Identifying the Normal Sounds of a Range or Wall Oven When In Use

• It is normal to hear the temperature control click on and off during the baking, broiling, convection cooking, and self-cleaning cycles.
• When using the top burners, it is normal to hear a clicking sound as the burners cycle on and off.
• The sound of a fan running during and after the oven is on, including during and after the self-clean cycle. The fan keeps the electronics cool.  For additional information related to the fan, please see the following:
