In an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 7, a method for washing a dishwasher 2 is provided, which is applied to the dishwasher 2, and comprises the following steps:
step S1: filling water into the water tub 22 to pre-wash the dishes in the water tub 22, and discharging the water in the water tub 22 after the pre-washing is finished;
step S2: injecting water into the auxiliary water tank 21, and electrolyzing the water in the auxiliary water tank 21 by using the anode electrode 11 and the cathode electrode 12 to obtain electrolyzed water;
step S3: the electrolytic water is injected into the water tank 22 to perform secondary washing of the dishes in the water tank 22, and after the secondary washing is completed, the electrolytic water in the water tank 22 is discharged.
In one example, when the dishwasher 2 is used for washing, the dishes to be washed are placed in the tub 22 and filled in the tub 22, then the dish washing program of the dishwasher 2 is started, the dishwasher 2 pre-washes the dishes in the tub 22 to wash the food residues on the dishes, and after the pre-washing is finished, the water in the tub 22 and the washed food residues are discharged through the drain 23. Further, an external water source is injected into the subtank 21 through the water inlet pipe 24, and the water in the subtank 21 is electrolyzed by the anode electrode 11 and the cathode electrode 12 to obtain electrolyzed water. Further, the electrolyzed water in the subtank 21 is poured into the water tank 22 through the water outlet pipe 25, whereby the dishes in the water tank 22 are secondarily washed to wash the water tank 22 and the oil stains remaining on the dishes, and after the secondary washing is completed, the water and the oil stains in the water tank 22 are discharged through the water outlet pipe 23. The dishes are pre-washed and secondarily washed, thereby making the dish washer 2 wash the dishes more cleanly.
In some examples, the steps of filling water into the water tank 22 and filling water into the subtank 21 may be performed simultaneously or sequentially.
