Unpleasant odor coming from the dishwasher, especially when opening the door after it has been closed for a while.

Safety first: Turn off power before deep cleaning internal components.

• Thoroughly clean filters and sump: Remove all filters and scrub with hot soapy water. Remove any trapped food in the sump.
• Clean door seals: Wipe the door gasket and around the door edges with a mild bleach solution or dishwasher cleaner.
• Run cleaning cycle: Run an empty hot cycle with a dishwasher cleaner or a cup of white vinegar on the top rack (if manufacturer allows).
• Improve drainage: Ensure the Midea drain hose has a proper high loop to prevent backflow from the sink.
