- 1. Identify source: With the oven empty and heating, listen carefully to locate the area of noise.
- 2. Tighten fixings: After cooling and isolating power, tighten screws securing internal panels, fan cover, and elements.
- 3. Check element mounts: Ensure elements are properly clipped and not rubbing against panels.
- 4. Monitor: If the noise is not accompanied by performance issues or visible damage, it is usually harmless. If in doubt, have a technician inspect the oven.
