Possible Causes
Damaged or shrunken door seal, blocked oven vent, misaligned door, high-moisture cooking without ventilation
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Beware of hot steam when opening the door.
Steps to check:
- Inspect seal: Check the entire perimeter of the door seal for gaps, splits, or hardened sections. Replace if necessary.
- Check vent: Locate the oven vent (often at the rear or near the hob area). Ensure it is not blocked by foil, trays, or debris.
- Door alignment: Verify that the door closes evenly. Adjust hinges or replace hinge receivers if needed.
- Use extractor: When cooking high-moisture foods, use an extractor hood or open a window to reduce condensation.
