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:

2. Open the oven door.
You should hear a “click” as the door is set into place.

that the door is free to open and close. If it is not, repeat the
removal and installation procedures.
