bleach, but you don't just need to clean the seal, you need to clean the whole thing!

Get some " HG [[http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HG-Hagesan-Service-Engineer-2-x-100ml_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQitemZ220113867341 Service Engineer" and follow the instructions.

Remove the drawer, and get it thoroughly clean, you'll be amazed by how much gunk gets caught in there (look at the back where the drawer goes as well).

Use powder rather than liquid, as it contains bleaching agents, and leaves less residue.

Run a hot (60 deg or greater ) wash once a week.

Always leave the drawer and door slightly open to allow air to circulate.
