Oven Door
IMPORTANT:
To avoid oven door glass breakage:
■
Do not close the oven door if the racks are not fully inserted
into the oven cavity or when bakeware extends past the front
edge of an oven rack.
■
Do not set objects on the glass surface of the oven door.
■
Do not hit glass surfaces with bakeware or other objects.
■
Do not wipe down glass surfaces until the oven has
completely cooled.
For normal oven use, it is not suggested to remove the oven door.
However, if removal is necessary, make sure the oven is off and
cool. Then, follow these instructions. The oven door is heavy.
To Remove:
IMPORTANT:
Use 2 hands to remove oven door. For double
ovens, repeat the process for each door.
1.
Prior to removing the oven door, prepare a surface where
you will place it. This surface should be flat and covered with a
soft blanket, or use the corner posts from your packaging
material.
2.
Fully open the oven door.
3.
Locate the oven door hinge locks in both corners of the
oven door, and rotate the hinge locks toward the oven door to
the unlocked position. If the door hinge lock is not rotated fully
(see illustration B), the door will not remove properly.

5.
Using 2 hands, grasp the edges of the oven door. Close the
oven door slightly past the stop position to take the weight off
of the door hinges, and then pull the oven door up.
6.
Pull the oven door toward you, and then remove. You may
need to gently shift door from side to side as you pull.

Set the oven door aside on the prepared covered work surface
with the oven door resting on its handle.
