Step 3: Remove the Top Bar (If Present)
- Some oven doors have a top bar or frame that secures the glass.
- Use a screwdriver, if necessary, to remove the screws holding the bar in place.
- Set the bar aside in a safe location.
Step 4: Extract the Glass Pane
- Slide the glass pane out carefully, supporting it with both hands to prevent it from slipping or cracking.
- Place the glass on a flat, padded surface, like a towel or soft cloth, to avoid scratches.
Step 5: Clean the Glass
- Prepare a cleaning solution using warm water and dish soap, or use a specialized glass cleaner.
- For tough stains, make a paste with baking soda and water, apply it to the stains, and let it sit for 10 minutes. Scrub gently with a non-abrasive sponge.
- Rinse the glass with clean water and dry thoroughly with a microfiber cloth to prevent streaks.
Step 6: Reassemble the Oven Door
- Reinsert the glass pane into its original position, ensuring it fits securely.
- Reattach the top bar, if applicable, and tighten the screws.
- Rotate the locks back to their “locked” position to secure the glass.
Tips for Safe Cleaning
- Handle with Care: Oven glass is heavy and fragile. Always use both hands when handling it.
- Avoid Abrasive Tools: Use soft sponges or cloths to prevent scratching the glass.
- Inspect for Damage: Check for cracks or damaged locks before reassembling to ensure safety.
