Hi, for the past week or so, I've noticed my washing hasn't smelt fresh when I get it out the machine, but instead smells a bit stale, like when you leave wet washing for some time without hanging it to dry.
I've got a Zanussi Lindo300 machine with a 10kg drum and it's just over a year old. I've used Dr Beckmann washing machine cleaner and it made no difference. I've also tried reducing the load and also trying a different brand of detergent (I normally use Bold liquitabs), but again it didn't make a difference.
There isn't a filter on the machine but in the user manual it tells you how to clean the inlet hose and valve filter, which I've never done before on any other machine. I'm wondering if maybe the hose is blocked or something, but I'm not strong enough to pull the machine out to have a look and don't have anyone who could help. I'll try to contact Zanussi tomorrow to see if they can advise, but in the meantime, does anyone have any suggestions as to what the problem might be?
Thank you.
