9. The appliance should preheat for a minimum of 3-7 minutes. During this time, you
may notice slight smoking or a slight odor; this is normal with most new appliances.
The smoking and odor is caused by the residues burning off the Cooking Surface and
the Heating Element. Allow the appliance to preheat until smoke and odor no longer
exists. The Green Ready Light will turn on when the appliance is ready to cook.
