CARE AND CLEANING
Removing and Replacing the Oven Door
CAUTION
The door is heavy. For safe, temporary storage, lay
the door flat with the inside of the door facing down.
WARNING
Make sure the appliance is turned off before you
remove or replace parts, to avoid the possibility of
electric shock.
IMPORTANT
Most oven doors contain glass that can break. 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. Do not close the oven door
until all of the oven racks are fully in place.
To remove the oven door:
1. Open oven door completely, horizontal with floor
(Figure 26).
2. Pull up the lock located on each hinge support to-
ward front of the oven until the lock stops. You may
have to apply a little upward pressure on the lock
to pull it up (Figure 27).
3. Grasp the door by the sides, and close the door
until the door frame makes contact with the un-
locked hinges (Figure 28)
4. Pull the bottom of the door toward you while ro-
tating the top of the door toward the appliance to
completely disengage the hinge levers (Figure 29).
To replace the oven door:
1. Firmly grasp both sides of oven door along the
door sides. Do not use the oven door handle (Fig-
ure 29).
2. Hold the oven door at the same angle as the re-
moval position(Figure 28). Carefully insert the hinge
levers into the oven frame until you feel the hinge
levers are seated into the hinge notches. The hinge
arms must be fully seated into the hinge notches
before the oven door can be fully opened. (Figure
28).
3. Fully open the oven door, horizontal with floor
(Figure 26).
4. Push the door hinge locks up toward and into the
oven frame on both left and right oven door hinges
to the locked position (Figure 27).
5. Close the oven door.
