Bad odor inside the refrigerator, even after removing spoiled food.

Safety: Unplug the refrigerator before deep cleaning. Use non-abrasive, food-safe cleaners.

Steps:

• Empty and clean: Remove all food, shelves, and drawers. Wash interior surfaces with a solution of baking soda and warm water.
• Clean drain system: Flush the defrost drain with warm water and mild detergent. Clean the drain pan above the compressor.
• Replace filters: If your Gorenje model has an air or deodorizing filter, replace it according to the manual.
• Air out: Leave doors open for several hours with the unit unplugged to ventilate.
