Switch it off, check the connections are done properly. If they are then you should get t replaced under warranty.
Dont use it.
If its smoking then you could get a fire to deal with.

I had a call to a customer who thought he was getting a 'tingle' of some metal hall light switches "because they were new." Actually, it was because the earth ('cpc') wasn't connected and the live (phase) was touching the plate. I fixed it on the spot and told him he was lucky he or his kids hadn't been killed switching on the light when they walked in from the rain.
