I went to two dishwasher fires in my career. They both made a mess. Shut off water and rip unit out of cupboards. Most are only held in place with a couple screws. Carry outside to extinguish. Call insurance company (owners job). The smoke damage from a dishwasher fire can exceed $20,000 in damages. Repaint kitchen, repair/replace cupboards, dry clean clothing, carpets, drapes. What needs to be cleaned afterwards can be immense.
