Oven door does not close fully or sits unevenly; heat escapes around the edges.

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

• Check hinges: Open the door and lift gently to feel for excessive play. Inspect hinge arms and mounting points for wear or bending.
• Tighten screws: Tighten hinge mounting screws on both the door and oven frame.
• Replace hinges: If the door still drops or does not seal, replace both hinges as a pair using Candy-specific hinge parts.
• Check door frame: Inspect for distortion; minor bends can sometimes be corrected carefully, but severe damage may require door replacement.
