To prevent mould and mildew buildup in your front load washing machine, follow these steps:

• Leave the door open after each wash to allow air to circulate and dry the drum, preventing trapped moisture.
• Wipe the door seal and gasket to remove excess water after each wash, reducing moisture buildup.
• Clean the detergent dispenser regularly to avoid residue that can cause mould.
• Run a cleaning cycle monthly with a machine cleaner or vinegar and baking soda mix to prevent mould.
• Opt for high-efficiency (HE) detergent and avoid overloading soap to minimise residue buildup.

However, always check your machine’s weight capacity and use a gentle cycle, allowing enough space for thorough cleaning.
