Oven door will not close fully or sits crooked, causing heat loss and poor cooking.

Safety first: Ensure the oven is cool before working on the door.

• Inspect hinges: Open the door and check both hinges for bending, cracks, or excessive play.
• Check hinge receivers: On built‑in ovens, the hinge arms slot into receivers in the oven frame. Inspect these for wear or damage.
• Door removal: Many Bauknecht doors can be removed by opening fully, flipping hinge locks, and lifting the door off. Follow the user manual procedure.
• Replace hinges: If hinges are worn or bent, replace them as a pair with the correct Bauknecht hinge set. Refit the door and check alignment.
