How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: If smoke is heavy, turn off the oven and ventilate the kitchen. Keep children away.

  • Inspect cavity: After cooling, check for spills on elements and oven floor. Clean with appropriate oven cleaner.
  • Avoid foil contact: Remove any foil or liners that may be touching elements or blocking airflow.
  • Burn-off cycle: After cleaning, run the oven empty at a moderate temperature to burn off residues.

Persistent burning smell without visible residue may indicate overheating components and should be investigated further.
