Removing and Replacing the Oven Door (all models)

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 - See Fig. 1).

2.Remove 2 screws located on the inside of the oven door liner (See A Fig. 2)

3. Insert the 2 screws into the door hinge holes located on the side of the hinge arm, one into each hinge (See B Fig. 2).

4.Close oven door until the door stops, (Do not force the door to close any further). The placement of these screws should keep door open in about a 45 degree

Fig. 1	position.
	5. Grasp oven door firmly on both sides and slide door up and off hinges at the
	same angle. (See Fig. 3)

6.To clean oven door, follow the instructions provided in the Cleaning Chart at the beginning of the Care & Cleaning section (See Door Liner).

	To Replace Oven Door:
	1. Be sure the hinge arms remain at the 45 degree angle position. Be sure the
	screws are still locking the hinge arms from moving. If the screws fall out of
	the hinge holes, the hinge(s) may snap back against the oven frame and could

2.Hold door at the sides near the top while resting the lower front of door on your knee. Insert the door channels at the bottom of door over the door hinges, (See

Fig. 3).

3. Allow the door to slide down into the door hinges evenly at the same 45 degree angle. The hinge arms should be inserted into the bottom corners as far as they can go.

4. Open door completely (horizontal with floor) and remove both screws from holes in door hinges.

5. Reinstall the 2 screws into the door liner (See C Fig. 2).

6. If the door is not in alignment with the oven frame, remove door and repeat the above steps.

Changing the Oven Light (some models)

On some models, the oven light automatically turns on when the door is opened. Some models have a switch located on the control panel to turn on the light. The oven light is located at the rear of the oven.

To replace the oven light:

1. Turn electrical power off at the main source or unplug the range.

2. Replace bulb with a new 40 watt appliance bulb.

3. Turn power back on again at the main source (or plug the range back in).

4. The clock will then need to be reset. To reset, see Setting Surface & Oven Controls in this Use & Care Manual.

Be sure the range is unplugged and all parts are COOL before replacing oven light. Wear a leather-faced glove for protection against possible broken glass.
