Range or Wall Oven - Normal Gap Across Oven Door Top

When looking at the top of the closed oven door, there is a gap between the door and the oven.

 

• This is normal and should be even across the top.
• The door gasket seals the opening to the oven.
• This gap is not a reflection on how well the oven is sealing.
• A wider gap at top versus bottom near the hinges is normal.  This gap will equalize as the oven gasket takes a set after a few weeks of use.  A self-clean cycle will accelerate the set. 
• If there is a difference in this door gap when comparing one side of the door to the other after a few weeks of use, service should be scheduled.
  • For service, please schedule an appointment with Bodewell.

 

 

 

If the gap is not even try removing the door and reinstalling it. Instructions are located in the owner's manual.
