Care and Cleaning
Removing and replacing the
oven door
To prevent possible burns, do not attempt to remove the
oven door until the oven has completely cooled.
To Remove Oven Door:
1. Open oven door completely (horizontal with floor- Fig. 1).
2. Pull the door hinge locks on both left and right door hinges
down from the oven frame completely towards the oven door
(Fig. 2). A tool such as a small flat-blade screwdriver may be
required.
3. Firmly grasp both sides of oven door along the door sides
(Do not use the oven door handle).
4. Close the door to about a 10 degrees. The oven door will stop
into this position just before fully closing.
5. With the oven door in this position (Fig. 3), lift and carefully
pull the oven door away from the oven frame. To avoid finish
damage, be careful not to allow the oven door hinges to
contact the oven front frame.
To Replace Oven Door:
1. Firmly grasp both sides of oven door along the door sides
(Do not use the oven door handle).
2. Holding the oven door at the same angle as the removal
position, carefully line up and insert both door hinge arms
between the pins located on each side of the oven door
frame (Fig. 4)
3. With both door hinge arms in place, open the oven door
(horizontal with floor- Fig. 1).
4. Push the door hinge locks up towards and into the oven
frame for both left and right oven door hinges (Fig. 2) to the
locked position.
5. Close the oven door.
Special Door Care Instructions
CAUTION - Most oven doors contain glass that can break.
Read the following recommendations:
•
Do not close the oven door until all the oven racks are fully in
place.
• Do not hit the glass with pots, pans, or any other object.
•
Scratching, hitting, jarring or stressing the glass may weaken
its structure causing an increased risk of breakage at a later
time.
