Symptoms

an odour.
Are you using the appliance for the first time?
• The smell is caused by rubber material that is attached to
the appliance inside. This kind of smell is a rubber's own
smell and disappears automatically after using the
appliance several times.
Do you smell an odour during use?
• When washing the clothes, use the detergent in accordance
with the manufacturers recommendations. If you use the
detergent excessively not according to the
recommendations, undissolved detergent may accumulate
on the clothes and cause an odour.
• You can smell odours from the clothes if the clothes were
left in the appliance after drying or in the washing machine
after washing. Unload the clothes promptly at the end of
the drying or washing cycle.
• Ensure you can smell same odour in the washing machine.
If so, clean the tub of the washing machine referring to the
washing machine user manual.
• Always take care of both lint filters clean. If any residues
were left in the lint filter after drying, it may cause odours.
And also dry the lint filter completely after cleaning.
