Oven Door

The oven door is removable but it is heavy. You may need help removing and replacing the door. Do not lift the door by the handle. This can cause the glass to break or damage to the door.

To remove the door, open it a few inches to the special stop position that

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 hinges snap back against the oven frame, pull them back out.

TO CLEAN THE DOOR:

(Do not immerse the door in water.) Inside of door:

●Allow to cool before cleaning. For light soil, wipe frequently with mild soap and water (especially after cooking meat). This will prolong the time between major cleaning.

Rinse thoroughly.

NOTE: Soa~ left on the oven door causes’additional s~ins when the oven is reheated.

●For heavy soil, choose m oven cleaner (for Continuous Cleaning oven, before applying commercial oven cleaner, remove the oven door) and follow label instructions. Rinse well.

Outside of door:

●Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the top, sides and front of the oven door. Rinse well. You may also use a glass cleaner to clean the glass on 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 surface is cool, clean and rinse.

●Do not use oven cleaners, cleansing powders or harsh abrasives on the outside of the door.

Porcelain Oven Interior (on all models except Continuous-Cleaning models)

With proper care, the porcelain enamel interior will retain its attractive finish for many years.

Soap and water will normally do the job. Heavy spattering or spillovers may require cleaning with a mild abrasive cleanser. Soapy, wet pads may also be used. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface. They may cause dull spots even after cleaning.

Household ammonia may make the cleaning job easier. Place 1/2 cup ammonia in a shallow glass pan and leave in a cold oven overnight. The ammonia fumes will help loosen the burned-on grease and food.

When necessary, you may use a commercial oven cleaner. Follow the package directions.

Cautions about using spray-on oven cleaners:

●Be careful where the oven cleaner is sprayed.

●Do not spray oven cleaner on the electrical controls and switches (on some models) because it could cause a short circuit and result in sparking or fire.

●Do not allow a film from the cleaner to remain on the temperature sensing bulb—it could cause the oven to heat improperly. (The bulb is located at the rear of the oven.) Carefully wipe the bulb clean after each oven cleaning, being careful not to move the bulb as a change in its position could affect how the oven bakes.

●Do not spray any oven cleaner on the outside oven door, handles or any exterior surface of the oven, wood or painted surfaces. The cleaner can damage these surfaces.

Oven Air Vents

Never block the vents (air openings) of the range.

They provide the air inlet and outlet that are necessary for the range to operate properly with correct combustion.

Air openings are located at the rear of the cooktop, at the top and bottom of the oven door, and at the bottom of the range, under the kick panel, storage drawer or broiler drawer (depending on the model).
