My Philips Avent sterilizer has an unpleasant smell when in use

Baby milk or food residues may end up on the heating plate when the bottles are placed in the sterilizer. These residues can cause an unpleasant smell when the sterilizer is heating up. To avoid this, always clean all parts before sterilizing.

For detailed instructions, please read Do I have to wash the bottles before I put them in the sterilizer? in the user manual.
