be left in the oven
during a self-clean
cycle.
The oven racks may be
cleaned during the
self-clean cycle, but will
lose their luster and become
hard to slide. If you choose
to leave them in during the
cycle, wiping them down
with vegetable oil after the
cycle will help them slide
easier.
For the first clean cycle,
vent the room with an
opened window or hood
vent. This will reduce the
odor when heating new
parts.
