When first using the cooker ensure that the room is well ventilated
(e.g. open a window or use an extractor fan) and that persons who
may be sensitive to the odour avoid any fumes. It is suggested that
any pets be removed from the room until the smell has ceased. This
odour is due to temporary finish on oven liners and elements and
also any moisture absorbed by the insulation.
