ISSUES SOLUTIONS
Odor from appliance When fi rst operated, this appliance may release an odor for the fi rst several hours. This is
caused by the curing of the paint and the burning off of any oils remaining from manufacturing.
Metallic noise Noise is caused by metal expanding and contracting as it heats up and cools down, similar to
the sound produced by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not affect the operation or
longevity of the appliance.
Whirring sound If the optional blower has been installed, the blower produces a whirring sound which
increases in volume as the speed is increased.
