Removing and Replacing Oven Racks
To remove, pull the rack forward until it stops. Lift up front 
of rack and slide out. To replace, fit the rack onto the 
guides on the oven walls. Tilt the front of the rack upward 
and slide the rack back into place.
WARNING:
Do not use aluminum foil or protective liners 
to line any part of the appliance, especially 
the oven bottom. Installation of these liners 
may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
Flat Oven Rack
This rack can be used for 
all cooking needs. Do not 
clean in the self-clean 
oven. Your oven comes 
with two flat oven racks.
CAUTION:
To avoid burns, place oven racks in desired 
positions before turning oven on. Always use 
oven mitts when the oven is warm. If a rack 
must be moved while the oven is hot, do not 
let oven mitts contact hot heating elements.
Use caution when removing oven racks from 
the lowest rack position to avoid contact with 
the hot oven door.
To avoid possible injury or damage to the 
appliance, ensure racks are installed exactly 
per installation instructions and not 
backwards or upside down.
REMOVE ALL OVEN RACKS and parts 
before starting a self-clean cycle. 
If the 
oven racks are left in the oven and remain in 
the oven cavity for a self-clean cycle,  the 
glide ability of the oven rack system will be 
damaged and will cause all oven racks to 
loose their shiny finish and or turn blue. 
Remove ALL oven racks and clean 
according to instructions provided in the Care 
& Cleaning section of this manual.
