Preheat the oven to the set temperature before placing food in the oven. Try adjusting the recipe's recommended temperature or baking time. Flames inside oven or smoking from oven vent.

If flames or excessive smoke are present when using broil, see "Setting Broil" on page 26. Oven smokes excessively when broiling. Incorrect setting. Follow the "Setting Broil" instructions on page 26. Meat too close to the broil element or burner. Reposition the broil pan to provide proper clearance between the meat and broil element or burner.

Some models are equipped with fans that run during and after normal operation to cool and ventilate the appliance. On some models, the fan will begin to run as soon as a function is activated. It is normal for these fans to continue to run during any kind of operation. They may also run for an extended period of time, even when the oven is off. Loud noises from the fans are not normal and require service. Convection fan does not rotate. Oven door is open. The convection fan will turn off if the oven door is opened when convection is active.
