52 CARE AND CLEANING Removing and Replacing the Oven Door CAUTION The door is heavy. For safe, temporary storage, lay the door flat with the inside of the door facing down. IMPORTANT Special door care instructions - For safe, temporary storage, lay the door flat with the inside of the door facing down. Most oven doors contain glass that can break. Do not hit the glass with pots, pans, or any other object. Scratching, hitting, jarring, or stressing the glass may weaken its structure, causing an increased risk of breakage at a later time. Do not close the oven door until all of the oven racks are fully in place. To remove the oven door: 1. Open oven door completely, horizontal with floor (Figure 11). 2. Pull up the lock located on each hinge support toward front of the oven until the lock stops. You may have to apply a little upward pressure on the lock to pull it up (Figure 12). 3. Grasp the door by the sides, and close the door until the door frame makes contact with the unlocked hinges (Figure 13). 4. Pull the bottom of the door toward you while rotating the top of the door toward the appliance to completely disengage the hinge levers (Figure 14). Figure 11: Door hinge location Figure 12: Door hinge lock To replace the oven door: 1. Firmly grasp both sides of oven door along the door sides. Do not use the oven door handle (Figure 14). 2. Hold the oven door at the same angle as the removal position (Figure 13) Carefully insert the hinge levers into the oven frame until you feel the hinge levers are seated into the hinge notches.

Push the door hinge locks up toward and into the oven frame on both left and right oven door hinges to the locked position (Figure 12). 5. Close the oven door.
