Dishwasher has a bad smell, musty or rotten odor inside.

Safety first: Use gloves when cleaning dirty filters and sump.

• 1. Thoroughly clean filters: Remove and scrub all filters with hot water and a brush.
• 2. Clean door seals and edges: Wipe the door gasket and inner door edges with a mild detergent solution to remove slime.
• 3. Run a cleaning cycle: Use a dishwasher cleaner or a cup of dishwasher-safe descaler on the hottest program with the machine empty.
• 4. Improve usage habits: Rinse heavy food residues from dishes, run regular hot cycles, and leave the door slightly ajar after use to allow drying.
