IMPORTANT
Special door care instructions - For safe,
temporary storage, lay the door fl at with the
inside of the door facing down.
Most oven doors contain glass that can break.
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. Do not
close the oven door until all of the oven racks are
fully in place.
To remove the oven door:
1.
Open oven door completely, horizontal with
fl oor (Figure 9).
2. Pull up the lock located on each hinge support
toward front of the oven until the lock stops.
You may have to apply a little upward pressure
on the lock to pull it up (Figure 10).
3. Grasp the door by the sides, and close the door
until the door frame makes contact with the
unlocked hinges (Figure 11).
4. Pull the bottom of the door toward you while
rotating the top of the door toward the appli-
ance to completely disengage the hinge levers
(Figure 12).
To replace the oven door:
1.
Firmly grasp both sides of oven door along the
door sides. Do not use the oven door handle
(Figure 12).
2. Hold the oven door at the same angle as the
removal position (Figure 11) Carefully insert
the hinge levers into the oven frame until you
feel the hinge levers are seated into the hinge
notches. The hinge arms must be fully seated
into the hinge notches before the oven door
can be fully opened.

(Figure 9).
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 10).
