Instructions for the user

7.4Removing the door

7.4.1 With type 1 mobile levers

With the door completely open, lift the levers A of the two hinges until they touch the hinges B and take hold of the two sides of the door with both hands close to the hinges themselves. Raise the door to an angle of about 45° and remove it. If the hinges have not locked, repeat the operation, raising the levers and keeping the door slightly raised. To reassemble, fit the hinges B into their grooves, then lower the door into place, ensuring that it remains fitted into the grooves C, and lower the levers A.

7.4.2 Removing doors with pins

Open the door completely and insert the pins (supplied) into the holes from the inside. Close the door to an angle of about 45° and lift it off. To reassemble, fit the hinges into their grooves, then lower the door into place and extract the pins. If you should lose the pins, two screwdrivers can also be used.

7.5Removing the door glazing.

The glass in the door should always be kept thoroughly clean. For easier cleaning, the door glazing can be fully removed by proceeding as described below. After opening the door and locking it in place as described in point “7.4 Removing the door”, remove the internal glass panel levering it as illustrated in figure 1, and detach the 4 pins that fix the glass to the door. If your oven also has a middle glass panel (figure 2) this can be extracted simply by lifting it upwards. After having carried out the cleaning, first of all replace the middle glass panel (if your oven has one), and then position the internal glass hinging it, as shown in figure 3, on the grooves of the oven door (see part A in figure 3). When the glazing has been positioned on the door, exert a slight pressure on the four fixing pins. If the door should close during these operations, simply relock one of the hinges as described in point “7.4 Removing the door”. The glass panels can now be washed separately.
