Lift-Off Oven Door
The oven door is removable,
but it is heavy. You may need
help removing and replacing
the door
To remove the door, open it
a few inches to the special
stop position that will hold the
door open Grasp firmly on
each side and lift the door
straight up and off the hinges.
NOTE: Be careful not to place
hands between the hinge and the oven door frame as the
hinge could snap back and pinch fingers.
To replace the door, make sure the hinges are in the
special stop position. Position the slots in the bottom of
the door squarely over the hinges. Then lower the door
slowly and evenly over both hinges at the same time. If
the hinges snap back against the oven frame, pull them
back out.
To Clean the Door;
Do not allow excess water to run into any holes or slots
in the door
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. Any soap left on the liner causes additional
stains when the oven is heated.
• The area outside the gasket can be cleaned with a
soap-filled pad.
» Do not rub or clean the door gasket—the fiberglass
material of the gasket has an extremely low resistance
to abrasion. An intact and well-fitting oven door gasket
is essential for energy-efficient oven operation and
good baking results. 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.

and front of the oven door. Rinse well. You may also
use a glass cleaner to dean the glass on the outside

• Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces
and basting materials containing acids may cause
discoloration and should be wiped up immediately.
When the surface is cool, clean and rinse.
• Do not use oven cleaners, cleansing powders or
harsh abrasives such as steel wool pads on the
outside of the door.
