Care and Cleaning
Removing and Replacing the Oven Door
The door is heavy. For safe, temporary storage,
lay the door flat with the inside of the door facing down.
To remove the oven door:
1. Open oven door completely, horizontal with floor (See
Figure 7).
2. Pull the door hinge locks on both left and right door hinges
down from the oven frame completely toward the oven
door (See Figure 8). A tool such as a small flat-blade screw-
driver may be required.
3. Firmly grasp both sides of oven door along the door sides.
Do not use the oven door handle (See Figure 9).
4. Close the door to approximately 10 degrees from the oven
door frame.
5. Lift the oven door hinge arms over the roller pins located on
each side of the oven frame (See Figure 9).
To Replace Oven Door:
1. Firmly grasp both sides of oven door along the door sides.
Do not use the oven door handle (See Figure 9).
2. Holding the oven door at the same angle as the removal
position (See Figure 9), seat the hook of the hinge arm over
the roller pins located on each side of the oven door frame
(See Figure 10). The hook of the hinge arms must be fully
seated onto the roller pins.
3. Fully open the oven door, horizontal with floor (See
Figure 7).
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 8).
5. Close the oven door.
Important:
Special Door Care Instructions - Most oven doors contain glass
that can break. 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.
