Important: When lit for the first time, the appliance will emit
a slight odour for a couple of hours. This is due to the curing
of paints, sealants and lubricants used in the manufacturing
process. This condition is temporary. Open doors and
windows to ventilate area. If optional fan kit has been
installed, place fan in the "OFF" position. Smoke and fumes
caused by the curing process may cause discomfort to some
individuals.

expansion and/or contraction noises during the start up or cool
