Lower Oven General Care & Cleaning (continued)

SPECIAL DOOR CARE INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT

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

Do not close the oven door until all the interior oven racks are fully inserted and retracted to the back of the oven.

Do not hit the glass with pots, pans, or any other object. The oven door glass may break or even break at a later time unexpectedly.

Scratching, hitting, jarring or stressing the oven door glass may weaken its structure causing an increased risk of breakage at a later time.

You may use a glass cleaner on the outside of the oven door glass. Do not spray or allow water or the cleaner to enter or drip down into the oven door vents. Spray cleaner on cloth first and then wipe the oven door clean.

Do not use strong oven cleaners, powders or any harsh abrasive cleaning materials on the outside of the oven door or glass.

Never clean the oven door gasket. The oven door gasket should always clean during the Self-clean cycle.

CHANGING LOWER OVEN LIGHTS

CAUTION

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

The lower oven light bulbs are located on both side of the oven cavity and both are covered with a glass shield. The glass shield must be in place whenever the oven is in use.

Replacing the lower oven interior light bulbs:

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

2.Remove lower oven interior light shield as illustrated below.

3.Replace bulb with a new T-4 type 40 Watt Halogen appliance bulb. Please note: do not allow your fingers to touch the new bulb when replacing. This will shorten the life of the new bulb. Use a paper towel to cover the new bulb when installing.

4.Replace glass shield over bulb.

5.Turn power back on again at the main source (or plug the appliance back in).

6.The clock will then need to be reset.
