of 3 hours. See the Cleaning the Oven section.
Strong odor An odor from the insulation around
the inside of the oven is normal for
the first few times the oven is used.
This is temporary and will go away after several uses or a
self-clean cycle.
Fan noise A convection fan may automatically
turn on and off.
This is normal. The fan is designed to operate intermittently
to maximize cooking evenness. The convection fan will
operate during preheat of the bake cycle. The fan will turn
off after the oven is heated to the set temperature. This is
normal.
A cooling fan may automatically turn
on and off.
This is normal on some models. The cooling fan will turn
off and on to cool internal parts. It may run after the oven is
turned off.
My oven door glass
appears to be "tinted" or
have a "rainbow" color. Is
this defective?
No. The inner oven glass is coated
with a heat barrier to reflect the heat
back into the oven to prevent heat
loss and keep the outer door cool
while baking.

Different cooking modes. The different cooking modes use different preheat methods
to heat the oven for the specific cooking mode. Some modes
will take longer than others (i.e. convection bake).
