Etna Door Hinge or Gasket Failure

Etna oven door does not close properly; heat escapes and front panel gets very hot.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Worn or bent door hinges, Damaged or compressed door gasket, Loose door latch, Misaligned oven cavity or door

Safety: Allow the oven to cool before adjusting the door.

Inspect gasket: Check the entire perimeter of the door seal for tears, gaps, or hardened sections. Replace if damaged.
Check hinges: Open the door halfway and lift gently. Excessive play indicates worn hinges.
Hinge replacement: Remove the door according to the manual and replace both hinges as a pair if they are bent or weak.
Adjust latch: If fitted, adjust the door latch striker so the door pulls tightly against the seal.
