Removing, Assembling and Dismantling the Oven Door

Removing and dismantling the oven door may be needed to achieve better cleaning performance. The oven door contains glass that can break. Care should be taken when removing, assembling and dismantling the oven door.

Caution

  • To prevent burns, wait until the oven has cooled down before touching any of its parts.

  • The door is very heavy. Be careful when removing, lifting and replacing the door.

  • Do not lift the door by its handle. The handle is not designed to support the weight of the door, doing so can result in serious damage to the door of the appliance.

  • 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 the oven racks are fully in place.
