Unpacking and Removing Oven Doors

Warning

  • Keep packing materials out of the reach of children. Packaging material can be dangerous for children. There is a risk of suffocation.

  • You should use two or more people to move and install the appliance. (Excessive Weight Hazard) Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

  • Do not use the door handles to push or pull the appliance during installation or when moving the appliance out for cleaning or service. Doing so can result in serious damage to the door of the appliance.

  • To reduce the risk of burns, do not move this appliance while it is hot.

Note

  • To remove any remaining tape or glue, rub the area briskly with your thumb. Tape or glue residue can also be easily removed by rubbing a small amount of liquid dish soap over the adhesive with your fingers. Wipe with warm water and dry.

  • Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These products can damage the surface of your appliance.

  • Door removal is not a requirement for installation of the oven, but is an added convenience.

Unpacking Materials

Remove any packing material from the oven before installing the oven.

  • Remove all tape from around the oven.

  • Open the oven door and remove packaging materials and oven racks inside the oven.

Removing Lower Oven Door

  • Fully open the door.

  • Unlock the hinge locks, rotating them as far toward the open door frame as they will go.

    1. Slot

    2. Hinge lock

    3. Hinge arm

  • Firmly grasp both sides of the door at the top.

  • Close the door to the removal position (approximately five degrees d) which is halfway between the broil stop position and fully closed. If the position is correct, the hinge arms will move freely.

  • Lift door up and out until the hinge arm is clear of the slot. Set the door aside on a protected surface.

  • Place the oven on a table or platform even with the cutout opening. The table or platform must support 202 lbs (92 kg) for a combination wall oven.

Note

  • Use two hands to remove lower oven door.

  • Do not lift the door by the handle. The oven door is very heavy. Firmly grasp the door by the sides before lifting it off the hinges.

  • Do not lay the oven door on its handle. Doing so may cause dents or scratches.
