Lift-Off Oven Door
The oven door is removable,
but it is heavy. You may need
help removing and replacing
the door. Do not lift the door by
the handle. This can cause the
glass to break or can cause
damage to 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.
While working in the oven area, cover the hinges
with towels or empty paper towel rolls to prevent
pinched fingers and chipping the porcelain enamel
on the frame.

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 hinges snap back against the oven frame, pull
them back out.

Because the area inside the gasket is cleaned during
the self clean cycle, you do not need to clean this by

stains when the oven is heated.

sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes,
sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on
the surface. They may cause a dull spot even after
cleaning.
If necessary, you may use an oven cleaner.
