Possible Causes

Worn or torn door gasket, Missing gasket hooks or clips, Deformed door frame, Incorrectly fitted replacement seal

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Allow the oven to cool before touching the door seal.

Step-by-step checks:

  • 1. Inspect gasket: Look for splits, hardened sections, or missing corners on the Zanussi door seal.
  • 2. Check hooks/clips: Ensure the seal is properly hooked into all retaining holes around the cavity.
  • 3. Replace seal: Remove the old gasket by pulling out the hooks. Fit a new genuine Zanussi seal, starting at the corners and ensuring even tension.
  • 4. Check door alignment: If gaps remain, adjust or replace hinges to improve alignment.

Warning: Do not use adhesive or generic seals that are not rated for oven temperatures.
