How do you get rid of burnt wood smell from dishwasher?
1. Identify and Remove the Source of the Smell.
- Disconnect your dishwasher from the power supply.
- Remove the inside dishracks.
- Look at the bottom of the dishwasher and you should see a filter cover - twist it off.
- Below the filter cover is the filter - remove it by lifting it up slightly and pulling it towards you.
- Check for any burnt bits of food on the filter, wash the filter in hot soapy water, rinse and set aside.
2. Clean the Sump
- Remove any large pieces of food stuck in the sump.
- Fill a measuring cup with about 2 cups of white vinegar.
- Pour the vinegar into the bottom of the dishwasher.
- Allow the vinegar to sit for about 30 minutes.
- Sprinkle about a cup of baking soda over the vinegar.
- Let the baking soda and vinegar solution bubble and fizz for 30 minutes.
- Wash and re-install the filter and run the dishwasher on the longest and hottest cycle.
3. Leave Dishwasher Door Open
- After the cleaning cycle is complete, the dishwasher should be mostly deodorized.
- Leave the dishwasher door open to allow any residual moisture and cooking odors to air out.
- It is recommended that you repeat the cleaning process every month to prevent odours from building up.
