Oven emits a strong burning smell or smoke during normal cooking (not first use or self‑clean).

Safety first: If you see flames, switch off the oven and keep the door closed. Disconnect power once safe.

• Inspect cavity: When cool, check for heavy grease or burnt food on elements and cavity surfaces. Clean thoroughly with appropriate oven cleaner (avoid spraying directly on elements or sensors).
• Check wiring: Remove rear cover and inspect wiring and connectors for signs of overheating or burning smell. Replace any burnt connectors and damaged wires.
• Fan motor: If smell seems to come from the top/rear and fan noise changes, inspect the fan motor for overheating and replace if necessary.
• Test after cleaning: Run the oven empty at moderate temperature for 20–30 minutes to burn off remaining residues, ensuring good ventilation.
