Possible Causes

Blocked condensation channels, Damaged door gasket, Excessive steam from cooking, Poor door alignment

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the microwave before cleaning around electrical areas.

  • 1. Normal condensation: Some moisture on the door and cavity is normal when cooking high-moisture foods. Wipe dry after use.
  • 2. Check door seal: Inspect the rubber or foam gasket around the door for gaps, tears, or deformation.
  • 3. Clean drainage paths: Some OK models have small channels or holes to direct condensation. Clean these with a soft brush.
  • 4. Improve ventilation: Ensure the microwave has adequate airflow and is not enclosed too tightly in cabinetry.
  • 5. Replace damaged door seal or adjust door alignment if moisture is excessive or persistent.
