THERE MAY BE NOTHING WRONG.
Check
This is normal and should cease after a short period.

up to 10˚C to suit your taste.
Check that the temperature and shelf position are as
recommended in the temperature charts.
Check that the containers being used in the oven allow
sufficient air flow around them.
Check that the cooker is level.
Check that your pans conform to the recommendations
in these instructions.
Check that the grill pan has been correctly positioned.
Grill will not work unless the Grill door is in the grill position
(see Grilling section of this book).
Steam and/or condensation may appear from the vent at
the rear of the appliance when using an oven particularly
for foods with a high water content e.g. frozen chips, roast
chicken etc. This is normal and any excess should be wiped
off.
Steam is a by-product of cooking any food with a high
water content. To help minimise always:
a) Try to avoid leaving food in the oven to cool after being
cooked.
b) Use a covered container, wherever possible
Contacts (back cover).
