Oven leaks heat and steam around the door, causing condensation on nearby cabinets.

Safety first: Allow the oven to cool before inspection.

• Inspect gasket: Check the oven door gasket for tears, gaps, or hardened sections. Replace if any damage is found.
• Door alignment: Check that the door closes evenly on all sides. If not, inspect and replace door hinges as needed.
• Vent channels: Ensure that steam vents are not blocked; do not cover them with foil or accessories.
• Paper test: Close the door on a strip of paper at various points. If the paper pulls out easily, the seal is weak in that area and gasket or hinge replacement is required.
