Smeg / Electric oven / BR6
The protective device trips during heating
Stop using the oven when a protective device operates. Tell us the function selected and whether it happened immediately or after warming. Do not recreate the event through repeated resets, and never bypass protection. The timing and complete model help prepare the enquiry without identifying the faulty component in advance.
Compare this observation: the door will not close properly
Stop using the oven if a damaged door, loose glass or hinge makes closing unsafe. Describe a visible gap, sagging position or handle problem separately. Do not remove a heavy door or release spring-loaded fittings. Provide the model and an external photograph so the correct door arrangement can be considered.
The symptom followed other work.
State what changed and when the problem began, without assigning a cause from timing alone. Include any moved cabinet, connection or supply arrangement.

A useful question for the enquiry
Does “the protective device trips during heating” establish the failed part?
No. Describe that observation separately from “the door will not close properly”. Explain whether they began together or at different times, and include the fitting detail: the symptom followed other work. The inspection can then consider the symptoms and safe access together.
