Removing/Re-installing the Convection Filter, cont.

Clips

•

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.

NOTE

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 lubricant can be purchased from many stores and online.)

Centering the filter over the fan hole, carefully

hook the metal clips (back of filter) over the metal

bar across the hole. Do not scratch the oven's

porcelain with the filter.

Shake the graphite lubricant before opening it.

Starting with the rack's left (front, back) slide

mechanism, place 4 small drops of lubricant on

the 2 bottom tracks of the slide close to the

bearing carriers (see left).

Repeat for the right (front, back) slide

mechanism.

Do not lubricate the gliding rack with cooking spray or other such sprays.
