smoking oven?

Metal ovens & metal elements. These cannot cause smoke on their own. There must be grease or dirt in there some where. Turn on oven & watch through open door for first sign of any smoke. This will tell you which area to check & clean.

I'm guessing here - but I wonder if some oil, grease, fat etc has dripped down onto the heating element so when you turn it on it burns and smokes. If you can access the element you should be able to see if that is the case. Don't operate the element without the cover back in place as the fan won't be able to cool the element and it may overheat. Good luck
