Jérôme.......140° Fahrenheit will be 60° Celsius. You don't want to do 140° Celsius. That would be 284° Fahrenheit. 
I use two pieces of 1/4" (6.35 mm) thick glass. It has just enough weight to apply a gentle, even pressure to the record. The outer groove and inner lable areas on an album are slightly thicker than the area where the grooves exist, so the warps are flattened without damage to the groove surface. Keep an eye on the album while you do this, and don't leave it in the oven any longer than necessary. You can remove the top layer of glass once you take it from the oven, but leave the album on the bottom layer of glass until it cools. I have flattened many albums with this process, and always achieved good results.
