Removed oven rack shelves must be replaced at the end of service.

• A. They may be replaced at the end of service
• B. They should be discarded
• C. They must be replaced at the end of service
• D. They must be cleaned and stored

Answer: (C)

Removing oven rack shelves during service means they must be put back in place before the service ends. Reinstalling them returns the oven to its proper ready-to-use configuration, keeps the equipment safe to operate, and ensures everything is in its correct place for the next service. Simply cleaning and storing the racks doesn’t restore the oven to a complete, safe state, and discarding them would be wasteful and against standard procedures.
