CARE AND CLEANING:
Oven Door
To remove the door:
NOTE: Door removal is not a requirement for installation
of the product but is an added convenience.
1. Fully open the door.
2. 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.
3. Firmly grasp both sides of
the door at the top.
4. Close door to the door
removal position. The
door should be open
approximately 3" with no
obstruction above the door.
5. Lift door up and out until
both hinge arms are clear
of the slots in the range
frame.
To replace the door:
1. Firmly grasp both sides of the door at the top.
2. With the door at the same
angle as the removal position,
rest the notch in the bottom
of the left hinge arm on the
bottom edge of the left hinge
slot. The notch in the hinge
arm must be fully seated onto
the bottom of the slot. Repeat
for the right side.
3. Fully open the door. If the door will not fully open,
the notches in the bottoms of the hinge arms are not
seated correctly onto the bottom edge of the slot. Lift
the door off the range and
repeat the previous step.
4. Push the hinge locks down to
the locked position.
5. Close the oven door.

wet cloth. This should be done when the oven is
completely cool and the light is off.
