Begin the deep cleaning by adding 2 cups of pure baking soda directly into the washing machine's tub. Close the washer door. Select either the 'Normal' cycle or, if available on your machine, the 'Tub Clean' option. Set the water temperature to the hottest possible setting. Start and run the chosen cycle. The baking soda will act as a mild abrasive, helping to scrub the inner components and tub, while also effectively fighting odors during this cycle.
