@jayson maybe leave the door open for a while and try some lemon juice? X

Clean again and use Milton steralizing fuid or tablets or bicarbonate of soda. They both nutralize smells

Answer 5

Put a cheap jar of coffee inside it as it stops the smell if unplugged when in storage

@chevrette I’m not sure. I got it today. And I don’t know how long it was defrosted for. X

If it’s second hand, it’s probably been closed for a while. You might just need to air it for a bit before switching on. Or is it new.?

@chevrette it’s second hand. It’s outside atm with a lid open so I’ll see what it’s like in an hour or so x

@jayson May be best to leave it overnight

Id use flash bicarb spray but to be honest they do smell if not in used hot soapy water wash over with flash bi carb(or bi carb and lemon mix) then tuen on it should be fine x
