Unpleasant odor is coming from the range

New ovens can give off an unpleasant odor on the first use, this is normal.

Heat up the oven for at least 1 hour with nothing inside.

Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated while the appliance is being heated up for the first time.

Close doors to other rooms to prevent the smell spreading throughout the house.

Remove any protective wrapping and sticky labels from the oven.

Before heating the oven up, wipe the interior with a damp cloth to remove any dust or bits of packaging that may have accumulated in the oven cavity during storage and unpacking.

Insert the FlexiClips with wire rack (available to order) to the shelf runners and insert all trays and the rack.

Turn on the oven.

Proceed as described in remedy 2.
