I have a Maytag self clean oven. 2 screws on the door and 2 screws on above the hinges facing the oven door. Not so sure how to remove the oven door so that I can replace the broken inner glass in the oven door.
Thanks a million.

Thank you for your post, friend!
From my understanding after you used the self-clean feature on your Frigidaire range you now have brown and white streaks on the indoor glass. Typically streaks can be removed by cleaning the interior glass. Normally it is recommended to have a professional clean the inside glass but a consumer can do it as well. Use caution when following the steps some pieces can have sharp edges. You will need to have a Phillips head screwdriver or small quad bit driver.
A. Refer to owners guide for instructions on how to remove oven door.
B. With door in broil stop position lift door assembly off hinges.
C. Lay door on table, position so that handle hangs freely over edge of table
D. Remove 2 screws and washers that secure handle to lining assembly.
E. Remove 8 screws that attach textured steel door wrapper trim to lining assembly 3 at top, 3 at bottom, 1 on each side
F. Lift door lining up and out of wrapper trim assembly.
G. Lay lining assembly on table with wool shield/inner part of lining facing up.
H. Remove 2 glass clamps via 2 screws per clamp. These clamps attach innermost clear glass to wool shield.
I. Lift out center clear glass from wool shield, this glass just lays onto the wool shield and is held in place by the glass/ clamps in item H.
J. Clean each glass with appropriate cleaner.
K. One glass that remains in door lining assembly can at this time be cleaned without further disassembly the lining assembly.
L. Reassemble in reverse order.
Hopefully this is helpful. -Matt

I actually figured it out myself finally before I got your advise. Thanks anyway.
Just in case someone else is looking for the actual solution: here is what I did. I opened the door half way like I normally would when I bake something, then, I used screw driver to press down the little tip of both hooks(hinges), then, I slightly lifted up the door and gingled it a bit to bring it out. Hurray!!!.
To put the door back is also simple. once the door is hooked back in the right position, it would allow you to pull the door down all the way to the bottom in a flat position. (if you can't do that, it means the door is not hooked properly). Once the door is open in a flat position, you can simply pull the tip of both hooks (hinges) back up - same concept of a baby stroller stopper if you have seen one. Then, the door now can function as normal. Hope it helps others down the road.
