52 Care and Cleaning
CARING FOR YOUR GLIDE RACKS
Handle oven racks only when they are cool. After cooking or
after the self clean cycle, racks will be very hot and can cause
burns.
Important Notes:
• The Glide Rack is porcelain enameled and may be left in
the oven to be cleaned during the self-clean cycle. After the
cycle, or anytime the gliding is rough, the glide rack
extension tracks 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. To order graphite
lubrication, contact your installer, servicer, or dealer.
• 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 fresh-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 bottom of the “V” and
the glide channels. Keeping the frame sides lightly lubri-
cated allows the entire rack to slide easily when changing
rack positions.
8. Replace rack in oven right-side up.
