A smell of smoke at the level of the door seal of the washing machine may be due to trapped laundry between the door rubber and the door or overloading the machine.
Due to the friction of the clothing against the door seal, a burnt rubber smell may occur.
Tips
Check to see if there is no clothing trapped between the door seal and the door by inspecting the seal for any damage.
Then start a short wash programme with an empty drum and check during the wash if the burnt smell persists.
Important! Stay near the machine throughout the entire washing programme.
If there is still a burnt smell around the washing machine or the washer-dryer, turn the machine off immediately and unplug it from the socket.
The problem likely indicates a technical defect.
