Lift-Off Oven Door
The oven door is removable for easier
access to the light bulb.
Do not lift the door by the handle.
To remove the door:
Fully open the door.
Each hinge has a hinge lock. Using
a tool, pull the hinge locks down
against the door frame.
Firmly grasp the door at the top sides.
Close the door to the stop position.
Lift the door up and pull straight
out.
To replace the door:
Firmly grasp the door at the top
sides. This is critical.
Approach the range with the door
angled in a vertical position.
Guide the hinges into the slots.
Push door in firmly while opening.
Once in position, open the door
completely. Push the hinge locks
back in toward the front frame.
To clean the inside of the door:
■ Because the area inside the gasket is
cleaned during the self-clean cycle, you
do not need to clean this by hand.
■ The area outside the gasket and the
door liner can be cleaned with a soap-
filled steel wool or plastic pad, hot
water and detergent. Rinse well with
a vinegar and water solution.
To clean the outside of the 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. Do not let
water drip into the vent openings.
■ If any stain on the door vent trim is
persistent, use a soft abrasive cleaner
and a sponge-scrubber for best results.
■ 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, cleaning
powders or harsh abrasives on the
outside of the door.
The gasket is designed with a gap
at the bottom to allow for proper
air circulation.
Do not rub or clean the door
gasket–it has an extremely low
resistance to abrasion.
If you notice the gasket becoming
worn, frayed or damaged in any
way or if it has become displaced
on the door, you should have it
replaced.
Pull the hinge locks down to the
unlocked position.
