Possible Causes

Worn or bent door hinges, deformed door seal, loose hinge mounting screws, warped door frame from heat

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

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

Steps:

  • Inspect the door gasket for tears, flattening, or missing sections. Replace if it does not provide a uniform seal.
  • Open the door fully and check the hinges for play or visible bending. Tighten hinge mounting screws on the oven frame.
  • If the door sags or does not align with the cabinet, replace the hinge pair with Teka-compatible hinges.
  • After hinge replacement, check door alignment and adjust if the model allows hinge position adjustment.
