Step-by-Step Method to Clean Between Glass Panels
Turn Off and Cool Down the Oven
Before beginning, make sure the oven is completely turned off and cooled down to avoid burns or accidents.
Check Your Owner’s Manual
Some ovens allow for easy disassembly of the door, while others require more effort. Refer to your owner’s manual to understand how to safely access the glass panels.
Remove the Door (If Necessary)
Open the oven door completely and locate the hinges. In many cases, you can unlock and gently lift the door off its hinges. Place it on a soft surface like a towel to prevent scratches.
For hard-to-reach areas, wrap the damp cloth around a wire hanger or long tool and secure it with rubber bands. Carefully insert the tool between the glass panels and wipe away the grime.
Tackle Stubborn Stains
If there are baked-on stains, make a paste with baking soda and water. Apply it gently to the affected area using the wrapped cloth or pad, then wipe clean with a damp microfiber cloth.
Rinse and Dry
After cleaning, use a clean, damp cloth to rinse the glass. Follow up with a dry microfiber cloth to prevent streaks.
Reassemble the Door
Once the glass is clean and dry, carefully reassemble the oven door by securing the screws and placing the door back onto its hinges.
Tips for Easier Maintenance
Wipe Spills Immediately: Cleaning spills as soon as the oven cools will prevent grime from settling between the glass panels.
Use a Protective Sheet: Consider using an oven liner to catch spills and drips that can cause stains.
