Possible Causes

Failed or missing door insulation, damaged inner glass seal, non-functioning cooling fan, door not closing fully

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety note: Oven doors can get warm, but should not be dangerously hot. Keep children away until resolved.

Checks:

  • Verify that the cooling fan runs when the oven is on (you should hear airflow at the top/front). If not, see cooling fan fault guidance.
  • Check that the door closes fully and compresses the seal evenly; replace hinges or seal if needed.
  • Inspect the door glass assembly and inner seals for gaps or damage; replace the glass pack or seals if compromised.
  • On some models, additional insulation panels around the door may be present; ensure they are intact and correctly positioned.
