Oven Racks
• If left in the oven during self-cleaning, the racks will discolor and will not slide as easily on their tracks.
When the oven is cool, rub the rack sides with wax paper or a bit of oil to help the racks glide more easily
on their tracks.
• Clean gliding racks by hand with an abrasive cleaner or steel wool. Do not let water or cleaner enter the
rack slides.
• Do not clean the racks in a dishwasher.
• If the rack does not slide easily, it can be treated with an FDA-approved graphite lubricant. (Graphite lubri-
cant can be purchased from many stores and online.)
Lubricating the Gliding-Rack Slides
Do not lubricate the gliding rack with cooking spray or other such sprays.
1. Remove the rack from the oven. (See Using the Gliding
Rack, Pg. 27.)
2. Fully extend the rack on a surface covered with newspa-
per or cloth.
3. With paper towel, wipe debris from the slide tracks.
4. Shake the graphite lubricant before opening it. Starting
4 small drops of lubricant on the 2 bottom tracks of the
slide close to the bearing carriers (see left).
5. Repeat for the right (front, back) slide mechanism.
