en-us Cleaning and maintenance
Open the oven door to its fully open position.
1.
Lock the two hinges on the left and right using the lock-
2.
ing pin. The locking pins must be fully inserted into the
holes in the hinges.
3.
CAUTION Closing the door by 8" (203 mm) takes
the pressure off the spring. If this is not done, the door
can still be removed but the latch will now slam shut
and may pinch or cut your hand.
Close the oven door until it catches on the hinge stop
levers, locking the hinges at the correct angle for door
removal. The door can be removed when it is pulled up
from the open position by about 8 inches (203 mm).
This takes the tension off the spring-loaded hinges so
that the door can be easily lifted out.
The door is heavy. Use both hands to firmly grip it by
4.
the sides. Do not grip the door by the handle. Keeping
the angle of the door the same, lift the door straight up
approximately 3/4" (19 mm) to unhook the hinges from
the slots. Pull the door out towards you until the hinges
are clear of the oven housing.
Place the door in a convenient and stable location for
5.
cleaning.
Refit the door in the reverse order in which it was re-
6.
moved.
Note: Do not throw away the locking pins. Keep them in a
safe place. They will be needed anytime the door is re-
moved from the appliance.
