Dishwasher has a bad odor even after completing a cycle.

Safety first: Turn off power before deep cleaning internal parts.

• Clean filters and sump: Remove and wash all filters. Use a brush to clean the sump area and remove trapped food.
• Clean door seals: Wipe the door gasket and around the door edges with warm soapy water to remove residue.
• Run cleaning cycle: Use a dishwasher cleaner or a cup of white vinegar placed on the top rack and run a hot intensive program.
• Check drain hose: Inspect the drain hose for kinks or low spots where water can stagnate. Ensure a proper high loop is installed.
• Regular maintenance: Run a hot cycle with cleaner monthly and always scrape excess food from dishes before loading.
