Hello Wally, there is a break in period in a new Range. The smoke is from the oils used in the manufacturing process. This will need to be baked off. Generally, we suggest you turn the appliance on the highest setting for about one hour. If you are able to, we do recommend to open or well ventilate the area. You will hear the walls of the oven expanding and contracting during this time. It will lessen as the oven "breaks in". We hope this helps.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
