Removing and Replacing the Oven Door
The door is heavy. For safe, temporary storage,
lay the door flat with the inside of the door facing down.
To remove the oven door:
1.
Open oven door completely, horizontal with floor (See
Figure 41
).
2. Pull the door hinge locks on both left and right door hinges
down from the oven frame completely toward the oven
door (See
Figure 42
). 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 (See
Figure 43
).
4. Close the door to approximately 10 degrees from the oven
door frame.
5. Lift the oven door hinge arms over the roller pins located on
each side of the oven frame (See
Figure 43
).
To replace oven door:
1.
Firmly grasp both sides of oven door along the door sides.
Do not use the oven door handle (See
Figure 43
).
2. Holding the oven door at the same angle as the removal
position (See
Figure 43
), seat the hook of the hinge arm
over the roller pins located on each side of the oven door
frame (See
Figure 44
). The hook of the hinge arms must be
fully seated onto the roller pins.
3. Fully open the oven door, horizontal with floor (See
Figure 41
).
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 42
).
5. Close the oven door.
Special Door Care Instructions:
•
Most oven doors contain glass that can break.
•
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.
