How to reclaim space in flashback recovery area?

Dear all,

I have the message below logged in my alert log:

"db_recovery_file_dest_size of 6144 MB is 73.39% used. This is a user-specified limit on the amount of space that will be used by this
database for recovery-related files, and does not reflect the amount of space available in the underlying filesystem or ASM diskgroup."

A query of v$flash_recovery_area_usage shows that there are a percent_space_reclaimable of 72.66 out of 73.18 for the flashbacklog.

My daily rman backups does the followings:

crosscheck backupset;
crosscheck copy;
delete noprompt obsolete;


How can I reclaim these free space?

Howdy, Stranger!
