CARE AND CLEANING
Removing and Replacing the Oven Door
The oven door has three glass panels. You can remove the
oven door to clean it.
To remove the oven door:
1.
Open the door fully, horizontal with the floor, and hold
the two door hinges (
Figure 32
).
2.
Lift and turn/pull the levers on both of the door hinge
locks down from the oven frame completely towards the
oven door (
Figure 33
). 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. Close the oven
door halfway to the first opening position. Then, pull
forward and remove the door from its seat (
Figure 34
).
4.
Put the door on a soft cloth on a stable surface
(
Figure 35
).
5.
Clean the glass panel with water and soap. Dry the
glass panel carefully.
The door is heavy. For safe, temporary storage, lay the
door flat with the inside of the door facing down. Do not
use the appliance without the internal glass panel.
Clean the oven door with a wet sponge only. Dry it with a
soft cloth. Do not use steel wool, acids or abrasive
materials as they can damage the oven surface. Clean
the oven control panel with the same precautions.
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.
