Glide rack
The glide rack is an extendable rack that makes food
preparation easier. It has glide tracks that allow the
rack to be pulled away from the oven without rubbing
the sides of the oven wall.
It is recommended to remove all racks from the
oven during self-clean cycles, but porcelain racks
may be left in the oven if they are soiled. After a
self-clean cycle, or anytime the gliding is rough,
the glide racks should be treated with graphite
lubrication. For instructions on how to care for
your oven racks, see “Caring for Your Porcelain
Enameled Glide Racks” in the Care and Cleaning
section.

Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using
the oven. When cooking, the oven interior and
exterior, as well as the oven racks, will become
very hot which can cause burns.
Removing and replacing the glide racks
To remove the glide rack:
1. Lift up on the release lever located across the lower
front of the rack, as shown in figure 1.
2. While holding up the release lever (see figure 2),
pull the glide rack out of the oven until the stop
position is reached, use two hands if necessary.
3. Using both hands, grasp the upper and lower
portions of the glide rack (see figure 3).
4. Lift up the front of the rack slightly and continue to
pull the rack away from the oven.

together when removing or handling the glide rack.
The rack portions move independently and are
difficult to handle unless held together.
To replace the glide rack:
1. Grasp both upper and lower portions of the glide
rack (see figure 3).
2. Lift and hold the rack level between the oven cavity
walls.
3. Tilt the front of the rack upward slightly and slide
the rack completely into position. Some force may
be necessary to make sure the oven rack has
snapped into place.
