CARE AND CLEANING
Removing and Replacing the Oven Door
IMPORTANT
Clean the oven door with a wet sponge only. Dry
it with a soft cloth. Do not use steel wool, acids or
abrasive materials as they can damage the oven
surface. Clean the oven control panel with the
same precautions.
CAUTION
The door is heavy. For safe, temporary storage,
lay the door flat with the inside of the door facing
down. Do not use the appliance without the inter-
nal glass panel.

To remove the oven door:
1. Open the door fully, horizontal with the floor,
and hold the two door hinges (Figure 22).
2. Lift and turn/pull the levers on both of the
door hinge locks down from the oven frame
completely towards the oven door (Figure 23).
A tool such as a small flat-blade screwdriver
may be required.
3. Firmly grasp both sides of oven door along
the door sides. Do not use the oven door
handle. Close the oven door halfway to the
first opening position. Then, pull forward and
remove the door from its seat (Figure 24).
4. Put the door on a soft cloth on a stable surface
(Figure 25).
5. Clean the glass panel with water and soap. Dry
the glass panel carefully.

IMPORTANT
Special door care instructions - Most oven doors
contain glass that can break. Do not close the
oven door until all the oven racks are fully in
place. Do not hit the glass with pots, pans, or any
other object. Scratching, hitting, jarring, or stress-
ing the glass may weaken its structure causing an
increased risk of breakage at a later time.
