Fagor
Localized Overheating at Door Perimeter
Oven enamel discolors or turns brown near door seal area

Possible Causes
Flattened door gasket, Door not closing tightly, Misaligned hinges, Excessive grill use with door closed (on models not designed for it)
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Allow the oven to cool before inspecting the seal and hinges.
- Inspect gasket compression: Close the door on a strip of paper at various points. If the paper pulls out easily, the seal is not tight. Replace the gasket.
- Check hinges: Replace worn hinges that allow the door to drop or not close fully.
- Usage check: Follow the Fagor manual regarding grill use (door open or closed as specified). Avoid prolonged high-heat operation if the door is not sealing correctly.
