Oven emits a burning smell or smoke during normal cooking (not during first use or pyrolysis).

Safety first: If heavy smoke appears, switch off the oven and ventilate the room. Do not leave the oven unattended.

Inspection:

• Once cool, inspect the cavity, especially around elements and the base, for spilled food or grease. Clean thoroughly with appropriate oven cleaner.
• Remove the rear inner panel and check that insulation is not touching the circular element.
• Inspect wiring near elements for signs of melting or charring; repair or replace as needed.
• Run the oven empty at a moderate temperature for 15–20 minutes to burn off any remaining residue while monitoring for smoke.
