Rack Guides

To insert, locate mounting screws on oven side walls.
Place rack guide mounting tabs over the screws and slide down until fully seated.

- White insulation may be visible in the bottom holes the rack guides fit into, this is normal.
- Rack guides are left and right side specific. If the guides are switched, the racks will not fit.
- The straight edge of the rack guide faces the rear of the oven and the curved side faces the front.
- Rack guides for a DF48 are different for the small and large ovens. If the racks are too wide in one oven and too narrow in the other oven, swap the rack guides to the other cavity.

Regular Oven Racks

To insert, place the rack anti-tip lock under side rack guide rails.
Slide rack back and lift up to clear rack stops.
Continue to slide rack back until completely inside the oven.

- Rack position one is the bottom most location.
- The bottom oven rack has a full-extension capability which is supported by the oven door (excluding 18" oven).
- The bottom oven rack is angled upwards slightly and only goes in bottom position.
- With the rack in the lowest rack guide position, slide it onto door guides for greater stability and accessibility.
- Verify racks are not upside down or backwards.
- For 48" ovens, both rack guides and racks are oven specific, ensure they are installed in the proper sized oven.

Full Extension Racks

To insert a full-extension easy glide rack place the two rear tabs onto the rack guide (one tab above and one below).
Angle the rack slightly and slide back until the front rack notch engages the front rack guide.
To remove a full-extension easy glide rack pull the rack all the way forward, then grab the front of the rack and pull up and out.
