Possible Causes
Blocked oven vent, Damaged door seal, Overfilled trays or dishes, Fan not circulating air properly
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Steam can cause burns. Open the door cautiously and stand back.
- Check vent outlets: Locate the oven vent (often at the rear or top front) and ensure it is not blocked by foil or pans.
- Inspect door seal: Replace the gasket if it is flattened or damaged, as this can allow steam to escape around the door.
- Avoid covering shelves: Do not line the entire oven base or shelves with foil, as this disrupts airflow.
- Check fan operation: In fan mode, ensure the fan is spinning strongly. A weak or noisy fan may need replacement.
