Carefully grasp a corner of the protective
shipping film with your fingers and slowly
peel it from the appliance surface. Do not use
any sharp items to remove the film. Remove
all of the film before using the appliance for
the first time.
To assure no damage is done to the finish
of the product, the safest way to remove the
adhesive from packaging tape on new
appliances is an application of a household
liquid dishwashing detergent. Apply with a
soft cloth and allow to soak.
NOTE: The adhesive must be removed from all parts.
It cannot be removed if it is baked on.
Care and cleaning of the oven.
Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the oven.
How to Remove Protective Shipping Film and Packaging Tape
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:
Fully open the door.
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.
Firmly grasp both sides of the door at
the top.
Close door to the door removal position
(see illustration).
Lift door up and out until the hinge
arm is clear of the slot.
To replace the door:
Firmly grasp both sides of the door at
the top.
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.
Fully open the door. If the door will not
fully open, the indentation is not seated
correctly in the bottom edge of the slot.
Push the hinge locks up against the
front frame of the oven cavity, to the
locked position.
Close the oven door.

Control Knob
(on some models)
The control knobs may be removed for easier cleaning.
Make sure the knobs are in the OFF positions
and pull them straight off the stems for
cleaning.
The knobs can be cleaned in a dishwasher or
they may also be washed with soap and water.
Make sure the inside of the knobs are dry
before replacing.
Replace the knobs in the OFF position to
ensure proper placement.
Control Panel
It’s a good idea to wipe the control
panel after each use. Clean with mild soap
and water or vinegar and water, rinse with
clean water and polish dry with a soft cloth.
When cleaning, the control panel should be
at room temperature and not in direct
sunlight. Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid
cleansers, plastic scouring pads or oven
cleaners on the control panel—they will
damage the finish. A 50/50 solution of
vinegar and hot water works well.
