Lift-Off Oven Door
The oven door is removable,
but it is heavy. You may need
help removing and replacing the
door. Do not lift the door by the
handle. This can cause the glass
to break or can cause damage to
the door.
To remove the door, open it
few inches to the special stop
position that will hold the door
open. Grasp firmly on each side
and lift the door straight up and
off the hinges.
NOTE: Be careful not to place hands between the
hinge and the oven door frame as the hinge could
snap back and pinch fingers.
To replace the door, make sure the hinges are in the
special stop position. Position the slots in the bottom
of the door squarely over the hinges. Then lower the
door slowly and evenly over both hinges at the same
time. If hinges snap back against the oven frame, pul
them back out.
TO CLEAN THE DOOR:
Inside of the door:
●
Because the area inside the gasket is cleaned during
the self clean cycle, you do not need to clean this by
hand. Any soap left on the liner causes additional
stains when the oven is heated.
●
The area outside the gasket can be cleaned with a
scouring pad.
●
Do not rub or clean the door gasket—the fiberglass
material of the gasket has an extremely low
resistance to abrasion. An intact and well-fitting
oven door gasket is essential for energy-efficient
oven operation and good baking results. If you
notice the gasket becoming worn, frayed or damaged
in any way or if it has become displaced on the door,
you should have it replaced.

Gasket
Outside Gasket
NOTE: The gasket is designed with a gap at the
bottom to allow for proper air circulation.
Outside of the door:
Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the top,
sides and front of the oven door. Rinse well. You
may also use a glass cleaner to clean the glass on
the outside of the door.
. Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces
and basting materials containing acids may cause
discoloration and should be wiped up immediately.
When surface is cool, clean and rinse.
. Do not use oven cleaners, cleansing powders or
harsh abrasives on the outside of the door.
“Sure Grip” Handle
The soft door handle is easy to keep clean. Soil will easily wash off with
soap and water or a non-abrasive all-purpose cleaner. Avoid using
duty all-purpose cleaners and detergents as they may contain chemicals
which might harm the sure grip handle.
Oven Heating Elements
Do not clean the bake element or the broil element.
Any soil will burn off when the elements are heated.
The bake element can be lifted gently to clean the
oven floor. If
residue or ash accumulate
around the bake element gently wipe around the
element with warm water.
