K. Frequently Asked Questions

ISSUES	SOLUTIONS
Odor from appliance	When ﬁrst operated, this appliance may release an odor for the ﬁrst 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.
