36 Care and Cleaning
Removing and Replacing the Oven Door
To prevent possible burns, do not attempt to
remove the oven door until the oven has completely cooled.
The oven door is heavy. Be careful when
removing and lifting the door. Do not lift the oven door by the
handle.
To remove the oven door:
1. Open oven door completely (Figure 39).
2. Pull the hinge locks on both left and right hinges down from
the oven frame completely towards the oven door
(Figure 41). A tool such as a small flat-blade screwdriver
may be required.
3. Firmly grasp both sides of oven door along the door sides
(Do not use the oven door handle).(Figure 42)
4. Before completing this step, be prepared to hold the whole
weight of the door while grasping the sides of the oven door
with both hands. Hold midway down the oven door sides.
Close the oven door to about 4 inches from the door frame.
The oven door should release from the frame on its own.
(Figure 42).
5. With the oven door in this position, lift and carefully pull the
oven door away from the oven frame. To avoid finish
damage, be careful not to allow the oven door hinges to
contact the front of the oven frame. After door has been
removed, be sure to lay the door flat with the inside of the
door downward (never rest the oven door with any weight
on the door handle).
To replace oven door:
1. Firmly grasp both sides of oven door along the door sides.
(Do not use the oven door handle).
2. Position the angle of the door to the door removal angle
and carefully insert the door hinge arms fully and evenly
into the door hinge slots. Carefully let the weight of the door
transfer from your hands so that the oven now supports the
oven door. (Figure 42).
3. Open the oven door down to the fully open position.
(Figure 39).
4. Push both the door hinge locks up towards and into the
oven frame to the locked position (Figure 40).
5. Close the oven door.
Special door care instructions - Most oven doors contain
glass that can break.
Read the following recommendations:
• 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.
