Special Caution for Aluminum Use on the Ceramic
Cooktop
• Aluminum foil-Use of aluminum foil on a hot cooktop
will damage the ceramic cooktop. Do not use thin
aluminum cooking utensils or allow aluminum foil to
touch the ceramic cooktop under ANY circumstances.
• Aluminum utensils- The melting point of aluminum is
much lower than that of other metals. Care must be taken
when aluminum pots or pans are used on the cooktop. If
allowed to boil dry, not only will be utensil be destroyed,
but it may fuse to, break or mark the ceramic glass
surface, permanently damaging the cooktop surface.
Removing and Replacing the Oven Door
• Do not close the oven door until all the interior oven racks
are fully inserted and retracted to the back of the oven.
• Do not hit the glass with pots, pans, or any other object.
The oven door glass may break or even break at a later
time unexpectedly.
• Scratching, hitting, jarring or stressing the oven door glass
may weaken its structure causing an increased risk of
breakage at a later time.
• You may use a glass cleaner on the outside of the oven
door glass. Do not spray or allow water or the cleaner to
enter or drip down into the oven door vents. Spray cleaner
on cloth rst and then wipe the oven door clean.
• Do not use strong oven cleaners, powders or any harsh
abrasive cleaning materials on the outside of the oven
door or glass.
• Never clean the oven door gasket. The oven door gasket
should always clean during the Self-clean cycle.
The oven door is heavy. Be careful when
removing and lifting the door. Do not lift the oven door by
the handle.
IMPORTANT
Most oven doors contain glass that can
break. Read the following recommendations:
To Remove Oven Door:
1. Open oven door completely (horizontal with oor - See
Figure 1).
2. Pull the door hinge locks on both left and right door
hinges down from the oven frame completely towards
the oven door (See Figure 2). A tool such as a small at-
blade screwdriver may be required.
3. Firmly grasp both sides of oven door along the door sides
(Do not use the oven door handle - See Figure 3).
4. Close the door to the broil stop position (the oven door
will stop into this position just before fully closing).
5. With the oven door in the broil stop position, lift the
oven door hinge arms over the roller pins located on
each side of the oven frame (See Figure 4).
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 3).
2. Holding the oven door at the same angle as the removal
position, seat the hook of the hinge arm onto the roller
pins located on each side of the oven door frame (See
Fig. 4). Also, seat the notch of the hinge arm onto the
bottom of the slot at the same time you seat the hook.
The hook and notch of the hinge arms must be fully
seated onto the roller pins and bottom of the slot.
3. Fully open the oven door (horizontal with oor - See
Figure 1).
4. Push the door hinge locks up towards and into the oven
frame on both left and right oven door hinges (See
Figure 2) to the locked position.
5. Close the oven door.
Do not use the following on the cooktop:
• Do not use abrasive cleaners and scouring pads, such
as metal and some nylon pads. They may scratch the
cooktop, making it more dicult to clean.
• Do not use harsh cleaners, such as chlorine bleach,
ammonia or oven cleaners, as they may etch or discolor the
cooktop.
• Do not use dirty sponges, cloths or paper towels, as they
can leave soil or lint on the cooktop which can burn and
cause discoloration.
