Removed the back and found burning paper and cardboard behind controls. I removed burning paper and placed into water. Appears to have been wiring diagrams and repair procedures. There is a burnt component on the operational panel which most likely started the paper to burn. Some wires burnt also. I have photographs of the paper and burnt components.
