Oven Door
CAUTIONS:
• Do not place excessive weight
on or stand on an open oven
door. This could cause the range
to tip over, break the door, or
injure the user.
• Do not attempt to open or close
door or operate oven until door
is properly replaced.
• Never place fingers between
hinge and front oven frame.
Hinge arms are spring mounted.
If accidentally hit, the hinge will
slam shut against oven frame
and could injure your fingers.
To remove:
1. When cool, open the oven door to the
first stop position (opened about four
inches).
2. Grasp door at
each side. Do
not use the door
handle to lift
door.
3. Lift up evenly until door clears hinge
arms.
To replace:
1. Grasp door at each side.
2. Align slots in the door with the hinge
arms on the range.
3. Slide the door down onto the hinge
arms until the door is completely seated
on the hinges. Push down on the top
corners of the door to completely seat

pear crooked.
NOTE: The oven door on a new range
may feel “spongy” when it is closed.
This is normal and will decrease with
use.

To protect the oven door window:
