Possible Causes

Torn or compressed door gasket, missing gasket clips or hooks, warped door or front frame

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Allow the oven to cool before touching the gasket.

Seal replacement:

  • Inspect the entire perimeter of the gasket for tears, gaps, or hardened sections.
  • On clip-in gaskets, pull out the old gasket and note the position of the corner clips.
  • Fit the new Ilve gasket, ensuring all clips are fully seated and the gasket is not twisted.
  • Close the door and check for even contact all around; adjust hinges if necessary.
