Lift-Off Oven Door

The oven door is removable,
but it is heavy. You may need
help removing and replacing the
door. Do 

 lift the door by the

handle. This 

 cause the glass

 break or 

 cause damage to

the door.

To remove the door,  open it a
few inches to the special stop
position that will hold the door
open. Grasp firmly on each side
and lift the door straight up and
off the hinges.

NOTE: Be careful not to place hands between the
hinge and the oven door frame as the hinge could

snap back and pinch fingers.

To replace the door,  make sure the hinges are in the
special stop position. Position the slots in the bottom
of the door squarely over the hinges. Then lower the
door slowly and evenly over both hinges at the same
time. If the hinges snap back against the oven frame,
pull them back out.

TO CLEAN THE DOOR:

Inside of the door:

● 

Because the area inside the gasket is cleaned during

the 

 clean cycle, you do not need to clean this

by hand. Any soap left on the liner causes additional
stains when the oven is heated.

 The area outside the gasket can be cleaned with

a scouring pad.

● 

Do not rub or clean the door 

the fiberglass material   the gasket has an
extremely low resistance to abrasion. An intact and
well-fitting oven door gasket is essential for 
efficient oven operation 

 good baking results.

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.

NOTE: The gasket is designed with a gap at the
bottom to 

 for proper air circulation.

Outside of the door:

● 

Use soap and water to thoroughly clean 

 top,

sides and front of the oven door. Rinse well. You
may also use a glass cleaner to clean the 

 

the outside of the door.

● 

Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces

and basting materials containing acids may cause
discoloration and should be wiped up immediately.
When the surface is cool, clean and rinse.

● 

Do 

not use oven cleaners, cleansing powders or

harsh abrasives on the outside of the door.

Oven Light Replacement

CAUTION:  Before replacing your oven light bulb,
disconnect the 

 power for your range at the

main fuse or circuit breaker panel or pull the plug.
Be sure to 

 the light cover and bulb cool completely

before removing or replacing them. When in use, light
bulbs can become warm enough to break   touched
with a moist cloth or towel. When cleaning, avoid
touching warm lights with cleaning cloths if the light
cover is removed.

The oven light (bulb) is
covered with a removable
glass cover  
which is held
in place with a wire. Remove
the oven door, if desired, to
reach the cover easily.

in place. When in place, the wire holds the cover
firmly. Be certain the wire is in the depression in the
center of the cover.
