Oven Racks
The racks may remain in the oven during the self-
cleaning cycle without being damaged.
Periodically, after several self-clean cycles, the oven
racks may need to be lubricated using the Graphite
Lubrication shipped with your range. To order additional
Graphite Lubrication, call our National Parts Center at
oven racks section.

a paper towel. NOTE: Any graphite lubricant wiped
away must be replaced.

the slide close to the bearing carriers.
Low Profile Oven Rack
The gray porcelain-coated low profile rack may remain
in the oven during the self-cleaning cycle without being
damaged. It may also be cleaned using a mild abrasive
cleanser. After cleaning, rinse the rack with clean water
and dry with a clean cloth.
Periodically and after clean cycles, the low profile rack
may need to be lubricated to aid sliding. Wipe the
rack edges or oven rack supports with the Graphite
