Do-It-Yourself Maintenance

Removing the Oven Door

The oven door(s) can be lifted off for your convenience in cleaning hard-to-reach areas inside the oven.

CAUTION

USE CAUTION WHEN REMOVING THE DOOR(S). DOORS ARE VERY HEAVY.

Make sure oven is cool and power to oven has been turned off before remov- ing the door. Failure to do so could re- sult in electrical shock or burns.

The oven doors are heavy and fragile. Use both hands to remove or replace the door.

Grasp only the sides of the oven door when removing or replacing it.

Failure to grasp the oven door firmly and properly could result in personal injury and product damage.

With the door off, never release the le- vers and try to close the hinges. With- out the weight of the door, the power- ful springs will snap the hinges closed with great force.

To Remove the Oven Door:

1.Fully open the oven door.

2.Raise the U-clip over the hook on each of the hinges to the "locked" position (see illustration below). This will prevent the hinge from snapping closed when the door is removed.

3.Grasp the door by the sides toward the back. Raise the front of the door several inches (there will be some spring resistance to overcome because of the hinge being locked). When the front of the door is high enough, you will be able to lift the hinges to clear the indents.

4.Pull the hinges out of the slots in the oven front frame.

To Replace the Oven Door:

1.Grasp the sides of the door at the center and insert the ends of the hinges into the slots in the oven front frame as far as they will go (see illus- tration below).

2.With the door open all the way, lower the two lock- ing clips.

3.Raise the oven door and make sure that it fits evenly with the front sides.

4.Close and open door slowly to be sure it is cor- rectly and securely in place.

5.Door must be straight, not out of alignment.
