The house we moved into has a dishwasher, and I am wondering if there are any annual maintenance procedures for it. In googling, all that I came up with was making sure the spinning propellers are cleaned every now and again and wash it with vinegar occasionally to remove any mildew smells.
This one is probably at least 10 years old and we do not have a manual and the label to identify the make model was probably removed years ago so I do not have any identifying tags to specifically research the brand.
Should I pull it out from the counter, or look for a filter to clear, or do I need to oil any parts occasionally aside from the door hinge which I already did?
Or is it best just leave it alone.

Dishwashers are intended for permanent installation and there are no parts behind it that you will need to service.
The only things you might want to clean/treat are inside the unit. Best to leave it alone otherwise. If you can't remove it easily, it wasn't meant to be removed by household users.
