GE Spacemaker microwave JVM1650WH01 door handle broken

Greetings most honorable masters,

The door handle of my microwave broke. I found this link to make the repair and ordered the replacement handle from RepairClinic. For the life of me, I can not figure out how to remove the door. The instructions below read, "Remove the 4 (2 on top & 2 on bottom) 5/16" head screws on door hinges and #2 phillips head screw on top. Door will pull away from unit with the hinges attached to the door." Can someone point me to the part #'s in the schematic for these screws? Many thanks!

I was able to remove the door just by lifting it off the hinges (D'oH!!). Now I just need to figure out how to gently pry away the choke cover...

Mission accomplished!

btw, there were no screws to remove other than the two sheet metal screws that hold the handle to the door (accessed after removing the choke cover). A flat blade screwdriver and a little patience is all it took to pry off the cover. Hope this helps someone with their future DIY repair.
