Removing and replacing the lift-off oven door

To avoid possible injury when removing or replacing the oven door, follow the instructions below carefully and always hold the oven door with both hands positioned away from the door hinge area.

The door is heavy. For safe, temporary storage, lay the door flat with the inside of the door facing down.

To remove oven door:

1.Open oven door completely (horizontal with floor - Fig.1).

2.Pull the door hinge locks on both left and right door hinges down from the oven frame completely towards the oven door (Fig. 2). A tool such as a small flat-blade screwdriver may be required.

3.Firmly grasp both sides of oven door along the door sides (Do not use the oven door handle - Fig. 3).

4.Close the door to the broil stop position (the oven door will stop into this position just before fully closing).

5.With the oven door in the broil stop position, lift the oven door hinge arms over the roller pins located on each side of the oven frame (Fig. 4).

To replace oven door:

1.Firmly grasp both sides of oven door along the door sides (Do not use the oven door handle - Fig. 3).

2.Holding the oven door at the same angle as the removal position, seat the hook of the hinge arm over the roller pins located on each side of the oven door frame (Fig. 4). The hook of the hinge arms must be fully seated onto the roller pins.

3.Fully open the oven door (horizontal with floor - Fig. 1).

4.Push the door hinge locks up towards and into the oven frame on both left and right oven door hinges (Fig. 2) to the locked position; then close the oven door.

Special door care instructions

Most oven doors contain glass that can break. Read the following recommendations:

•Do not close the oven door until all the oven racks are fully in place inside the oven cavity.

•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.
