The oven is leaking heat or steam around the door; surrounding cabinets feel unusually hot.

Safety First: Allow the oven to cool before touching the door or gasket.

• Inspect Gasket:
  • Check the entire perimeter of the Oven Door Gasket for tears, gaps, or hardened sections.
  • Replace gasket if any damage is found.
• Check Door Alignment:
  • Close the door and look for uneven gaps.
  • Adjust or replace Oven Door Hinges if the door is not square.
• Tighten Door Screws:
  • Remove the door and tighten any loose screws holding the inner and outer panels together.
