CARE AND CLEANING Caring for your glide racks Handle oven racks only when they are cool. After cooking or after the clean cycle, racks will be very hot and can cause burns. Important Notes: • It is recommended to remove all racks from the oven during clean cycles. After a clean cycle, or anytime the gliding is rough, the glide racks should be treated with graphite lubrication. • Do not use cooking oil, cooking spray, or other oil-based lubrication products on the glide rack extension tracks. Use only the graphite lubrication in this area. • It is important that the parts of the rack that contact the oven sides always have a light coating of vegetable oil. Apply a thin layer of vegetable oil to the sides of the rack after every clean cycle and when the rack becomes difficult to reposition in the oven. To lubricate the glide rack: 1. Remove the rack from the oven and place the rack on a large flat surface covered with newspaper or scrap cloth. Fully extend the rack. 2. Wipe away debris and crumbs from the glide track using a cloth or sponge. 4. Extend and return the glide rack several times along the tracks to distribute the lubrication. 5. Turn glide rack over. Shake graphite lubrication very well before applying. Place four drops of graphite lubrication along the tracks. Repeat on both sides of the glide rack. 6. Extend and return the glide rack several times along the tracks to distribute the lubrication. 3. Shake graphite lubrication very well before applying. Place four drops of graphite lubrication along the tracks (see area circled on figure below). Repeat on both sides of the glide rack. 7. Apply a thin layer of cooking oil to the outer frame of the glide rack as shown below. Keeping the frame sides lightly lubricated allows the entire rack to slide easily when changing rack positions. Replace rack in oven right side up. 32
