KitchenAid KOCE500ESS Control Guide

To initiate a self-cleaning cycle, remove all oven racks and accessories. Close the oven door and press the "Clean" button. Select your desired cleaning level and duration, then press "Start." Ensure ventilation in your kitchen during the cycle.
Check if the oven is properly connected to a power source. Ensure that the circuit breaker is not tripped. If the issue persists, consider calibrating the oven temperature settings or contacting a professional technician.
Soak the racks in a mixture of warm water and dish soap for several hours. Use a non-abrasive scrubber to remove any remaining residue, then rinse and dry thoroughly before reinserting them into the oven.
It is not recommended to use aluminum foil to cover the oven bottom as it can cause heat distribution issues. However, you can use foil on a baking tray to catch drips or spills.
Ensure the oven is cool and unplugged. Remove the glass light cover by turning it counterclockwise. Replace the bulb with a new one of the same type and wattage, then reattach the glass cover.
Ensure that the hinges are clean and free of debris. Regularly lubricate the hinges with a high-temperature lubricant to prevent sticking. Avoid slamming the oven door to maintain proper alignment.
Refer to the oven's user manual for specific error code meanings. Common solutions include resetting the power by unplugging the oven for a few minutes or performing a system reset. If the error persists, contact customer support.
Press the "Convection" button on the control panel. Select the desired temperature and cooking time using the arrow buttons. Press "Start" to begin the convection cooking process.
Clean the filters every six months or more frequently if you notice reduced efficiency. Wash with warm, soapy water, rinse, and dry thoroughly before reinserting them into the oven.
Check for any physical obstructions or moisture on the touch panel. If unresponsive, perform a soft reset by turning off the oven's power for a few minutes. If the issue persists, seek assistance from a technician.
