Odor
This odor is caused by the rubber
attached to the washing machine.
•
It is the normal odor of new rubber
and will disappear after the machine
has been run a few times.
If the rubber door gasket and door
seal area are not cleaned regularly,
odors can occur from mold or
foreign substances.
•
Be sure to clean the gasket and door
seal regularly and check under the
door seal for small items when
unloading the washer.
Odors can occur if foreign
substances are left in the drainage
pump filter.
•
Be sure to clean the drainage pump
filter regularly.
Odors can occur if the drainage
hose is not properly installed,
causing siphoning (water flowing
back inside the washing machine).
•
When installing the drainage hose,
be sure that it doesn’t become
kinked or blocked.
Using the dry function, odors can
occur from lint and other laundry
matter sticking to the heater. (Dryer
model only)
•
This is not a malfunction.
A particular odor can occur from
drying wet clothes with hot air.
(Dryer model only)
•
The odor will disappear after a short
while.
