<!-- from fixya rte -->Smelly cabrio washer - how do I deodorize? - Whirlpool WTW6400SW Cabrio Washer

Use good quality deodorant

Buy the washing machine cleaning products near the laundry soaps. I believe Tide sells one.

The drain line may be clogged. May take a technician to locate and fix the issue...

Hi and welcome to FixYa, I am Kelly.

This is from the manual: (Page 7) http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/UM/200505/20050517151656187_RS21_[1].pdf

• This light indicates the recyclable deodorizer is in operation.

• Recycle the honeycomb cartridge once or twice a year (see "Cleaning the
Accessories" section)

Having read that I do not think you would want to remove the symbol. This is NORMAL operation.

For cleaning the deodorizer see page 16 of the manual.

Thanks for choosing FixYa,
Kelly

Smelly washers are common. Cabrio washers are HE and therefore use less water. By using less water, it doesn't rinse ITSELF as good as an older non-efficient machine. Things you can do to solve the problem. Buy a cleaner from Whirlpool called Affresh. It's 3 tablets that you throw in the washer without clothes and run it on the longest heavy duty cycle possible. Use the hot water setting and the longest duration. For existing smells use all 3 tablets. Then use 1 tablet every month to prevent reoccurring odors. You can also try the same type of cycle on hot water with a half of a gallon of bleach in the tub, or try it with a half of a gallon of vinegar. One of the 3 should do the trick.

you need to go to your nearest dealer to have the system deodorized. but this concern can return may need to remove components to clean with bleach solution this will cost a lot of $.
