The door is heavy. For safe, temporary storage, lay the door flat
with the inside of the door facing down.
Most oven doors contain glass that can break. Do not
close the oven door until all the oven racks are positioned
correctly in the cavity. Do not hit the glass with bakeware
or any other objects. Scratching, hitting, jarring, or
stressing the glass may weaken its structure, causing an
increased risk of breakage at a later time.
