Washer-dryer emits a strong mouldy or musty odour from the drum.

Safety first: Unplug the appliance before cleaning internal parts.

• Step 1 – Run maintenance wash: Run an empty 90°C cotton cycle with a washing machine cleaner or 1–2 cups of white vinegar to kill bacteria and dissolve residues.
• Step 2 – Clean door seal: Wipe the Fagor door gasket folds with a cloth soaked in mild bleach solution. Remove lint and slime.
• Step 3 – Clean detergent drawer: Remove the drawer and wash it thoroughly. Clean the housing with a brush to remove mould.
• Step 4 – Improve ventilation: Leave the door and drawer slightly open between uses to allow drying and prevent odour build-up.
