User Suggested Solutions

Inspect the door seal for any visible damage or wear. If damaged, replace the door seal by removing the old seal and installing a new one, ensuring it fits snugly in the groove.
Check the alignment of the oven door by opening and closing it. If it is misaligned, adjust the door hinges by loosening the screws, repositioning the door, and tightening the screws back.
Clean the door and the seal area with warm, soapy water to remove any debris or buildup that might be preventing a proper seal. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
