure that it was without encumbrance of dishes.
