Care and cleaning of the range.
Lift-Off Oven Door
The door is very heavy. Be careful when
removing and lifting the door. Do not lift door
by the handle.
If improperly
removed, oven
door hinges may suddenly open and can
cause personal injury to appendages near
the hinge. Follow instructions below to
avoid a risk of injury when removing and
re-installing the oven door.
To remove the door:
Fully open the oven door.
On each hinge, slide the hinge lock up,
making sure it snaps into its fully raised
position.
Firmly grasp both sides of the door at near
the top.
Close door until the top of the door is
approximately 3” from the range frame.
Lift door up and away from the range until
both hinge arms are clear of the slots in
the range frame.
To replace the door:
Firmly grasp both sides of the door near
the top.
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.
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 Step 2.
Push the hinge

Oven Heating Elements
Do not clean the bake element or the broil
element. Any soil will burn off when the
elements are heated.
To clean the oven floor, gently lift the bake
element. On some models, the bake element is
not exposed and is under the oven floor. Clean
with warm, soapy water.
Oven Racks
All oven racks may be cleaned by hand with an
abrasive cleaner or steel wool. After cleaning,
rinse the racks with clean water and dry with
a clean cloth. Gray porcelain-coated oven
racks may remain in the oven during the self-
cleaning cycle without being damaged. The
shiny, silver-colored oven racks may remain in
the oven during the self-cleaning cycle, but they
will lose their luster and become hard to slide.
It will be necessary to grease all oven rack side
edges with a light coating of vegetable oil after
cleaning them by hand or in the oven. This will
help maintain the ease of sliding the racks in
and out of the oven.

To replace the drawer:
