Reason Solution
• Do not overload. Check that the
washing machine is draining properly
to extract adequate water from the
load. Clothes load is too small to
tumble properly. Add a few towels.
• Turn off water supply tap.
• It is the normal odor of new rubber
and will disappear after the machine
has been run a few times.
• Be sure to clean the gasket and door
seal regularly and check under the
door seal for small items when
unloading the washer.
• Be sure to clean the drainage pump
filter regularly.
• When installing the drainage hose,
be sure that it doesn't become
kinked or blocked.
• This is not a malfunction.
• The odor will disappear after a short
while.
