SHOCK OR BURN HAZARD: Before replacing oven light bulb, disconnect the electrical
power to the oven at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel. Failure to do so may result in
electric shock or burn.

Oven Light Replacement
1. Disconnect power at the main fuse or circuit breaker
panel.
2. Remove oven racks.
3. Slide a flat blade screwdriver between the housing
and the glass light cover.
4. Support the glass light cover with two fingers to
prevent the cover from falling to the bottom of the
oven.
5. Gently twist the screwdriver blade to loosen the glass
light cover. Be careful not to chip the oven coating.
6. Remove the glass light cover.
7. Remove the bulb by firmly grasping and sliding the
bulb straight out until the two prongs have cleared the
ceramic holder.
8. Do not touch the glass of the new replacement bulb
with your fingers. It will cause the bulb to fail when it
lights. Grasp the replacement bulb with a clean towel
or facial tissue with the prongs facing down. Align the
two prongs in the ceramic holder, pressing gently until
the bulb is securely in the ceramic socket.
9. Slide the protective lens into the holder and push until
the clips snap into the housing.

Lift-Off Oven Door
The door is very heavy. Be careful when removing and lifting the door.
Do not lift the door by the handle.
To remove the door:
1. Fully open the door.
2. Pull the hinge locks down toward the door frame, to
the unlocked position. A tool, such as a small flat-
blade screwdriver, may be required.
3. Firmly grasp both sides of the door at the top.
4. Close door to the door removal position. The door
should be open approximately 3" with no obstruction
above the door.
5. Lift door up and out until both hinge arms are clear of
the slots.
To replace the door:
1. Firmly grasp both sides of the door at the top.
2. Starting on the left side, with the door at the same
angle as the removal position, seat the indentation of
the hinge arm into the bottom edge of the hinge slot.
The notch in the hinge arm must be fully seated into
the bottom of the slot. Repeat for right side.
3. Fully open the door. If the door will not fully open, the
indentation is not seated correctly in the bottom edge
of the slot.
4. Push the hinge locks up against the front frame of the
oven cavity, to the locked position.
5. Close the oven door.
