So I made a quiche yesterday (my first one) and I think I filled it a little too full because I had quite a bit of an overflow when it was baking. The quiche was delicious but my oven was a mess. I cleaned a bit of it last night and today I decided to a full cleaning - it's one of those automatic things where you lock the door and press clean and I set it for 3 hours. Never had a problem before...
About 10 minutes into it, I hear a funny noise and I look to see a fairly big fire inside the oven. :-0 So I quickly abort the cleaning process. The fire went out quickly but there's quite a bit of smoke in the house and a funny smell (although there's usually an odd smell during the process anyway). All the doors and windows were already open before I sstarted. The oven door is still on auto lock and won't unlock until it's ready. When I go near the kitchen, I start coughing.
What should I do? Call the company? The fire department? Or is everything probably fine and I can continue cleaning it later? (I'm scared to now). Stupid questions I know but this has never happened before. :-(

(because nobody is perfect) and you will spend the rest of your life fixing stuff.
