Maintenance

OVEN DOORS

Do not place excessive weight on or
stand on an open oven door. This could
END CAPS
cause the range to tip over, break the
door, or injure the user.
Do not attempt to open or close door or
operate oven until door is properly re-
placed.
Never place fingers between hinge and
front oven frame. Hinge arms are spring
mounted. If accidentally hit, the hinge
will slam shut against oven frame and
could injure your fingers.
Both the upper and lower oven doors are
removable.
TO REMOVE:
1. When cool, open the oven door to the broil
stop position (opened about four inches).
2. Grasp door at each side. Do not use the
door handle to lift door.
3. Lift up evenly until door clears hinge arms.
TO REPLACE:
1. Grasp door at each side.
2. Align slots in the door with the hinge arms
on the range.
3. Slide the door down onto the hinge arms
until the door is completely seated on the
hinges. Push down on the top corners of
the door to completely seat door on hinges.
Door should not appear crooked.
NOTE: The oven door on a new range may
feel "spongy" when it is closed. This is normal
and will decrease with use.
CAUTION
OVEN WINDOWS
TO PROTECT THE OVEN DOOR WIN-
DOW:
1. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents
such as steel wool scouring pads or
powdered cleaners as they may scratch
the glass.
2. Do not hit the glass with pots, pans,
furniture, toys, or other objects.
3. Do not close the oven door until the oven
racks are in place.
Scratching, hitting, jarring or stressing the
glass may weaken its structure causing an
increased risk of breakage at a later date.
