Lift the door straight up and off 
the hinges.

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.

Lift-Off Oven Door 

(on some models)

The oven door is removable for easier

access to the lightbulb. 

Do not lift the door by the handle. 

To remove the door,

open it to the broil

stop position. Grasp firmly on each side

and lift the door straight up and off 

the hinges.

Do not place hands between the hinge and the
oven door frame.

To replace the door,

make sure the hinges

are in the broil stop position. Position the

slots in the bottom of the door squarely

over the hinges and slowly lower it over

both hinges.

To clean the inside of the door: 

■ 

Because the area inside the gasket is

cleaned during the self-clean cycle, you

do not need to clean this by hand.

■ 

The area outside the gasket and 

the door liner can be cleaned with a

soap-filled steel wool or plastic pad, hot

water and detergent. Rinse well with a

vinegar and water solution.

To clean the outside of the door:

■ 

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. Do not let

water drip into the vent openings.

■ 

If any stain on the door vent trim is

persistent, use a soft abrasive cleaner

and a sponge-scrubber for best results. 

■ 

Spillage of marinades, fruit juices,

tomato sauces and basting materials

containing acids may cause

discoloration and should be wiped up

immediately. When surface is cool,

clean and rinse.

■ 

Do not use oven cleaners, cleaning

powders or harsh abrasives on the 

outside of the door.

The oven door is removable for easier

access to the lightbulb. 

Do not lift the door by the handle. 

To remove the door:

Fully open the door.
Pull the hinge locks down toward 

the door frame, to the unlocked

position. This may require a tool.
Firmly grasp both sides of the door

at the top.
Close door to the door removal

position, which is halfway between

the broil stop position and fully

closed.
Lift door up and out until the hinge

arm is clear of the slot.

To replace the door:

Firmly grasp both sides of the door

at the top.

With the door

at the same

angle as the

removal

position, seat the

indentation of the

hinge arm into the

bottom edge of the

hinge slot. The notch in the hinge

arm must be fully seated into the

bottom of the slot.
Fully open the door.

Push the hinge locks up against the

front frame of the oven cavity, to the

locked position.

Close the oven door.
