Microwave leaks steam or moisture around the door or control panel during cooking.

Note: Some condensation is normal, but excessive moisture around the door or panel can indicate a sealing or ventilation issue.

• Step 1 – Inspect door seal: Check the rubber or plastic gasket around the door for cracks, gaps, or deformation. Replace if damaged.
• Step 2 – Clean sealing surfaces: Wipe the door frame and gasket with a damp cloth to remove grease and debris that can prevent a tight seal.
• Step 3 – Check vents: Ensure the internal and external vents are not blocked. Clean any dust or grease buildup.
• Step 4 – Use proper ventilation: When cooking high-moisture foods, open a window or use a hood fan to reduce condensation.
