J. 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

The blower produces a whirring sound which increases in volume as the speed

is increased.
