I need to remove the oven door to clean the glass inside the door. How do I do that?

[/FONT][FONT=ArialMT][LEFT]lift and pull out on the hinges, and remove

MUCH easier said than done! Husband can’t even get the hinges all the way out. Have to pay repair person just so I can clean inside of front glass panel. Frustrating!
Coolintx, It can be a bit tricky, especially if there’s something damaged in the hinge assembly. You also need to keep the door assembly even and level, as you remove it from the oven or the assembly will have a tendency to “hang up” which can get frustrating.
Good Luck and Thanks,
