It shouldn't ruin it. They sit in showrooms for months. What will happen is that the water trapped the the unit (with some food particles) will start to smell after a while. It you are not going to use it for and extended period put in a little bleach.

nope- seriously, new types of ruuber have been invented that don't break down as easily as older door seals and gaskets. This used to be true of appliances 15-20 years ago- but new appliances usually get replaced before their gaskets and door seals do now.

No.Mine set for longer than that when we last moved. Just put a little detergent in it and run it through a wash cycle before you start using it.The pump and seals in it should be fine.

I don't know if it will ruin it but it will get dirty and be a nice hiding place for creatures
