Replace the oven housing and control panel and repack side as well as
back insulation, and replace the back panel.
DOOR AND GASKET REPAIRS:
DOOR GASKET REPLACEMENT: After pulling the old gasket from its groove,
remove all dirt and foreign matter from the groove and from the mating surface
on the oven.
NOTE
: DO NOT LET PETROLEUM, SILICONE OIL OR GREASE CONTACT THE GASKET
OR MOUNTING GROOVE.
•
Press the new gasket onto the mounting surface in the middle of the top
section. Press top corners into place, then the sides. Next, fit the bottom
corners, then the bottom section into place. Press and spread the gasket
to set it solidly in the door groove.
•
Close the door to help seat the gasket. Open the door and apply a high-
quality vacuum grease to the gasket. Evacuate the oven while pressing on
the door to seat the gasket firmly.
DOOR ALIGNMENT: Inspect the door-to-gasket seal to find where the door is
out of alignment. Note that there are 2 (inner and outer) sets of hinge bolts.
•
Adjust vertical door position by loosening inner hinge-to-oven bolts.
Tighten them securely when the door is straight.
•
Adjust gasket compression tolerance (in/out movement) by the outer
hinge-to-door bolts, then tighten them securely.
•
After adjustment is made, check it by opening and closing the door several
times. Re-grease the gasket and test the seal by evacuating the oven.
(Make further adjustments if necessary.)
