30 Care and Cleaning
Removing and Replacing the Oven Door
The door is very heavy. For safe, temporary storage, lay the door
flat with the inside of the door facing down.
To prevent possible burns, do not attempt to remove the oven
door until the oven has completely cooled.
To remove the oven door:
1. Open oven door completely, horizontal with floor
(
Figure 33 ).
2. Pull up the lock located on each hinge support toward front
of the oven. You may have to apply a little upward pressure
on the lock to pull it up (
Figure 34 and Figure 35 ).
3. Grasp the door by the sides, pull the bottom of the door up
and toward you to disengage the hinge supports.
The door is very heavy. Use caution when lifting the door.
Improper lifting can cause injury.
4. Keep pulling the bottom of the door toward you while
rotating the top of the door toward the appliance to
completely disengage the hinge levers (
Figure 36 ).
To Replace Oven Door:
1. Firmly grasp both sides of oven door along the door sides.
Do not use the oven door handle (
Figure 36 ).
2. Holding the oven door at the same angle as the removal
position, seat the hook of the hinge arm over the roller pins
located on each side of the oven door frame (
Figure 34 and
Figure 35 ). The hook of the hinge arms must be fully seated
onto the roller pins.
3. Fully open the oven door, horizontal with floor ( Figure 33 ).
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 34 ).
5. Close the oven door.
IMPORTANT!
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.
