2.Using 2 hands, gently pull the rack and the slide rails at the same time to the “V” cutout. Angle the rack so that the front is higher than the back, and gently pull rack past “V” cutout and then out of the oven.

To avoid damage to the sliding shelves, do not place more than 25 lbs (11.4 kg) on the rack.

Do not clean the roll-out rack in a dishwasher. It may remove the rack’s lubricant and affect its ability to slide.

See the “General Cleaning” section for more information.
