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.
