Customer Questions and Answers for Oven Door Gasket by Whirlpool

This high-temperature gasket seals the oven door to the cabinet. Replacing a worn seal helps your oven preheat more efficiently, hold steady temperatures, and reduces heat and vapor escaping around the door edge.

• Maintains a tight seal between the door and oven cavity to retain heat
• Supports accurate, consistent baking and roasting temperatures
• Helps reduce longer preheat or cook times caused by heat loss
• Replaces seals that are torn, brittle, flattened, or frayed

• Disconnect power and allow the oven to cool completely before servicing
• Open the door and remove the old gasket, noting clip/screw locations and orientation
• Clean the mounting channel; press the new gasket in place without stretching it
• After installing, preheat and check for even contact all around the door
