Microwave leaks water or condensation from the door area or underneath after cooking.

Safety first: Unplug the microwave before inspecting underneath or behind it.

• Step 1 – Identify source: Determine if the liquid is water/condensation or food/grease from spills.
• Step 2 – Clean thoroughly: Wipe the interior, door, and underside of the door with a cloth after cooking to remove moisture.
• Step 3 – Check door seal and frame: Inspect for gaps, tears, or deformation that could allow steam to escape and condense externally.
• Step 4 – Inspect condensation channels (advanced): Some models have channels or holes to direct condensation; ensure they are not blocked with grease or debris.
• Step 5 – Professional inspection: If you suspect a crack in the cavity or inner liner, stop using the microwave and have it inspected by a technician.

Note: Small amounts of water around the door after heavy steaming are common but should be wiped away to prevent damage.
