Dishwasher has a bad smell, with musty or rotten odours when the door is opened.

Safety first: Turn off the appliance before cleaning internal parts.

• Deep clean filters: Remove and scrub all filters with hot soapy water.
• Clean sump: Wipe out the sump area and remove any trapped food or sludge.
• Clean door seals: Wipe the door gasket and around the door edges with a mild disinfectant.
• Run hot cleaning cycle: Use a dishwasher cleaner or a cup of white vinegar on the top rack and run the hottest program.
• Improve usage habits: Rinse heavily soiled dishes lightly before loading and run a hot cycle at least once a week.
