Possible Causes

Normal expansion of metal panels, Loose internal brackets, Slightly warped cavity panels, Runners or shelves not seated correctly

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off the oven and allow it to cool before checking inside.

  • Check for loose parts: Ensure shelves, side supports, and trays are firmly seated and not rattling.
  • Tighten fixings: With the oven removed from the cabinet, tighten accessible screws on side panels and internal brackets.
  • Understand normal behaviour: Some mild clicking from expansion is normal and not a fault, but loud or sharp bangs may indicate loose components that should be secured.
