The metal rack is a cooling rack. (At least, that's how I use it.) Pull the stone and pizza out of the oven and then set it onto the rack - just like you would do with a cookie sheet full of cookies.
You are supposed to preheat the pizza stone - just stick it into the cold oven, preheat the oven, then put the prepared pizza onto the hot stone.
The stone is also great for reheating cold pizza. Pizza reheated in the microwave can get soggy, but pizza reheated on a stone stays nice and crisp.
