Persistent bad odor from drum and laundry, even after washing

Safety: Ensure good ventilation in the laundry area when using cleaning agents.

• 1. Run maintenance wash: Run an empty 90°C cotton cycle with a washing machine cleaner or a cup of white vinegar (check manual for compatibility) to dissolve residues.
• 2. Clean door seal: Wipe the bellows, especially the folds, with a mild bleach solution or dedicated cleaner to remove mold. Rinse thoroughly.
• 3. Clean detergent drawer: Remove the drawer and scrub away deposits. Clean the housing and rinse.
• 4. Improve habits: Use the correct amount of detergent, run occasional hot washes, and leave the door and drawer slightly open between uses to dry out the interior.

Note: Severe mold on the seal may require replacing the door gasket.
