How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Beware of hot steam when opening the door.

  • Check vent: Locate the oven steam vent (often near the control panel or back edge). Ensure it is not blocked by foil, trays, or debris.
  • Door seal: Inspect and replace the door gasket if it is not sealing properly.
  • Cooking practices: Avoid overfilling dishes with liquid and always leave some headspace. Use lids where appropriate.
  • Panel inspection: If steam has entered the control panel, disconnect power and allow it to dry completely before reuse.
