OVEN DOOR
The oven door is removable, but it is heavy. You
may need help removing and replacing the door.
To remove the door,
open it a few inches
to the special stop
position that will hold
the door open. Grasp
firmly on each side
and lift the door
straight up and off the
hinges.
NOTE: Be careful not
to place hands
between the hinge
and the oven door frame as the hinge could
snap back and pinch fingers.
To replace the door, make sure the hinges are
in the special stop position. Position the slots in
the bottom of the door squarely over the hinges.
Then lower the door slowly and evenly over both
hinges at the same time. If the hinges snap back
against the oven frame, pull them back out.
• Do not allow excess
water to run into
any holes or slots
in the door.
• Because the area
inside the gasket is
cleaned during the
self clean cycle, you
do not need to clean
this by hand. Any
soap left on the liner
causes additional
stains when the oven
is heated.
• The area outside
the gasket can be
cleaned with a
soap-filled plastic
scouring pad.
• Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the
top, sides and front of the oven door. Rinse
well. You may also use a glass cleaner to
clean the glass on the outside of the door.
• Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato
sauces and basting materials containing acids
may cause discoloration and should be wiped
up immediately. When the surface is cool,
clean and rinse.
• Do not use oven cleaners, cleansing powders
or harsh abrasives on the outside of the door.
The gasket is designed with a
gap at the bottom to allow for
proper air circulation.
Do not rub or clean the door
gasket—it has an extremely
low resistance to abrasion.
If you notice the gasket
becoming worn, frayed or
damaged in any way or if it
has become displaced on the
door, you should have it
replaced.

OVEN BOTTOM
The oven bottom has a porcelain enamel finish.
T
o make cleaning easier
, protect the oven
bottom fr
om excessive spillovers by placing a
cookie sheet on the shelf below the shelf you
ar
e cooking on. This is particularly important
when baking a fruit pie or other foods with a
high acid content. Hot fruit fillings or other foods
that are highly acidic (such as tomatoes,
sauerkraut and sauces with vinegar or lemon
juice) may cause pitting and damage to the
porcelain enamel surface and should be wiped
up immediately
.
We don’t recommend using aluminum foil on the
oven bottom. It can af
fect air flow if the holes ar
e
blocked and it can concentrate heat at the bottom
of the oven, r
esulting in poor baking performance.
T
o clean up spillovers, use soap and water,
an abrasive cleaner or soap-filled scouring
pad. Rinse well to remove any soap before
self-cleaning.
Always make sur
e that the oven bottom is
pr
operly in place after cleaning.
