Tappan oven glass problem, PLEASE help.....?

I broke the inside oven door glass. (note to self, after oven goes through self-cleaning mode, DO NOT then open and wipe inner door glass with a wet cloth.) Anyway, I ordered new glass, now how do I replace it? Would like to get it done before I have to admit my stupidity to my husband. Thanks for any help.

Update:

Also it is a free standing gas stove that has this oven. Just in case it makes a difference. Thanks again.

    Don't worry 'bout that brainiac.

    Just cry when you tell him you almost cut yourself when it exploded in your face! He will show his pity on you :) smile at you and realize how helpless you are without him.......Ya right!

    Actually you need to remove the door which you lift up on it when it is open and work it off. then you take the door apart and replace the glass. Simple hand tools or does hubby keep them under lock and key...

    You'll likely need to take the door apart and install it from the inside. You may need some gasket material and adhesive as well.

    I'm not sure about your specific door, so the best bet is to go to the dealer where you bought it and ask them if they might tell you more specifically how to go about this.

    If you have to remove the door, whatch out for the springs that hold it up. They can be tricky to install.
