Possible Causes
High-mass oven cavity retaining heat, Blocked vents reducing airflow, Weak cooling fan, High ambient kitchen temperature
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety First: The cooling fan is designed to run after use; this is normal unless excessively long or noisy.
- Check vents: Ensure all oven vents are clear and not blocked by cabinetry or objects.
- Fan performance: Listen for unusual noises from the cooling fan. If airflow seems weak or the fan is noisy, replace the cooling fan motor.
- Usage pattern: After very high-temperature or long baking cycles, expect longer cool-down times. This can be normal.
