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.
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.

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.
7. Apply a thin layer of cooking oil to the outer frame of the glide
rack as shown below. Keeping the frame sides lightly lubri-
cated allows the entire rack to slide easily when changing rack
positions.
Replace rack in oven right side up.
