How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power and do not use the oven with broken glass. Wear gloves and eye protection when handling glass fragments.

  • 1. Secure area: Carefully tape over cracked glass with strong tape to prevent pieces falling out until replacement.
  • 2. Identify panel: Determine whether the inner, middle, or outer glass is damaged. This affects which replacement part is needed.
  • 3. Door removal: Remove the door from the oven and place it on a padded surface. Disassemble according to the service or user manual to access the glass panels.
  • 4. Replace glass: Install the correct Fisher & Paykel replacement glass panel and reassemble the door, ensuring all screws are tightened evenly.

Do not operate the oven until the door glass is replaced, as heat loss and injury risk are significant.
